I’m A $3B Founder. Here Are 7 AI Business Ideas.

myself i've been an engineer for like you know a couple decades now and I no longer write code i only [Music] prompt all right so you founded this company but your story is crazy so you're high school dropout grew up in Argentina have been building things and hacking on things since you know a very young age sold a company kind of early on i don't know if it was big sale or small sale and then you built this product that has just taken off every front end developer I know

loves it it's valued I don't know $3 billion or so you know whatever give or take and you've just done this incredible thing and now and now you have this AI tool that's also like super on trend and is something that is doing really really well it's a really cool uh agent that that builds sites for you that's my version of the of the the summary of your story it's a great summary maybe the only thing I'll add is the the crazy way that I've been able to

go from like a teenager in Argentina to today was has been a lot of open source so I've been involved in creating a lot of technologies that have become foundational in the tech ecosystem and I felt like that and the web has sort of been my ticket to success of course over decades of hard work well explain that so why did you drop out of high school i I I've never been a fan of like the high school dropout moniker because I actually really loved the high school that I went to so it was a high school in Argentina that was a free public

school that had an entry exam you had to study really hard to get in and I worked so hard to get in uh entered in position number 10 out of like thousands of students but I had two competing interests i was becoming popular in this open source ecosystem because I was creating libraries for JavaScript and front-end development you're like becoming popular at in open source but you're only 15 16 years old so when did you start started coding very early like uh you know seriously I would say when I

was 10 years old I was creating websites shipping I started doing work online helping my parents with our uh like home finances was it just a lucky break or what got you started lucky break in some ways but um open source so I was contributing a lot to like online forums uh helping people out and the lucky part was I remember this guy who whose name I guess I'll never know it was like Dark Shadow 123 he's like "Hey you seem to really enjoy helping people out by writing tutorials and guides and things like that there's this website is a

So there was a bit of a lucky break in that I figured out a business model for myself really early on i got my first check when when I was in like 11 years old then started I had a client in the Netherlands when I was like 12 or 13 are you pretending to be a adult or are you openly like it never I wanted really badly for it to never come up and I'm really I guess lucky that at the time like even Skype was not a thing

so it was like actually kind of rare that you have to get on the phone so I really took advantage of that but so when I got into this high school my reputation for doing all of this work and then my reputation in the open source world were both growing simultaneously so as my grades were decaying my sort of online net worth and contribution and notability in the world was growing so I would write articles I

would get to the front page of dick.com i would write open source software that would get a lot of traction i would get written out give give me a sense are you I'm gonna say it in a dumb way like are you a genius or you were just being extremely helpful like was it just like nobody was writing the tutorial on how to host your WordPress site or whatever was it like you were figuring things out really cutting edge stuff where were you yeah when I advise young people on like how to bootstrap their careers I say start by teaching anything so I started with like how to compile there was a project called RPPO to get internet connectivity in Linux it's like it's just like writing
