Making $$$ with Sam Altman's Solopreneurship Thesis

On this episode I explore Sam Altman's prediction that AI will enable the first one-person billion-dollar company. I outline how this would work through AI agents handling traditional business functions like engineering, design, marketing, and sales, creating an organizational structure where one founder manages multiple AI agents. While technically possible, Isenberg believes this requires perfect conditions and will likely emerge between 2026-2028.
