Desires and Objects

I just realized the interest in AI is as a hack. That hey it somehow one shots or builds an application that makes me a millionaire, or I use it at job and it saves me like six hours per day and I’m working only two hours something like that. I think AI is all about that magic of going up fast or getting leisure. That’s all people care about. At least the wider tam is just that.

It’s basically that people will see a object, they will have fantasies and dreams about it, and you are supposed to feed into those. I guess that is really easy one. That is really scalable instead of trying to manufacture something from scratch. For example, you can try to manufacture want for something like explainers of AI or you can tap into the innate want of someone to want to look beautiful.

Okay, now then search like this. Now we know that there are things that people want, and there are generators for those things, or object of interest for those things, and we make content around it and bin go. People wanna be more hot, generators are face, so we target that. People wanna be rich. AI is an object. We target that. So you have to come up with ideas like this.

desire → fantasy-bearing object → endless instances → content.

That avoids the trap of picking a “topic” and then trying to force people to care.

The best objects already do half the persuasion for you. A face already activates beauty. A supercar already activates status. AI already activates get rich quick and leverage.
