Introducing TerifAI (terrify) - the ai that steals your voice 😱

It's an educational experience that shows why AI has become a catalyst to voice phishing.

Talk to TerifAI for about a minute and it:

• memorizes basic facts about you
• mimics your talking style
• and clones your voice and speaks back to you with it

All of this automated and done in seconds...

Try it out yourself and with friends/family and share your reactions!

True or false:

If you’re mad at your client, it means you’re not charging them enough.

90% of B2B S&M budgets are literally spent on this

@CFDevelop It doesn’t make any sense. A business minded developer is one of the most valuable individuals out there but most are separated from the business and the customer. Intentionally!

Why does management value the opinions of product owners / designers over developers?

Sure, I write code, but my actual damn profession is building and designing apps. I've been doing it for over 20 years. Most "product people" just started fiddling with Figma a few years ago

The power of the PIVOT:

started with a generic AI profile picture app
it mostly flopped (bc not differentiated)
they noticed ONE instagram reel got 15K views
so they pivoted AI profile pics FOR PETS
made $10k in first 6 weeks

When in doubt, niche down!

Staying busy vs being productive:

Another helpful life framework:

Seek density over volume.

• 100 potent words > 1000 rambling words

• 100 engaged followers > 10000 bots

• 90 minutes of focused work > 6 hours of distraction

• 3 deep friendships > 100 shallow "friends"

Density metrics > vanity metrics.

Build an email list.

Many claim it's the best business asset they have.

Build it. Give value to the people inside of it. Nurture it. Love it. Profit from it.

safe is risky

So I quit my job as a director of engineering earlier this year. I was really burned out.

I spent the last few months focusing on open-source development with the intention of going back to work as an engineer (not a manager).

It's been amazing.

show, don’t tell

the best way to show people who you are is to build

Saying "no" to everything that is not on your top list of priorities is a mandatory requirement for startup founders because focus is so key.
