I see a lot of companies with fresh faced 25 year olds that are running all kinds of AI stuff. Everything from NPT, Vision, organization tools.

What I don't get is how they're doing this with such small teams. How are these young companies building out AI services?

For the most part, they’ve just put a thin wrapper on ChatGTP or some other big AI API.

This -- I think this is probably starting to die out already, but there was a massive wave of startups whose "product" basically amounts to a prompt template that they fill in with your input and pass along to ChatGPT. Any early stage startup getting plugged on HN or whatever, you can assume there's at least a 60% chance it's pure smoke and mirrors, and that percentage only climbs the more buzzwords it includes.
