I think the biggest AI boom was in 2023-2024, but only now have I noticed improvements that have positively helped many businesses.

If I had to name three things that have had a very positive impact on business, they are:

• Improved image creation using GPT Chat

• Realistic videos through AI, where costs are reduced by hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars (production video agency vs. a few custom prompts)

• "vibe coding" tools that show me a visual and I can reverse query and learn why the code is written in such a way that I got a certain result.

This summer, we made a bold decision to launch on Product Hunt. The problem? We had zero idea how to actually do it.

Well, almost zero. Our CTO @mokosiy was a massive Product Hunt fan, and his enthusiasm was our only compass. He armed us with the right stack: Cursor for code, PostHog for analytics, latest .NET and Avalonia to build the gorgeous app.

The Reality Check By August, the "Launching Soon" label we were banking on had vanished. We were flying blind. That's when the real work began. I didn't just read the guidelines; I followed them to the letter. We had to change the date of the Product Hunt launch five times. We realized that we weren't ready.

I see many countries promoting social media to raise the age for using it (e.g., Australia, the UK, etc.).

The sad thing is that some parents are already giving their toddlers a tablet to "entertain" them. This hurts the child's brain development. Not to mention when they get on social media and are exposed to various trends.
