I keep hearing about AI taking jobs.

I have to admit that I have seen a lot of people complaining about job cuts, but that was in the local market.

Early-stage building is full of hacks and sometimes the fastest, scrappiest experiments teach you more than months of proper work.

I ve heard of people testing demand with:

• A fake door sign-up button that went nowhere (but proved interest)

• A quick landing page with nothing behind it

• Cold DMs to potential users with a mockup

• Even just a Google Form dressed up as a product
