<h2>The Neglected Self</h2>
<p>Growing up, I was always taught to take care of others. So I got used to caring about other people&#39;s feelings and needs while ignoring my own. It felt natural. Gradually, I think my subconscious came to believe that I simply didn&#39;t matter.</p>
<p>But as an individual, you always have needs of your own. So two forces were battling inside my head: one saying I matter, the other saying I don&#39;t. When the inner awareness grew stronger but my logic still refused to acknowledge my importance, the conflict became intense.</p>
<h2>Realizing the Problem</h2>
<p>I realized the root issue was that I didn&#39;t love myself and didn&#39;t think I was important. Despite all the theories about the necessity of self-love, and despite my family expressing their love for me, I still didn&#39;t get it.</p>
<p>For example, I once accidentally sliced off a small piece of skin from my finger. It bled a lot. My first reaction wasn&#39;t pain or sadness—I actually felt a tiny bit of relief, because the bandages I had prepared earlier could finally be put to use.</p>
<p>In that moment, I knew something was off. I was being far too harsh on myself. I had turned myself into a tool—a tool for completing study, work, and other goals.</p>
<h2>The Core Argument: Loving Yourself Is the Highest Form of Affirming Subjectivity</h2>
<p>After that, I spent a long time studying and thinking, until I finally arrived at a self-consistent logic that convinced me <strong>loving yourself is both great and necessary</strong>.</p>
<h3>The Premise</h3>
<p>A basic premise: I believe I exist as a <strong>subject</strong> in this world. Other living things, the sky, the earth—they are all objects. A simple way to see it: if I die, I can no longer perceive this world; everything else ceases to exist for me. In this sense, I am the subject, and everything else is an object. This is the foundation of my logical framework.</p>
<h3>Contradiction 1: Surrendering the Right to Define Yourself</h3>
<p>If we accept this premise, we can examine the belief that &quot;I don&#39;t matter.&quot; This manifests as always prioritizing others&#39; needs, or letting others&#39; evaluations define who you are.</p>
<p>Take &quot;letting others define you&quot; as an example. This process has two stages:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Stage 1</strong>: I hand over the right to define me to someone else. Here, my subjectivity is still intact, because I have the right to decide who gets to define me.</li>
<li><strong>Stage 2</strong>: I let others&#39; evaluations actually define me. Now the power belongs to them. They can define who I am however they wish, and I have no control. I have lost my subjectivity—which contradicts the premise that I am a subject.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>This is the first contradiction.</strong></p>
<h3>Contradiction 2: The Hypocrisy of Self-Hatred</h3>
<p>Suppose others defining me or despising me is reasonable, and suppose I also despise myself. Isn&#39;t that still an expression of subjectivity? I&#39;m simply choosing to hate myself rather than love myself, which logically still reflects my agency, since I have the right to choose.</p>
<p>But this is precisely where the contradiction appears. If I truly despised myself and thought I didn&#39;t matter, I wouldn&#39;t still want to eat delicious food every day or want to sleep, because despising yourself to the extreme means choosing death—yet I&#39;m still alive.</p>
<p>Living and enjoying good food, fulfilling basic needs, while simultaneously believing I don&#39;t matter—isn&#39;t that a form of hypocrisy? So this doesn&#39;t hold up logically either.</p>
<p><strong>This is the second contradiction.</strong></p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Working backward from these two contradictions, I convinced myself: <strong>only by seeing yourself and loving yourself can you truly affirm your own subjectivity.</strong></p>
<p>I hope my thoughts inspire you, and I hope we can all learn to love ourselves well.</p>


A Logical Proof for Why You Should Love Yourself

<h2>Looking Back from the End</h2>
<p>From the day we are born, we are moving toward the end. If we look back from that endpoint, what does happiness really mean to us?</p>
<p>For a long time I easily envied people with money, status, or degrees. I would think how nice it would be to be that successful. Money, fame, status—I too had daydreams of waking up one day already at the finish line, without having to strive.</p>
<h2>The Pull of the External Fades</h2>
<p>At some point, though, those things began to matter less. Maybe when I realized that we bring nothing in and take nothing with us, and that these external things are gained and then lost again.</p>
<h2>Rethinking Happiness</h2>
<p>So I started to ask again: what is happiness?</p>
<p>To me, the warmest and happiest scenes are simple: cooking, eating, and walking together as a family, and then gathering around the table after a walk to chat and have snacks.</p>
<p>I also notice that when I push myself and do something I couldn’t do before, I feel excited and happy. Or when I see a dog running on the grass in the sun, or a child’s genuine smile in a supermarket when they get a cake, or the sudden scent of flowers on a spring walk. Those moments make me happy, and they don’t depend on money, status, or identity.</p>
<h2>Material Things and Happiness</h2>
<p>Of course, that doesn’t mean material conditions don’t matter. I’d be happy to eat at a Michelin restaurant or stay at a resort for a month. I’d be upset if I wasted money unnecessarily. I only want to remind us that external stuff isn’t the only source of happiness. Often, happiness is close by, even free.</p>


What Is Happiness? Learning to Look Back from the End of Life

<h2>Have You Ever Noticed</h2>
<p>We often give ourselves instructions, but we always fail to follow through.</p>
<p>For example, I tell myself today: &quot;I must go to bed before 11 PM.&quot; But what happens? Before I know it, I&#39;m scrolling on my phone until 1 AM.</p>
<p>Why? Let&#39;s think about it from a different angle.</p>
<h2>What AI Teaches Us</h2>
<p>When we use AI, we all understand one thing clearly: if you don&#39;t give it enough context, enough background information, and just throw out a vague instruction, AI will almost never give you a satisfactory result.</p>
<p>So we tell it: what&#39;s the background, what&#39;s the goal, and even what are the constraints.</p>
<p>You can understand this process as three steps: <strong>Past (context, background knowledge) - Present (instruction) - Future (output result)</strong></p>
<h2>So Here&#39;s the Question</h2>
<p>Since AI is trained based on human thinking patterns, doesn&#39;t this logic also apply to ourselves?</p>
<p>I think, yes.</p>
<p>Usually, after we have a goal, it&#39;s equivalent to giving our future selves an instruction in the 【Present】, and then hoping that 【Future】 us can produce the corresponding target result.</p>
<p>Have you noticed that we&#39;re missing the 【Past】 in that three-step process, that 【context】?</p>
<p><strong>If we don&#39;t know where we came from, how can we know where to go?</strong> Even though I said this myself, I think it&#39;s quite insightful, hehe.</p>
<h2>A Simple Example</h2>
<p>Let&#39;s go back to that example of going to bed at 11 PM. If we just tell ourselves &quot;go to bed early&quot; without looking back at our 【Past】, without finding the root cause, it&#39;s hard to solve the problem fundamentally.</p>
<p>For example, if we look back, we might discover that we&#39;re too tired during the day and can only relieve stress by scrolling on our phones at night. If that&#39;s the case, what we need to adjust isn&#39;t our &quot;willpower&quot; at night, but whether we can give ourselves a few short breaks during the day.</p>
<h2>Zooming Out</h2>
<p>That was a simple example, but if we zoom out a bit, our personality, thinking patterns, and emotional responses are essentially shaped bit by bit by our past.</p>
<p>So if we want to fundamentally change ourselves, I suggest digging deep into our past, writing our own chronicle, and recording the significant events for us, whether they&#39;re growth or setbacks, happiness or sadness.</p>
<h2>Understanding Our Own Context</h2>
<p>Only when we understand our own context well enough, understand our past, know what has trapped us and what has helped us grow, can we more precisely target the problem, give accurate instructions, and achieve the goals we want in the future.</p>
<p>The process of exploration is long and difficult, but it&#39;s not impossible. I&#39;m still learning about my own context, so let&#39;s work on it together!</p>


We Need Context Too, Just Like AI

<h2>Creative Destruction: More Than Just an Economic Term</h2>
<p>Does the word &quot;destruction&quot; sound scary at first? But don&#39;t forget the three words that come before it, <strong>&quot;creative&quot;</strong>.</p>
<p>Creative destruction is actually a term in economics, and it&#39;s a key concept explored by Philippe, winner of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Economics. Simply put: <strong>When new technologies and new models emerge, they break the existing structure, allowing old winners to gradually exit while new winners emerge, and simultaneously creating new industries and new jobs.</strong></p>
<p>On the surface, it looks like destruction, but in essence, it&#39;s driving the development of the entire society.</p>
<h2>The Competition Between Two &quot;Me&quot;s</h2>
<p>After I learned about this concept, I suddenly realized one day, <strong>it can actually be applied to every individual.</strong></p>
<p>If you think carefully about your future self, you&#39;ll discover that there are actually two &quot;me&quot;s:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>The new me</strong>: Wants to grow, wants to change the current state</li>
<li><strong>The old me</strong>: More comfortable staying in familiar places, maintaining the original lifestyle</li>
</ul>
<p>These two selves are actually <strong>competing every day</strong>. The new me wants to break the old structure, while the old me just wants to maintain the status quo.</p>
<h2>A Painful But Worthwhile Process</h2>
<p>This competitive process is painful, even repetitive and cyclical.</p>
<p>For example, I&#39;ve set goals for myself, made many resolutions, and failed many times. Each failure feels like the old me has won another round.</p>
<p>But I also believe that <strong>as long as our determination to change is strong enough, and our vision for the future is clear enough, everyone has the ability to grow and change.</strong></p>
<h2>No Destruction, No Creation</h2>
<p>Finally, I want to say: <strong>No destruction, no creation.</strong></p>
<p>We have the ability to actively create each &quot;destruction,&quot; breaking old patterns, habits, and mindsets, and thus become better.</p>
<p>This kind of &quot;destruction&quot; is not annihilation, but for rebirth. Just as creative destruction in economics drives social progress, personal creative destruction also drives us to become better versions of ourselves.</p>
<p>Are you ready to practice &quot;creative destruction&quot; on yourself?</p>


Want to Change? You Need to Practice 'Creative Destruction' on Yourself

<h2>It&#39;s Not Suitable for Ordinary People to Start a Business Right Now</h2>
<p>Hello everyone, today I want to talk about whether the AI era is suitable for ordinary people to start a business.</p>
<p>My answer is <strong>no, it&#39;s not suitable</strong>. Wait, don&#39;t close the page yet. I know you might think I&#39;m being unreasonable. You might be thinking, &quot;AI technology is so advanced now, especially Google AI Studio allows ordinary people to create a complete product with just one sentence. What are you talking about?&quot;</p>
<p>I know you might have these doubts, so let me introduce who I am and why I think this way.</p>
<h2>Who Am I</h2>
<p>I&#39;m a master&#39;s student in the MSTI (Master of Science in Technology Innovation) program at the University of Washington, a collaborative program founded by UW, Tsinghua University, and Microsoft. Living in Seattle, a city where tech giants gather and many technology companies were born, we&#39;re in an environment where AI technology is rapidly developing. Although we&#39;re not at the forefront of industry discourse like Silicon Valley, we&#39;ve personally experienced how AI technology is reshaping industry structures and affecting competitive barriers.</p>
<h2>Why I Think It&#39;s Not Suitable for Starting a Business</h2>
<p>Let me share why I think the AI era is not suitable for ordinary people to start a business right now.</p>
<p>Before discussing the issue, I must admit that AI technology is indeed developing very fast. But precisely because of this:</p>
<p><strong>First, industry technical barriers are being rapidly lowered.</strong> Today, ordinary people can easily use Claude Code or Google AI Studio to create a small product, a complete demo. This means that just building something is no longer a competitive advantage.</p>
<p><strong>Second, big tech companies are entering the market comprehensively.</strong> They have powerful, mature ecosystems and data volumes far exceeding small teams. Small teams&#39; startup products can easily be replaced or covered. For example, in China, Alibaba has both a powerful Qwen model and massive user data from Taobao and Alipay, making it easy to replace products created by small startup teams. The same is true in the United States. Google, which previously focused on office tools, is now also exploring shopping-related areas.</p>
<p><strong>Third, from a business perspective, it&#39;s harder to achieve sustainable profitability than to build a good product.</strong> Users&#39; switching costs are too high. Why would they abandon platforms they&#39;re already used to and try a new product? And why would they want to pay for this new product? Before crossing this gap, it&#39;s difficult for products to truly succeed.</p>
<h2>What to Do in the Future</h2>
<p>So what&#39;s a more rational choice in such an environment? I think it&#39;s to <strong>build up strength</strong>. Just like the first line of the Qian hexagram in the I Ching says, &quot;Hidden dragon, do not act&quot;—we&#39;re not inactive now, but preparing for future takeoff.</p>
<ol>
<li><p><strong>Develop logical thinking skills</strong>, like Musk&#39;s first principles thinking—this is like building the framework of a house;</p>
</li>
<li><p><strong>Learn as much knowledge as possible from various fields</strong>, whether someone likes football or entertainment news, I think these are all fine. What&#39;s important is that we continuously absorb knowledge like a sponge—this is like the materials and bricks needed to build a house;</p>
</li>
<li><p><strong>Cultivate a Growth Mindset</strong>, treating the current uncertain environment as a great opportunity to learn, observe, and explore, preparing for future takeoff.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Finally, I want to say that entrepreneurship requires both impulse and calmness. Regardless, I hope everyone can succeed on their path to their dreams. I hope today&#39;s sharing is helpful to everyone.</p>

AI Era: Is It Still Suitable for Ordinary People to Start a Business?

<h2>被忽略的自己</h2>
<p>从小到大，我一直被教育要照顾别人，所以我已经习惯了关心其他人的感受和需求，并且忽略自己。这对我来说是理所应当的。慢慢地，我觉得在潜意识中，我也认为我是不重要的。</p>
<p>但作为一个个体，人始终会有自己的需求，所以当我的大脑中存在着两股力量: 一股认为我重要，一股认为我不重要。而当内心的意识变得强烈，但逻辑还是不认为我重要的时候，这个冲突会变得激烈。</p>
<h2>意识到问题</h2>
<p>我意识到底层的问题是我不爱自己以及不认为我重要。尽管有那么多的理论会谈及爱自己的必要性，以及亲人也在表达着对我的爱意时，我仍然不理解。</p>
<p>比如说，我的手指不小心被削掉了一小块肉，留了很多血，我当下的第一反应不是难过，甚至有点小小的庆幸，因为我之前准备的绷带可以用上了。</p>
<p>那一刻，我意识到了我的不对劲。我对自己太苛刻了，我把自己当成了工具，当成了可以完成学习、工作等目标的工具。</p>
<h2>核心论证：爱自己是承认主体性的最高形式</h2>
<p>在那之后，我花了很长的时间去学习和思考，终于找到了一个可以自圆其说的逻辑，足以说服自己<strong>爱自己是多么的伟大和必要</strong>。</p>
<h3>前提</h3>
<p>一个基本的前提是，我相信我是作为<strong>主体</strong>生活在这个世界上的，其他的生物、天空、土地等都是客体。一个简单的例子就是我死了，就看不见这个世界，其他的物体对我来说都不存在。在这个意义上，我是主体，其他物体都是客体。这是我逻辑体系的基础。</p>
<h3>第一个矛盾：交出定义自己的权利</h3>
<p>如果同意这个前提，我们就可以来思考&quot;我不重要&quot;的问题。具体表现是常以别人的需求为先，或是用别人的评价来定义自己。</p>
<p>以&quot;用别人的评价来定义自己&quot;为例，这个过程可以分为两个阶段：</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>第一阶段</strong>：我把&quot;定义我&quot;的权利交给别人。在这里，主体性还是属于我的，因为我有权利决定谁可以定义我。</li>
<li><strong>第二阶段</strong>：用别人的评价来定义我自己。在这里我就把权利交给别人了，别人可以随意定义我是谁，而我是不能够控制的。我就已经丧失了我的主体性，与&quot;我是主体&quot;的前提相冲突。</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>这是第一个矛盾点。</strong></p>
<h3>第二个矛盾：憎恶自己的虚伪</h3>
<p>假设别人定义我或者憎恶我是合理的，甚至我也憎恶自己的话，这不也是一种体现主体性的方式吗？只不过我不是选择爱自己，而是恨自己，这在逻辑上还是体现了我的主体性，因为我是具有选择的权利的。</p>
<p>但这恰恰是矛盾出现的地方。如果我真的憎恶自己，觉得自己不重要的话，我就不会每天还想吃好吃的，想要睡觉了，因为憎恶自己到极点的话，就是选择死亡，但我现在还活着。</p>
<p>一边为了活着而享受着美味的食物、满足着基本的生理需求，一边却觉得自己不重要—，这不就是一种虚伪吗？所以在逻辑上也不成立。</p>
<p><strong>这是第二个矛盾点。</strong></p>
<h2>结论</h2>
<p>从这两个矛盾点反过来，我说服了自己：<strong>只有看见自己、爱自己，才是真正认可了自己的主体性。</strong></p>
<p>希望我的想法对你有启发，也希望我们大家都能够好好爱自己。</p>


从逻辑上证明人为什么要爱自己

<h2>站在终点往回望</h2>
<p>从生下来开始，我们每天都在奔向死亡。如果站在终点上往回望的话，幸福对我们来说到底意味着什么？</p>
<p>从小到大，我很容易羡慕有钱、有地位、学历高的人，我会想着，要是我也那么厉害，该有多好呀。金钱、名誉、地位，我也想做白日梦，希望有一天醒来，发现自己什么都不用努力，一出生就站在罗马的终点。</p>
<h2>外在的吸引力降低</h2>
<p>但不知道从什么时候开始，这些东西对我的吸引力慢慢降低了。可能是当我意识到生不带来，死不带走，这些外在的物质终会在拥有后又再次失去吧。</p>
<h2>重新思考幸福</h2>
<p>于是我开始重新思考，幸福究竟是什么？</p>
<p>对我来说，我觉得最温暖、最开心的场景就是一家人一起做饭、吃饭、散步，还有在散步后，大家聚在餐桌周围，一起聊天、吃零食的时光。</p>
<p>我也发现，当我挑战了自己，完成了一件以前做不到的事情，我会感到兴奋、感到幸福。又或者是看到阳光下，小狗在草地上奔跑；在超市里，小孩买到蛋糕时的真挚笑容；亦或是，春天走在路上忽然闻到的不期而遇的花香。这些瞬间都会让我感到快乐。而它们并不依赖金钱、地位或身份。</p>
<h2>物质与幸福</h2>
<p>当然，这并不代表物质条件不重要。如果有机会去米其林餐厅吃饭，或者在某个度假村住上一个月，我也会觉得很开心。如果我花费了不必要的冤枉钱，我也会很难过。但我只是想提醒大家，外在物质不是唯一可以带给我们幸福的条件。很多时候，幸福离我们很近，甚至是免费的。</p>


幸福是什么？学会站在人生终点上回望

<h2>你有没有发现一件事</h2>
<p>我们经常给自己下指令，却总是做不到。</p>
<p>比如我今天对自己说：「11 点前一定要睡觉。」但结果呢？一眨眼就刷手机刷到了凌晨一点。</p>
<p>为什么？我们先换一个角度想。</p>
<h2>AI 给我们的启示</h2>
<p>当我们使用 AI 的时候，其实都很清楚一件事：如果你不给它足够的 context，足够的背景信息，只丢一句模糊的指令，AI 几乎不可能给你一个满意的结果。</p>
<p>所以我们会告诉它：背景是什么、目标是什么、甚至限制条件是什么。</p>
<p>你可以把这个过程理解为三步：<strong>过去（context 背景知识）- 现在（指令）- 未来（产出的结果）</strong></p>
<h2>那问题来了</h2>
<p>既然 AI 是按照人类思考方式被训练的，那这套逻辑，是不是也同样适用于我们自己？</p>
<p>我想，是的。</p>
<p>我们通常有一个目标后，也就是等同于在【现在】给未来的自己下指令，然后希望【未来】的我们能够产出相应的目标结果。</p>
<p>大家有没有发现，我们缺少了刚才那个三步骤过程中的【过去】，那个【context】。</p>
<p><strong>如果不知道我们从哪来，怎么能知道往哪去呢？</strong> 这句话虽然是我自己说的，我都觉得精辟，嘿嘿。</p>
<h2>一个简单的例子</h2>
<p>回到刚才那个 11 点睡觉的例子。如果我们只是告诉自己「要早睡」，而不回溯我们的【过去】，寻找过去的原因，很难从根本上解决问题。</p>
<p>例如如果回溯的话，我们可能会发现是白天太累了，只能靠晚上刷手机来缓解压力。如果是这样，那我们需要调整的不是自己在晚上的&quot;意志力&quot;，而是白天能不能给自己增加几次短暂的休息。</p>
<h2>把视角拉大一点</h2>
<p>刚才是一个简单的例子，但如果我们把视角拉大一点，我们的性格、思维方式、情绪反应，本质上也都是被过去一点一点塑造出来的。</p>
<p>所以如果想要从根本上改变自己，那么我建议好好挖掘自己的过去，写一部我们自己的编年史，挖掘记录对我们来说重大的事件，无论是成长还是挫折，开心还是难过。</p>
<h2>了解自己的 context</h2>
<p>当我们足够了解自己的 context，了解自己的过去，知道是什么困住了我们，又是什么帮助我们成长，我们才能更精准地对症下药，给出准确的指令，在未来达成我们想要的目标。</p>
<p>探索的过程是漫长又艰难的，但不是不能做到的。我也还在了解我自己的 context，让我们一起努力吧！</p>


人和AI一样，都需要context

<h2>创造性破坏：不只是经济学术语</h2>
<p>&quot;破坏&quot;这个词一开始听起来是不是很吓人？但是别忘了前面还有三个字，<strong>&quot;创造性&quot;</strong>。</p>
<p>创造性破坏这个概念其实是经济学中的术语，也是2025年诺贝尔经济学奖的获得者菲利普重点探讨的内容。简单来说就是：<strong>新技术、新模式出现，会打破原来的格局，让旧的赢家慢慢退场，新的赢家上场，同时也会创造新的行业、新的岗位。</strong></p>
<p>表面上看起来是破坏，但实质上，是在推动整个社会的发展。</p>
<h2>两个&quot;我&quot;的竞争</h2>
<p>我最近学习了这个概念后，有一天突然发现，<strong>它其实还可以用在每一个人的身上。</strong></p>
<p>如果你认真想一想未来的自己，你会发现，其实有两个&quot;我&quot;：</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>新的我</strong>：想成长、想改变现在的状态</li>
<li><strong>旧的我</strong>：更习惯待在熟悉的地方，维持原来的生活方式</li>
</ul>
<p>这两个我，其实<strong>每天都在竞争</strong>。新的我，想要打破旧的格局；旧的我，只想维持现状。</p>
<h2>痛苦但值得的过程</h2>
<p>这个竞争过程，是很痛苦的，甚至是反复的、循环的。</p>
<p>比如说我自己，我给自己设定好目标后，下过很多决心，也失败过很多次。每一次失败，都像是旧的我又赢了一局。</p>
<p>但是呢，我也相信，<strong>只要我们想要改变的决心够强烈，对于未来愿景的向往足够清晰，每个人都有成长和改变的能力。</strong></p>
<h2>不破不立</h2>
<p>最后我想说的是：<strong>不破不立。</strong></p>
<p>我们有能力自己主动创造每一次&quot;破坏&quot;，打破旧有的模式、习惯和思维定式，从而变得更好。</p>
<p>这种&quot;破坏&quot;不是毁灭，而是为了新生。就像经济学中的创造性破坏推动社会进步一样，个人的创造性破坏，也在推动我们成为更好的自己。</p>
<p>你准备好，对自己进行&quot;创造性破坏&quot;了吗？</p>


想要改变，就要对自己进行"创造性破坏"

<h2>现在不适合普通人创业</h2>
<p>Hello 大家好，今天我想来谈一谈，AI 时代究竟适合普通人创业吗？</p>
<p>那我的答案是<strong>不适合</strong>。等等，先别急着关掉页面，我知道看到这里，你肯定会觉得我说的不靠谱了。你可能会想，AI 技术那么发达了，特别是 Google AI Studio 都可以让普通人用一句话制作出一个完整的产品了，你到底在说什么呢？</p>
<p>我知道你肯定会有这样的疑惑，那就让我来介绍一下我是谁，以及我这样认为的原因。</p>
<h2>我是谁</h2>
<p>我是华盛顿大学技术创新学位 MSTI program 的硕士，这是一个由华大、清华和微软共同创办的合作项目。生活在西雅图这样一个大厂云集以及诸多科技巨头诞生的城市，我们身处在 AI 技术快速发展的环境当中。虽然不如硅谷一般站在行业舆论的最前沿，但是我们也切身的感受到了 AI 技术是如何重塑行业结构，并且影响竞争门槛的。</p>
<h2>为什么认为不适合创业？</h2>
<p>那接下来就让我分享一下，我之所以会认为现在 AI 时代不适合普通人创业的原因吧。</p>
<p>在谈论问题前，我必须承认一点，AI 技术发展确实非常快。但也正因如此：</p>
<p><strong>第一，行业技术门槛正在迅速被拉低。</strong> 在今天普通人可以利用 Claude Code 或者是 Google AI Studio 很轻松地去做成一个小的产品，一个完整的 Demo。这意味着仅仅是做出来已经不具有竞争优势了。</p>
<p><strong>第二，大厂正在全面入局。</strong> 他们有着强大成熟的生态系统，以及远超小团队的数据量。小团队的创业产品很轻松就会被覆盖、替换掉。例如在国内，阿里一方面有着强大的千问模型，一方面他们还拥有广量的用户、淘宝以及支付宝的数据，很容易就会替换掉小型的创业团队生产出来的产品。那在美国也是同样如此。谷歌它在过去可能往往集中于办公用品的区域，那现在它也在尝试做一些关于 shopping 相关的探索。</p>
<p><strong>第三，从商业角度来谈，比做好一个产品更难的是如何获得持续的盈利。</strong> 用户的 switching cost（切换成本）太高了。他们为什么要放弃原有已经习惯的平台来尝试一个新的产品？又为什么想要为这个新的产品付费呢？在跨越这一个鸿沟之前，产品很难真正的做好。</p>
<h2>未来怎么做</h2>
<p>那么在这样的环境中，更加理性的选择是什么呢？我认为是<strong>养精蓄锐</strong>。就像易经乾卦的第一爻&quot;潜龙勿用&quot;一样，我们现在不是不行动，而只是为了未来的起飞做准备。</p>
<ol>
<li><p><strong>培养逻辑思维能力</strong>，就像马斯克提到的第一性原理一样，这就像搭房子的骨架；</p>
</li>
<li><p><strong>尽可能多的学习各种领域的知识</strong>，无论是有些人他喜欢足球运动也好，还是有些人喜欢娱乐新闻也好，我觉得这些都无关紧要。重要的是我们要像海绵一样不断地汲取知识，这就是搭房子需要的材料、砖块一样；</p>
</li>
<li><p><strong>培养 Growth Mindset</strong>，把当下充满了不确定性的环境当成一个很好的去学习、观察、探索的机会，为未来的起飞做好准备。</p>
</li>
</ol>
<h2>结语</h2>
<p>最后我想说的是，创业是需要既冲动又冷静的。无论如何，都希望大家能够在自己梦想的道路上成功。希望今天的分享对大家有帮助。</p>
<p><em>（以上内容是我的个人观点，不代表任何学校、组织和机构）</em></p>
<p>那我们就下期再见吧，拜拜！</p>
