In this video, we explore how DeepSeek is revolutionizing the AI industry by offering services at a staggering 95% lower cost than current market rates. If you've ever wondered whether it's possible to compete with tech giants without massive funding, this story will challenge everything you thought you knew about AI development.

Drawing fascinating parallels with the creation of Tetris in resource-constrained Soviet conditions, we reveal how DeepSeek is proving that limitations can spark unprecedented innovation. Watch as we break down how this disruptive company is achieving what many thought impossible - reducing AI service costs from $100 to just $5 - while exposing big tech's ecosystem lock-in strategies.

Key takeaways include:
• Why expensive infrastructure isn't necessary for groundbreaking AI innovation
• How constraints and limitations can actually drive creative problem-solving
• The real secret to competing with tech giants (hint: it's not about money)

In Germany we don't say the Podcast - Episode 29

We react to a supposedly trending Reddit post saying my videos are cringe. Hell breaks loose in the comments and so they made another post... Oh and Valérie tries to trick me once again with German words.

In this video, we reveal the game-changing 'Funnel Focus' framework that's transforming how successful startups allocate their resources, backed by real-world insights from Vivino's journey. If you've ever felt like your team is working incredibly hard but not seeing proportional results, this four-step framework will show you exactly why - and more importantly, how to fix it.

Through a compelling analysis of common startup pitfalls, we break down why working hard isn't enough - you need to work on the right things at the right time. Learn how Vivino discovered this the hard way when they initially focused on marketplace partners and buy buttons before realizing they needed to first create user desire to purchase. This practical guide shows you how to map your funnel, identify critical breaking points, and maintain laser focus until problems are truly resolved.

Key takeaways include:
• Why trying to fix everything simultaneously is killing your startup's progress
• How to identify and tackle your most critical issues in the right order
• The power of saying 'no' to important things that aren't currently your highest priority
