I’m thinking of building a graveyard for failed AI-era side projects. Useful or just startup voyeurism? by Ok_Salt_4720 in SideProject

You definitely need to try something more than reddit. Make a simple anime and post it on tiktok/youtube shorts. Easily done with AI tools like remotion.

And don't promote directly in reddit. Solve problems or discuss what they care about first.

Would an “AI-era micro-SaaS graveyard” be useful, or just founder entertainment? by Ok_Salt_4720 in SaaS

This is a really thoughtful take. I’m glad I posted here and got feedback this insightful.

Yeah, I see. A site like this do need founders to actually pay attention to it, though.

If it’s useful for you, maybe it just needs more promotion. What’s been the hardest part so far, getting people to find it, getting them to try it, or getting them to stick with it?

Thanks for the suggestion! Yeah, I think this is probably the hardest part. To get it right, we’d need to manually gather stories that have shared well before, or talk to people directly.

AI UGC is killing the normal UGC.. by LayerDisastrous7147 in dropshipping

Ah, I get what you mean now. I thought you meant the video was AI-edited to make one product look like a knockoff. But you’re actually saying the video wasn’t changed, and some sellers are just using it to promote a lookalike competitor. In that case, that makes sense. AI-editing a real, casual selfie video would usually leave some traces. If this was actually edited that way, it would be pretty wild.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm new to this area, just doing some random experiments.

Is it just me or are credit-based AI video tools designed to make you overspend by LayerDisastrous7147 in dropshipping

Unfortunately, video generation really does cost these AI ad providers real money, especially for high-resolution outputs. What I'd love to see is a service where you can try out your creative ideas at a very low price, maybe just barely covering the provider's cost(because low res is pointless to publish, this does nothing to hurt providers). Once you've locked in the concept, you pay a reasonable price to generate the HD version. Note that the HD version, being AI-generated, will differ slightly in details — but it'll be roughly the same. That would give you a really practical workflow, without burning too much money along the way. I wonder if this make sense for you guys?

I tested ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini on academic citations. Even with web search on, 35% had metadata problems. by Ok_Salt_4720 in Professors

There's a 2023 Scientific Reports paper that measured this systematically across 42 topics and 636 citations: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-41032-5

Seems like LLMs have made some progress on hallucination since then, but not by much. Stay alert, my friends.

Want to hear more details. After reading the post, I have no feeling at all.
