Most meaningful shifts look unreasonable before they look obvious. Delulu is the willingness to build anyway.

I build systems where AI amplifies human capabilities & judgment instead of replacing it. Most people sell templates & promise replacement. I ship solutions that fit the people using them. Most of what I build didn’t exist as a template. That’s usually the point.

I had spent over a thousand dollars & countless hours trying to build an AI-powered grant writer - custom trained models, mentor consultations, everyday learning new tools & persuading people. Until one day GPT 3.5 came out and outperformed everything we had built...

It seemed like the end. AI was becoming too good and literally replaced my work. I was devastated, but nevertheless kept learning & building. Immersed even more in AI & tech, catching up with technologies to assist and augment me.

For one hackathon I challenged myself to build NoQuantumBS - a tool that assesses the cost & time speedup of running your code on a quantum computer. In less than a week. [Nobody cared enough to pay, but that's a different story, lol]

But I still see very little practical applications & builds being shared online. Much discourse and AI "experts" have little depth on the subject. Templates without context. "Opportunities" without data. "Possibilities" without proof.

I noticed the overall quality of everything online tanking. Content on my newsfeeds becoming impersonal. Looking like a copy of an imitation. Synthetic. Artificial. People were adopting AI as a crutch - "Generate me a LinkedIn post", "Is this real?", "Create a course"...

But in the real world I saw the people who made AI work with them biggest winners. Use their knowledge & data. Speed up their processes. Becoming an extension of themselves. Enabling them to do more to be more.

So I build for people who’ve already decided their timeline is possible — they just need the systems to prove it. That’s Delulu Solutions.
