Description
I decided I need to keep building a bit more before marketing. I’m trying to hunt down a bug.
Plus, I talk about calling the last two recessions.

Summary
Daily Update: Build and Market Insights
I shared my daily update on my build and public log, explaining the challenges I faced while debugging a mysterious error with my YouTube transcript agent. I discussed testing various AI models for chapter summarization, notably comparing Gemini and OpenAI solutions, and the improvements as well as persistent bugs I encountered. I also described tweaks on the landing page and product strategy, highlighting my mixed feelings about marketing versus product development. Later, I recounted my personal market experiences, shared investment timing advice from past financial crises, and expressed concerns over upcoming economic downturns amid rapid technological and global changes. My reflections combine technical updates with market outlooks, underlining risks of a potential recession as influenced by unprecedented global shifts.
