Do people even remotely want this?

We're going to make, you know, an AI that figures out what everybody should order in a restaurant. I don't know, whatever it is. We're going to raise $2 million. We're going to hire a bunch of programmers. We're going to program this up over the next year. And then we're going to start selling it to restaurants, our new software package to restaurants. Well, that's a horrible execution idea.

You know, people already, the hard thing about business is people already know They've already filled up their 24 hours a day. You and I and everybody listening, we already have things to do all 24 hours of the day.

How about instead, a friend of yours has a restaurant. We go to that friend and say, listen, can we go from table to table this night and see if we can help everybody with their orders? And we'll see, oh, everybody already had their preferences even before they got to the restaurant, they knew what they wanted to order. So this is a bad idea.
