At a catch-up coffee a few weeks ago, a founder friend asked me, “What AI thing should we build?”

Generative artificial intelligence is 99% of the buzz in Silicon Valley right now. In just the last few weeks, Open AI released GPT-4, its most advanced language model to date; Google announced AI for the Workspace in its suite of apps, including Gmail, Docs, Sheets and Slides; Microsoft announced an AI copilot for Microsoft 365, including Docs, Excel and PowerPoint; and then Google released Bard, its ChatGPT competitor, and Open AI released plug-ins for ChatGPT nearly back to back.
