🏄The end of the daily newsletter
Riding the Wave won't be hitting your inbox on Monday.
Hey Surfers🏄!
The newsletter will take a longer break.
Wait what? You’re ending it? Yes and no.
I started this newsletter back in August with a selfish reason. I made myself a promise to read and learn about AI every single day. And you, Surfers🏄, gave me motivation to keep good on that promise.
My secret hope was that by diving deep enough into this field, I would find new, exciting opportunities to chase. This is exactly what happened. I started writing an app with the help of ChatGPT in November and it turned into a product by now.
Mind you, I don’t know how to code, but it turns out if you argue with ChatGPT long enough and ask the relevant questions, you can actually piece together functional code. I might not understand half of it, but hey, it does the job.
And this changed everything for me for two reasons:
I now have a product that demands my full attention—to beat the drums about it (marketing) and to add new features for an enticing subscription offer.
Now that I know I can create code I started seeing low hanging fruits and opportunities for AI boosted apps everywhere. I have so many ideas to chase!
With new tasks piling up writing this newsletter has started to feel more and more like a chore and something that takes precious time away from my endeavors.
Me, looking at all those low-hanging fruits.
So, in its daily form, I have to retire Riding the Wave 🌊🏄 for now and hang up my surfboard.
BUT: It’s been a blast writing it! And I’m not disappearing. I plan to drop in from time to time and write about my adventures with my products. Whether it’s cool stuff I learn, new ways I’m using AI to build or market my products, or just those moments when I find some new AI so mind-blowing that I just have to tell someone about it.
If you're into that, stick around and stay subscribed. Would love to keep you in the loop!
And since I’ve got you riding the AI wave, you might be craving your daily fix of AI insights. Well, I’ve got just the thing – check out the Neuron at https://www.theneurondaily.com/. They nail it almost as well as this newsletter did.
Aloha Surfers🏄, talk to you soon,
Marci
P.S. And hey, if you're wondering about the project I've been dedicating all this time to, it is a Discord summarizer app.
What it does is pretty straightforward but super handy: it reads through Discord servers, picking out the key points from conversations and serves them up in a short, digestible form every 24 hours. This way, you won't have to spend hours reading the chat to know what’s going on.
I have focused it on a niche within the crypto market, Ordinals. If that rings a bell and you’re interested, join our Discord server here. It’s free!
