Get out from under the VC playbook and start asking yourself and the people around you what should exist. What is the world missing? Use AI as your cofounder as prototype with basic tech - html, css, js, sqlite. Gain traction. See the truth about the audience by doing your own customer service. Then when you find something with true traction, talk about scaling it. You will learn far more and do better.

Answering what should exist and what the world is missing requires a vision for what you want the world to become. The question where to go should come after answering where we are, before that one should ask where we came from, what were things like before? Then, how did we get where we are from where we came from.
There are no correct answers. It should probably be more of a subjective journey than we like to imagine.
Ultimately you get to decide what you want people to become. Even if you do it in ignorance.
To quote a wise man. If the revolution doesnt have singing and dancing im not comming.

I was an engineer that build core tech. Saw the effort expand exponentially as they tried to be trendy with new tech. Went back to basics. Built https://www.dreamlist.com and https://santawho.com - never had so much fun as I do now and I can keep going without asking anyone for permission.
just use rust for everything and then you won't even need to rewrite it when it takes off.
