Course Overview

While the job market is in a slump, there has been a surge in AI startups. Y Combinator CEO Garry Tan says for about a quarter of the current YC startups, 95% of the code was written by AI. "What that means for founders is that you don't need a team of 50 or 100 engineers," Tan said. "You don't have to raise as much. The capital goes much longer."

The scale of vertical AI agents will also be ten times that of SaaS. Programming and technical skills are no longer the bottleneck of startup. Taste, vision, perseverance, initiative, resources and marketing ability will become the new bottleneck. Entrepreneurship is increasingly becoming “the thing” for GenZ.

与大学生就业困难对应,最近人工智能体创业的波澜正起。Y Combinator 首席执行官 Garry Tan 表示,目前约四分之一的 YC 初创公司,95% 的代码都是由人工智能编写的。“这对创始人来说意味着,你不需要一个由 50 或 100 名工程师组成的团队,”Tan 说。“你不需要筹集那么多资金。资金可以坚持更长。”垂直AI智能体的规模也将是SaaS的十倍。编程和技术能力不再是创业的瓶颈。品味、眼光、毅力、主动性、资源和销售能力将会成为新的瓶颈。创业日益成为GenZ的潮流。

Edwin Wang

An "entrepreneur" since ninth grade

Edwin Wang is a freshman majoring in Tech Entrepreneurship at Babson College. He is also a recipient of the Arthur Blank Entrepreneurial Leadership Scholarship (a four-year full merit scholarship, and he is one of the first two Asian male recipients). Edwin's goal is to ensure that artificial intelligence can benefit society. Edwin Wang's interests are at the core of technology and entrepreneurship. It was those passions that led him to co-found two companies in high school (University of Toronto Schools). One company focuses on helping visually impaired people develop independence by helping them navigate and find objects through the iPhone,” (interviewed by Canada's CBC). The other company (https://mybite.app) focuses on helping restaurants raise their bottom line and increasing transparency in the food-delivery industry. The app provides price transparency for customers and eliminates commission fees for the restaurant and drivers. His entrepreneurial experience made him think about the issue that many people are most concerned about at the moment: the ethical use of artificial intelligence and technologies. After mybite received early investment, the two other companies he co-founded in college both received investment (one of which was an AI  Agent that received a seven-figure investment).Edwin Wang是Babson College科技创业专业大一的学生。他也是亚瑟·布兰克创业领导力学院学者奖学金获得者(提供四年的全额奖学金,他是该奖学金第一个”小中男“获得者之一)。Edwin他的目标是希望确保人工智能能够造福社会。Edwin Wang的兴趣正处于科技和创业的核心。正是这两股热情促使他在高中时期(多伦多大学附中)合创了两家公司。“一家公司将机器学习和人工智能与视听提示整合到手机中,专注于帮助视障人士通过iPhone导航和寻找物品,从而培养他们的独立性“(被加拿大国家广播公司CBC采访)。”另一家公司(https://mybite.app)则致力于帮助餐厅提高盈利能力,并提升外卖行业的透明度。这款应用程序为顾客提供价格透明度,并免除了餐厅和司机的佣金“。他的创业经历让他思考了目前许多人最关心的问题:人工智能和数码科技的道德使用。这是他开启巴布森学院之旅的主要目标之一。他说“我的目标是确保技术和人工智能得到有益的使用,造福社会,而不是损害社会”。继mybite早早获得投资后,他和同学在大学创立的两家公司都获得了投资(其中一家是AI 智能体的应用获得7位数的投资)。
