3. @slobodan_ What's a "Day" in this context?
4. @slobodan_ Where are we today? Every day of our journey is public here: https://knowlo.co/blog/
5. @slobodan_ How to play "a game?"
6. @slobodan_ "The Ten Commandments" https://knowlo.co/blog/day-1-startup-adventure-with-cofoundergpt/
7. @slobodan_ "The Ten Commandments" 1. CofounderGPT may not be a "legal" cofounder, but we will consider it a spiritual cofounder 2. Always use the latest version of ChatGPT and use it for everything possible (we'll do up to 8h/week per person) 3. A startup must be an AI recurring B2B product 4. The goal is $1.000.000 ARR in 3 years
8. @slobodan_ "The Ten Commandments" 5. We need to get to $1M ARR without hiring full-time employees 6. We'll invest $25k as seed funding, and we'll not raise funds from professional VCs 7. CofounderGPT will have a salary of $20 per month until OpenAI decides to give it a raise. We'll take $0-month until profitability 8. We always need to find the cheapest and most efficient way to do things, and we should use ChatGPT-4 and other AI tools
9. @slobodan_ "The Ten Commandments" 9. We do not work on weekends unless due to exceptional circumstances, it's the same for CofounderGPT 10. We will post an update every working day on our product blog

18. @slobodan_ CofounderGPT ideas: •AI-powered FAQ generator •AI-assisted knowledge base search •Customer query summarization and topic extraction •AI-generated quick start guides
