There are 4 questions a startup should ask themselves about building a startup that uses generativeAI. I presented those questions & my views on their answers at Saastr’s Workshop Wednesday. The last slide contains the prompts for the images in the presentation. I had a blast putting this deck together.
First, it models out the annual cash flow of a businesses (say 10 years out), and discounts the future value of those cash flows back to present value (this is why software businesses are sensitive to interest rates - as rates go up, so does the discount rate). , you’d build a DCF (discounted cash flow) analysis.
AI = Data + Compute I’ll continue beating this drum, but we got two great quotes from Azure and AWS this week. Satya at Microsoft said “Every AI app starts with data and having a comprehensive data and analytics platform is more important than ever.” AWS reports next week. So what did we learn?
