问HN：一个针对拒绝人工智能的年轻创意者的初创企业是否可行？
我是一所大学游戏开发俱乐部的成员，身边有很多才华横溢的程序员和各类艺术家。我观察到几乎每个人都对人工智能持反对态度。这种情绪在进入俱乐部的年轻人中尤为强烈。所谓“反对”，是指他们拒绝在游戏中使用AI生成的内容，并普遍认为使用人工智能是一种道德失败。
与此同时，我在YC创业公司目录中向下滚动，按发布日期排序，发现每个非硬件公司（以及大多数硬件公司）几乎都是完全基于人工智能的。我上面描述的人群，像俱乐部里的年轻创意者，几乎没有自愿使用这些产品的机会。
因此，我认为，随着GPT-6等技术的不断进步，大多数AI创业公司的壁垒逐渐降低，这个市场对于任何愿意付出努力并真正编写人们所需产品的人来说，基本上是一个蓝海（用商业书籍中的术语）。从那时起，网络效应将如同互联网诞生以来一样发挥作用。
我正在探索创建这样一家创业公司的想法（最初是一个我自己工作了近两年的副项目），但我对孵化器、风险投资和投资者的态度感到担忧。缺乏人工智能会让大多数外部投资者望而却步吗？我知道人们在2021年开始了非区块链公司，但围绕人工智能的炒作似乎对任何可能提供资金的人来说更具吸引力。我知道自筹资金对某些公司是可行的，但这会是唯一的方式吗？我非常感谢任何建议。

I am a member of my university's game development club, which puts me around lots of talented programmers as well as artists of all kinds, and I've observed that just about everyone disapproves of AI. The sentiment is especially strong among younger people coming into the club. By "disapproves", I mean they refuse to allow AI-generated content in games and see AI use in general as something like a moral failure.<p>At the same time, I scroll down the YC startup directory, sorting by launch date, and observe that every non-hardware company (and most of the hardware ones) are entirely based on AI. The demographic I described above, young creatives like the ones in this club, has zero chance of voluntarily using one of these products.<p>It seems to me, then, that as the moat for most AI startups drops asymptotically to 0 with GPT-6 et al. becoming more capable, this market is mostly a blue ocean (to use the business-book term) for anyone willing to put in the work and actually code something people want. From there, network effects would work as well as they have since the dawn of the Internet.<p>I am exploring the idea of making such a startup (it started out as a side project which I have been working on by myself for almost 2 years), but I am worried about the attitude of incubators, VCs, and investors in general. Would the lack of AI be a nonstarter for most outside investors? I know people started non-blockchain companies in 2021, but the hype around AI seems orders of magnitude more captivating to anybody who might provide capital. I know bootstrapping is viable for some companies, but would that be the only way? I appreciate any advice people might have.
