Last night Silicon Valley's Jian-Yang launched his new app, Not Hotdog, a disruptive app that uses AI and neural networks to identify hotdogs. Despite this impressive feat of technical brilliance, Jian-Yang wants nothing to do with it. Here's his comment on Product Hunt:
"It is very good and I don't want to work on it any more. You can hire someone else."
The real question: How long before Zuck adds hotdog recognition to Instagram? π€

We asked 34 customers what Viktor does for them. Not one said chatbot.

They kept using words like colleague, coworker, team member. One CEO called it the glue holding their e-commerce business together, which is a lot, but also⦠you see why. It lives in Slack and plugs into 3,000+ tools, so instead of jumping between tabs, you just ask for the thing. Pull Stripe against HubSpot, check Sentry alerts, spin up a campaign brief, build a landing page, send a report upstairs. It all happens there.
It has already hit top 5 on Product Hunt with 130 comments, is SOC 2 certified, and your data does not train models.One user said it was the first time AI felt like a real coworker, which is either exciting or slightly concerning depending on your week.
