Actually, this argument works the other way too: right now is exactly the best entrepreneurial opportunity for ordinary people. Here's why: 1. AI has completely demolished the technical barriers of any product. If you want to make something, you can do it with AI. You can easily clone any product you want, something that was very difficult in the past. 2. With the popularity of vibe coding, the technical threshold has been greatly lowered. You no longer have to spend a lot of time on product development and research. Instead, you can focus more on building a network of users, listening to their needs and pain points, and then handing them over to AI to implement. Where there are people, there is demand; where there is demand, there is willingness to pay. Not everyone is willing to make a product themselves to solve their own needs. 3. You don't need investors at all. You only need to capture a small part of the market, or even a trivial business, to survive and even thrive. Meanwhile, venture-backed startups and big companies need huge markets to meet their business needs, so there's no need to worry about them coming down to compete for your business because the ROI for them to do so is very low. For these reasons, ordinary people should dare to think and act in this era. You have nothing to lose.
