I talked to ~350 Ai founders in the past few months

~%40 are building generic Ai agents that does everything (aka, does nothing)

~%25 are building customer support agents with no differentiation whatsoever

~%20 building coding agents that claude already outshines

~%5 building an Ai CXO that doesn't really make sense in 2026

~%3 building financial agents that does reconciliations (what's new) ~%3 building agents for lawyers that writes/summaries documents (2023 says hello)

~%1 doing an Ai picture story maker for children (0 retention rate) ~%1 doing an Ai video editor that is less video more image+caption slop

~%2 doing Ai therapy/emotional tracking that doesn't really work

Not a single one is building anything new. Every single website is the same (ai agent that can save you xh/week), even the freaking UI is the same vibe coded purple/blue
