Feels like every week there’s another AI announcement that changes the conversation.
OpenAI ships. Anthropic ships. Google ships.

Sometimes it feels like they ship your roadmap too.
Curious how other founders here are thinking about building something with actual staying power right now. Are you focusing more on distribution? Community? Niche expertise? Speed?

I’m helping host a Toronto Tech Week brunch around this exact conversation next weekend with founders, operators, and builders in tech/business. If anyone’s interested in joining the discussion, happy to send the details over. 

Genuine question for other founders/business owners here:
What do you think actually creates defensibility now when AI changes so quickly?
Feels like every new release changes what products/features are valuable, so I’ve been thinking a lot lately about whether the real moat is community, execution, distribution, brand, relationships, niche expertise… or something else entirely.
