ChatGPT is becoming "a shopping AI agent". What is the future of Google, then?

Yesterday, I came across an article on TechCrunch that OpenAI is upgrading ChatGPT search with shopping features.

Slowly but surely, ChatGPT is taking over Google's role and doing it well. I ve noticed it myself, especially how it s replaced much of my browsing.

Will creativity lose its meaning in the age of AI?

Lately, I ve been reflecting on the quiet fear that, as AI tools become better at creating art, writing, and design, creativity itself might lose its meaning.

It feels like a valid concern because:

  • AI can produce beautiful art and music faster than a human ever could,

  • Many creative fields are shifting from original creation to "curating" or "editing" AI outputs,

  • Instant generation often replaces slow, imperfect human exploration,

  • Younger generations are growing up with AI co-creation as the norm, not the exception.

I wonder:
Will true creativity still matter when "good enough" is instantly available?

Founders in stealth / pre-launch - why? (+ dinner in SF!)

It used to be fashionable to be "in stealth," but then our collective wisdom shifted to "launch early and launch often." In my experience, there are two good reasons for this:

The first reason is that it's often more important to figure out whether people want what you're building than it is to figure out whether you can build the best possible version of it. Launching early gives you the opportunity to either pivot or iterate quickly. Launching is learning.

Is it morally right to cheat with AI? Contradictory products deal with this idea in different ways.

I saw an article on TechCrunch discussing Cluely (created by Chungin Roy Lee and Neel Shanmugam).

TL;DR: The AI tool, originally developed to cheat on software engineering interviews, now helps users cheat on exams, sales calls, and job interviews through a hidden in-browser window. And now has raised $5+ million.

Exploring a new investing tool for beginners — looking to validate a few assumptions

Hey all I m building a side project aimed at helping beginner investors feel more confident and informed when making investment decisions.

A pattern I keep seeing is that newer investors often feel overwhelmed by charts, market news, or risk, and struggle to understand how real-world events affect their portfolios.

I m exploring an idea for a tool that simplifies this experience not by giving financial advice, but by making the implications of investment choices easier to grasp in a more personalized and intuitive way.

If you ve ever felt confused or hesitant while investing (or know someone who has), I d love your help validating a few assumptions. I put together a short, anonymous 3-minute survey to gather insights:

What strategies do you usually use for growing your social media and newsletter when you stagnate?

A few weeks ago, I started to feel like I had hit a plateau on social media, especially with my Substack newsletter. I couldn t seem to get past a certain number of subscribers (stagnation).

In similar situations, I ve noticed that people often either:
run a giveaway
pay for ads

What questions do you have about A.I. that you're too embarrassed to ask?

Hi all. Sarah here, Head of Content @ Product Hunt. I'm starting up a new article series in our AI newsletter, Deeper Learning, called Ask Kitty. It's a place where you can ask the questions you've been wondering about A.I. but have been too shy to ask. Why? One thing I've learned about A.I. is that a lot of people in tech assume you know a lot of things, and very few people actually know the things (or know them in-depth enough to explain them simply). Sometimes this dynamic prevents us from asking questions. And asking questions is one of the best ways to reduce our knowledge gap. And yes, you could ask ChatGPT, but based on my experience you're unlikely to get the full context you need. Not only will I work to answer your questions, I'll work to find the right people to help me answer them! So ask away!
