A Couple of Big AI Players and Many Successful Third-Party AI Apps

ChatGPT vs Google Bard

Seth’s Godin blog and many other thousands of blogs have been turned into AI conversational agents that could answer you according to what has been published on these blogs and certainly what might have been the answer of the blog writer. These are the first wave of what I have been trying to express in this crappy article published on Dec 7, 2020, entitled Third-Party Apps are Maturing in which I was trying to tell how third-party apps built for making the web better were maturing because I was seeing that Machine learning will be utilized for the enrichment of already created online content because during those time I was working on an idea about text games embedded in blogs and news outlets and this was highlighting me how machine learning could take any published content and append it with more creative digital assets made by smart algorithms that we now call generatively programmed text. Here is exactly what I said back then:

Artificial intelligence will have something to do with the second vague of third party applications that will modernize more again websites. I think to be in the frontline of this vague with a lot of innovative ideas to ship. Those ideas work around blogs, books, and videos. I am glad to know that we are in the connection area and those who figure out how to connects two parties are those who will win. This is so obvious for someone who believes in God because unity is what we seek and making communication between two happen to make it more easy and probable to happens. Not Christian but it is also obvious that the trinity is a clue here.

since then I have not shipped any of these ideas that were about making blogs, books, and videos richer with machine learning but since the emergence of platforms like openAI and google bard all these ideas become so easy to build on top of the APIs of these tech giants that they freeze me from doing something but the opportunity is wide and, unlike me, you can benefit from it now the wave that I called “Vague” back then is now smoother to surf. Your religious belief doesn't matter in this instance what matter is for you to ideate a bit about an AI third-party app that could interest others and pick one to build right now because the dynamics of this new AI space will be the same as the dynamics of the innovative moments that preceded it. That is there will be some big players but some of them will have open-access APIs that will allow the birth of many successful third-party AI apps. Yours could be among these successful third-party AI apps that will solve with AI the problem of a set of users or help improve the job and operations of a given industry.

Then don't be squeezed like me. Ideate and pick an idea and start building faster than you can because, among these third-party AI apps, there will be some that will really challenge the big first players As I have stated in this past article that is sometimes the first mover effort is exploited by later entrants that easily build on top of their works better alternatives that people and organizations might favor.

For my part, I have built and chipped anything that could at least serve a few people or organizations but if writing is building then almost every day I am building something that serves a dozen of smart people but I know that like you I can do better and faster than this and I am eager to do just do it.

As it emphasizes execution then I think that the end of this article is in accord with this article entitled Dicernement in Creativity published by Seth Godin on July 10, 2023, in which he said

The hard part isn’t good ideas. It never has been.

what’s like the saying of Guy Kawasaki that is

saying that I have partly once rejected on one of my past tweets that I can't find because Twitter isn’t there for archiving a 3-year-old tweet of a crazy and unmeaningful man in Africa who is followed by only a little set of smart real people who seek to be aware of opinions that echo far from them. Every year my profile is shrunk and I can’t find a way to get again to tweets I made in the past for using them as support of one of my arguments and worse there is not a feature that let users search through their own past tweets. that’s what happen with the tweet about Guy Kawasaki that I can’t find and post there but hopefully, I had made a tweet about this inconvenient design of Twitter a few months ago and we could even compute the time shrinkage that is a month then each month I lose a month worth of tweets but that’s an idea, not an exact calculation

Papa Makhtar Diop on Twitter: "The last time I scrolled through my whole @Twitter profile the dead-end date was March 2022 now it's April 10, 2022. can't find some clues related to this #AI native #ecommerce but anyway hope it will be as successful and customer-centric as @Zappos https://t.co/4vVVn4xAiP / Twitter"

The last time I scrolled through my whole @Twitter profile the dead-end date was March 2022 now it's April 10, 2022. can't find some clues related to this #AI native #ecommerce but anyway hope it will be as successful and customer-centric as @Zappos https://t.co/4vVVn4xAiP

then If I come back to Seth and Guy saying that could be summarized as ideas aren't important what is certainly true, ideas aren’t important what important is the process of getting them, improving them, and testing them with cognitive facts and theories that are proved right and the process of constantly doing this ideation process that turns someone into a real problem solver or at least a solution path starter. Why I don't agree with such sayings even if what they emphasize that is the importance of execution is true is that they have the side effect of influencing people to not always ideate, always try to find new ideas which I think is an important part of learning to be creative. But how can I support this idea when I have never shipped an amount of work as important as the works of Seth Godin and Guy Kawasaki is the problem certainly a problem of execution problem but I think that I have made a small progress toward getting this idea to spread by talking about it. But convinced or not by this idea about the importance of ideas let me remind you that you could make an important contribution if start finding ideas about third-party AI apps and surely an even more important contribution if you execute one of these ideas. The Execution of ideas is as important as the ideas themselves is what I think is the key video to recall.

I hope soon I will have an interesting conversation with the AI of @alex , @nmasc_ @bayareawriter , @larrykim, and any other who writes and shares. pic.twitter.com/dlmRXhzW9t / Twitter"

this tweet may give you a method for specific third-party AI apps that fill what’s left unfilled by geant AI platforms

PS: Rip Tony Hsieh, long life and peace to Seth Godin, Guy Kawasaki, and Vala Afshar. Thank you all of you for leading others with your works, thoughts, and opinions that ignite conversations that may make the world a better place for all of us. looking for a featured image I landed on this illustration picturing a battle between Seth Godin and Guy Kawasaki published on brandongaille.com, I thought it was interesting to republish it here:
