Welcome to episode five of Unraveling AI Entrepreneurs. These are basically FAQs from engineers and product managers as you go on your AI journey from zero to one. Today’s question is, what resources do you need to get started on an AI idea? Now, it’s a common misconception that as you think about your AI idea, you really need to get a massive team to build out the product. So you have to make presentations, talk to stakeholders, and get the required support right off the bat. That is a misconception.

What is important is you frame the problem. Um, the earlier episodes where I talked about how to make sure that you have the right success criteria defined. You understand the impact. If this was sold, how impactful it would be for the business. [00:01:00] Those are required, uh, as pre-conditions before you get started. But once you have that, don’t get stuck with getting into, how do I get a team, a massive team together? Instead, your initial goal should really be the cheapest way to verify the feasibility of the problem, and that is key.
