My First Million

“Reddit For Moms” - A Validated Business Idea No One Is Doing

\ -BUSINESS IDEA- 1. Reddit for Moms.

[YouTube Link:

The speaker proposes a business idea for an app similar to Reddit but specifically designed for millennial moms. The speaker highlights the success of Facebook groups like \"Better than Google,\" which attract a large number of millennial women seeking advice and recommendations from their peers. The speaker argues that an app specifically designed for this demographic, with features that promote trust and discourage trolling, would be incredibly valuable. The speaker believes that moms, who control household budgets, are a highly desirable customer segment. The app would provide a platform for moms to connect with each other, share their experiences, and get advice on a variety of topics. The speaker believes that the app would be highly addictive and would create a sense of community among its users.

-BUSINESS LEARNING- 1. Popularity of Counter-Culture.

[YouTube Link:

The speaker observes a recurring pattern in the evolution of cultural trends, noting that the rise of a dominant platform or ideology often creates a demand for its opposite. The speaker cites examples like the emergence of Snapchat as a counterpoint to Facebook's permanence and public nature, and the popularity of figures like Andrew Tate and Donald Trump as a reaction to what some perceive as excessive \"wokeness.\" This pattern suggests that entrepreneurs can capitalize on nascent counter-cultural movements by offering products or services that cater to the desire for alternatives to the mainstream. By recognizing and tapping into these unmet needs, businesses can position themselves for success.

OpenAI has released GPT-40 Mini, a smaller, faster, and more affordable version of its GPT language model. It scores 82% on the MLU benchmark, outperforming GPT-4 in chat preferences on the LM Cy leaderboard. Priced at 15 cents per million input tokens and 60 cents per million output tokens, it's 60% cheaper than GPT-3.5 Turbo. This affordability is crucial due to the rise of local, high-performing models. GPT-40 Mini supports text and vision in its API, with future support for text, image, video, and audio inputs and outputs. It has a context window of 128,000 tokens and knowledge up to October 2023. Benchmarks show GPT-40 Mini closely trailing GPT-40 in performance across various tasks.
