YCombinator (startup accelerator, more) requests for startups is a list of niches where they want more people to work in. I highly recommend reading it because:
- they've just updated it 6 days ago;
- they've seen a lot of startups, so they map YC experience/expertise into what they think are interesting (high demand) areas;
- they try to foresee the world trends, so this is another interpretation of the future for you.
—-
There are many items on this list that I may comment more. Let's start from the first items: "applying ML to robotics" and "using ML to simulate physical world".
The robotics industry is developing further, and while they may struggle with hardware, the software part is far more important. ML technology is improved by a lot and there are many possibilities to apply the tech in robotics. For example, when communicating with people; converting the communication results into physical world actions; (robots) making decisions given physical and digital worlds information.
If we consider such possibilities with the other item on the list, "New defense technology", we may ponder even more about such fusion's ramifications and potential: AI, robots, weapons.
The development of either AI, robots, weapons (and any combination of those) is inevitable, so YC only indicates the demand/potential in those domains.

It's productive to not execute the idea that just came to your mind and sparked your great interest immediately.

Years ago, when I haven't build a lot of solutions yet, I usually started to almost instantly create what came to my mind because I was driven by a huge energy of my fascination about problems I may solve. Also, I enjoyed building solutions with code.
Of course, I didn't finish many such things I've started to create because:
- the idea wasn't mesmerizing enough to continue building a solution. Coding 4 hours vs. coding a month is a significant difference.
- I understood that the idea didn't solve problems.
- I found out I'm interested in building other ideas.
And other reasons but they all come down to the absence of reasonable planning. We have limited energy and time, so it's more productive to allocate them to the projects that make sense in the long-term.
Of course, this statement is obvious but I fall into executing not properly planned projects sometimes.

Being honest with yourself is demanding but fruitful.
---
I came up with many ideas that solved real problems, I thought. I had those problems, hence, thinking of potential solutions was simple. However, it's not enough to have any problems: some of them aren't worth solving. The problem should bother a person to the extent that they take action to address it.
I sometimes deceived myself about the importance of the problems I attempted to address. As a result, I developed effective solutions for what I believed were significant issues, but they were only perceived as 'effective' within the distorted perspective I had created.
What could have been different? By providing myself with honest answers, I could have avoided wasting energy on endeavors destined to be abandoned in the end.

The new video era is coming.
Idea: Make YouTube videos about anything
OpenAI has introduced a new video model called Sora, alongside others, which assists in generating a video based on a prompt. With this technology, you no longer need to search for stock videos to accompany your narrations. Creating YouTube videos is gradually becoming simpler and more accessible, as creators can now generate customized video content directly from their prompts, eliminating the need for extensive sourcing and editing of existing video footage.
What's needed: create a YouTube channel, create a scenario for your video, generate short videos for the scenario, combine them all with your (or others') voice, upload. Though, remember: it's very hard to obtain even some views on YouTube right now; and, with more video creators coming, it will become harder. Evaluate the opportunity before jumping in!
Or, you could also create solutions to streamline the process. There are many possibilities.

Some time ago, I worked on a solution that creates simple websites. It didn't have any UI interface. There were 10 or so primary templates where their details were adjusted on the fly such as colors, button radiuses, fonts, and shadows. So, even if you have a small number of templates, you could generate thousands of visually different simple websites.
However, every use case or niche may require a different set of templates (not just HTML blocks but also forms, etc.), and that's why people usually try complicated website builders with enormous UI interfaces (e.g., Webflow): they provide them flexibility. For instance, if I want to build an advertising agency landing page, it may be time-consuming for me to find a template I like, and it's more difficult to adjust it in the way I prefer it to be. Or, if I'm a small cafe owner, I don't know about tech much, so, I probably ask someone with more tech background to help me with a website.
Why create a tool for many niches? You may pick just one. Do people need websites? Yes, and businesses need them more and are more willing to pay for having one. But you don't want to spend a few years building a regular website generator and then even more years adjusting the solution to customers in quite different niches.
What if you pick one niche and one use case? For example, a wedding photographer's niche, landing page/portfolio use case. Talk to many of them, and ask if they need websites, and how they use them. Identify patterns and build a solution for them only.
In this case, you don't even need an app for that: you approach every one of them individually and generate HTML for what they want, and sell. After some time you may want to switch to a different model: self-selling, so you create a UI and set up a full-fledged SaaS. Or, just sell 1500 templates individually.

Idea: Community engine
A website engine/template that allow businesses/persons/communities to create a place for their community: useful resources, articles, a place for the discussion, and other related features.
If I were to start a community, I would ponder for a while what technology I should use to create a website, a messaging channel, a newsletter maybe? So why not having a template for all of that? For example, this solution would provide a ready-made website for the community's searchability in search engines, a Discord/Slack/Telegram/etc. platform template for discussions, a service to run newsletters, and other features that this community may have.
Currently, there are many things to consider when running a community: a technology for a website, a lot of resources to read on how to run the comm. in Discord/etc., how to take payments, etc.

⚖️ Tesla Faces Court Battle Over Autopilot’s Role in 2018 Crash
Tesla heads to court again over a 2018 crash that resulted in the death of Wei “Walter” Huang. The trial, set for the week of April 8 in California, will assess whether Tesla’s driver-assist features bear responsibility for the tragic incident. Investigations revealed both autopilot and distracted driving contributed to the crash. Huang’s family alleges Tesla lacked essential safety features such as automatic braking at the time.
Despite previous legal actions against Tesla’s driver-assist technology, the automaker has never been held liable. With mounting regulatory scrutiny and ongoing controversies, this court case marks another critical moment for Tesla and its investors.

🇪🇺 European Parliament Approves Landmark Artificial Intelligence Act
The European Union has approved its landmark Aritficial Intelligence Act, placing strict rules on high-risk AI uses. It’s a bold move, signaling Europe’s uncompromising stance on protecting rights over unbridled innovation. While the act provides helpful guardrails, the heavy regulatory burden could stifle startups lacking resources for compliance. As investors, we must assess whether the tradeoff is worthwhile for EU-focused AI plays versus more permissive regions. Responsible development is crucial, but an overly restrictive regime risks being outpaced globally. Navigating this new reality may be critical.

This move to rally the user base against the ban could backfire if people feel like they’re just being used for lobbying instead of being valued by TikTok. It’s a risky move that shows TikTok is worried, but this back-and-forth is likely far from over.
