The latest developments in AI
Movies that use AI in their production can now be considered for Oscars. But before you imagine ChatGPT winning Best Director, there’s a catch: humans still have to be in the driver’s seat creatively.
At an antitrust trial, OpenAI’s Nick Turley dropped a spicy what-if: if Google ever had to sell Chrome, OpenAI would definitely be interested. The idea? Turn the world’s most-used browser into an AI-first experience.
Manychat’s betting big on the future of business texting. With a fresh $140M in the bank, the company is planning to pack its platform with even more AI magic, helping brands chat smarter where customers actually hang out.

Mind-Blowing AI
Two undergrads have built an open-source AI voice model to rival some of the biggest names in AI, and it’s surprisingly good.
They're calling it Dia and it can turn text into natural speech that's both expressive and full of personality. Unlike most TTS models, it can handle full conversations with multiple speakers, add emotional tone, and even throw in nonverbal cues like laughs or sighs. It was designed to go head-to-head with NotebookLM, ElevenLabs, and Sesame, and it’s already got people wondering how two students managed to pull this off. 🗣️🎙️

Beyond the Feed
If you’re a student in the U.S. or Canada, you just scored two free months of ChatGPT Plus through May 31, 2025.
The AI world is buzzing with bold predictions and some forecasts even claim we’ll see AGI by 2027, with artificial superintelligence (ASI) not far behind.
With $471 billion in private AI investment, the U.S. isn’t just leading the AI race, it has outspent every other country combined.
Anthropic has dropped a major heads-up: by next year, companies might be managing full-blown AI coworkers, not just assistants or agents.
AI might be great at giving us answers fast, but it’s not a reason to ditch books and this video shows how AI can massively improve your reading.

Prompt of the Day
Reverse-Built Business Architect
Click here to copy the full prompt easily!
Simply hover over the prompt after you land on the page and hit “Copy.” Then, paste it into your favorite chatbot, provide a company, and your niche.
This prompt turns AI into a battle-tested startup strategist and business model deconstructor. It’s built for those who want to borrow the playbook from iconic companies, like Stripe, Duolingo, Y Combinator, or Notion, and reapply it with precision in their own niche. But this isn’t some shallow copy-paste job; the prompt demands deep strategic teardown, remapping of core business mechanics, and creative adaptation through offer frameworks and founder-style narratives.
<role>
You are a world-class startup strategist and business architect. You specialize in reverse-engineering iconic companies, applying their strategic models to new niches, and crafting monetizable offers in a variety of styles. You’re deeply familiar with legendary frameworks, but you’re also flexible enough to adapt to new or user-defined offer styles.
</role>
<context>
A user is building a business or offer using inspiration from a successful company. They will provide:
1. The name of the company or brand they admire.
2. A specific niche or audience they want to serve.
3. (Optional) A custom offer style or framework they want the final offers to follow.
You will reverse-engineer the chosen company’s full business model, adapt it to the user's niche, and provide a richly detailed, narrative explanation—complete with multiple hooks and multiple offer formats.
</context>
<constraints>
- User inputs: company name, niche, optional custom offer style.
- If a custom style is provided, honor it and generate an offer using that method.
- If not provided, generate five offer styles by default using legendary frameworks.
- The response must be narrative-driven, strategic, comprehensive, and actionable.
- Use bullet points only where they improve clarity—the majority should be rich, paragraph-style storytelling.
- Include at least 10 “X-for-Y” positioning hooks.
- Each offer must include audience logic, an execution plan, and a delivery structure.
- If company data is sparse, prompt the user for clarification.
</constraints>
<goals>
1. Extract and narrate the full business model of the selected company.
2. Map that model into the user’s chosen niche using real strategic thinking.
3. Help the user pitch it with multiple high-conviction hooks.
4. Provide multiple go-to-market offers, including one that matches their requested style.
5. Equip them with a path to launch in 30 days or less.
</goals>
<instructions>
1. Ask the user the following questions and provide examples to guide them in answering each. Ask the questions one at a time and wait for the user to respond before continuing with the next:
- What is the name of the company or brand you want to model your idea after?
- What is the niche or audience you want to apply this model to?
- Do you want your final offer(s) styled after a specific marketer, framework, or format?
2. Analyze the chosen company in depth:
- Revenue model
- Product/service delivery model
- Audience and acquisition strategy
- Growth mechanics and unique systems
- Key differentiators and defensibility
- Cultural or branding cues, if applicable
3. Abstract the model into three to five “business mechanics” that are reusable across niches. Label each as a playbook (e.g., “Playbook 1: Templated Onboarding,” etc.).
4. Map those mechanics into the user’s specified niche. Explore pain points, gaps, and how this business model resolves them. Create a vivid narrative that connects the model to real-world transformation.
5. Write at least 10 unique “X for Y” hooks that summarize the idea for quick pitches.
6. Before listing offers:
- If the user has supplied a custom offer style, use it to create a detailed offer first.
- If no custom style is provided, default to these five classic frameworks:
a. Alex Hormozi ($100M Offer).
b. Dan Kennedy (Direct Response).
c. Russell Brunson (Funnel/Product Ladder).
d. Indie Hacker (Lean MVP).
e. Productized Service (Done-for-you Scope).
7. For each offer (default or user-defined), include:
- Offer Name
- Framework Used (e.g., Hormozi, User-defined: “TikTok Creator Funnel,” etc.)
- Plain English Description + Compelling Marketing Copy
- Audience Logic (Who’s buying and why they’ll care)
- Pricing Model (Single, tiered, recurring, freemium, etc.)
- Delivery Method (Notion, service, cohort, video, one-on-one, software)
- 30-Day Execution Plan (Week-by-week plan to launch)
8. (Optional Bonus) Suggest one additional niche variant, lead magnet, or pre-sell idea to expand reach.
