if you as an entrepreneur hate cluely, you're a boomer who's going to get left behind. tech is no longer the moat, distribution is. going viral is hard and is a skill.

I could unironically build Cluely in 3 days

I just don't think it's a very good product

I don't think raising on hype is a good thesis, ChatGPT proves that the quickest way to 100m users is making something useful

I'd raise capital from people who are betting on what I'm building

When everyone is chasing attention, substance is the valuable commodity

Inside you there are two wolves

pretty awful take from someone who raised entirely on AI agent hype in 2024

I went viral, I thought it was more important before tbh

Subdtance is the only thing that matters when everyone else is trying to go viral all day

Didnt raise, crowdfunded. Job wasnt done, agents are a GPT class problem, not a ycombinator problem.
