[0:00] It's terrifying launching something.

[0:02] I've been doing it for 25 years,

[0:03] launched hundreds of different products,

[0:05] and like every single time it's just

[0:06] like, "God, like what if zero people

[0:08] care?" I'm like textbook ADHD. Now I can

[0:11] just sort of like feed the beast a

[0:13] little bit more. I use Opus for the bulk

[0:15] of everything. I'll then do a review

[0:17] pass using GPT 3.5, and it invariably

[0:20] finds three to five bugs that Opus

[0:22] overlooked. And then I'll run But for

[0:24] Real, and that But for Real skill is

[0:27] basically like kind of bullies the AI,

[0:29] the LLM into like, "You almost certainly

[0:32] screwed some stuff up."

[0:33] >> How long do you work on it before you

[0:34] put it out there?

[0:35] >> There's been stuff where I've launched

[0:47] >> Hey everyone, I'm really excited today

[0:48] to chat with Josh who sold his last

[0:50] startup Baremetrics for 4 million, and

[0:52] is now building at least five AI

[0:54] products in parallel. Josh is going to

[0:56] show us exactly how he builds with AI as

[0:59] a solo founder. So, welcome, sir.

[1:00] >> Hey, thanks for having me, Peter.

[1:02] >> All right, Josh. So, maybe to start, can

[1:03] you give us a super quick tour of some

[1:05] of the products that you're working on

[1:07] right now?

[1:07] >> So, today,

[1:09] I actually launched this. It's called

[1:11] Proxy User. So, this is sort of like

[1:14] synthetic users that use actual browsers

[1:17] to QA your apps. So, gives you a screen
