“The best thing that you can do to build intuition on these products is just to use them. The quality of consumer AI apps on mobile is so much better and more sophisticated than they were 6 months ago. Things are changing so fast — the best way to stay on top is just to use them.”

Use the products yourself — intuition is the moat

Olivia's tactical advice for founders trying to read the market: stop reading hot takes and actually use the AI apps shipping each month (Wabi, Gizmo, Sakai, Poke, Tasklet). Mobile AI quality jumped massively in 6 months — hands-on use is the only way to see what's resonating.
