What to build next? With Bill Gross, IdeaLab.ai

The author hosted Bill Gross, founder and chairman of Idealab, for a conversation with the Exponential View community about building businesses in the AI age. Gross recently founded Idealab.ai, which uses AI to explore potential business ideas, evaluate them against real-world problems, and help founders pressure-test and refine them. The author highlights Gross's emphasis on iteration and speed, noting that AI can generate ideas and handle more of the mechanics but founders still need to listen to customers, exercise judgment, and adapt.
