Startups After AI: The 1 person 1 billion dollar company w/ Dave Sifry | E23
What happens when a billion-dollar company can be built by a team of one, or just a few, thanks to AI? In this episode, we explore how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing work, mentorship, entrepreneurship, and organizational structure.
Our guest, a veteran tech entrepreneur Dave Sifry, shares hard-won lessons from scaling startups like Technorati, insights on company growth breakpoints, and candid reflections on how Gen Z and Gen X are navigating this new world.
