AI Costs Will Drop 90%+ in 12 Months | Ben Cera

Every ambitious company is trying to be a final company. What's a final company? It's, you know, the interface is just like you talk to an AI, and it does everything else, right? My blunt thing is like, yeah, I mean, I agree with you, there's no more mode. Like, you know, it's like, there's no more mode, but the mode is, in the meantime, well, you know, before there's a final company, like Entropiq swells everything else, everything.

The opportunity for entrepreneurs, at least on the online space, because there's also the offline space, which is probably, there's a lot more stuff to do there. But on the online space, I think it's like speed, taste, you know, marketing, products. And I think there's still a lot of wiggle on there.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to MTS. Today, I am joined by Ben, who is the CEO and founder of Polsia. Welcome to MTS.

Ben Cera (0:49)

Hi, nice to see you.

SPEAKER_2 (0:50)

Excited to see you again. I know we just had dinner last night together, and so it's great to actually take our conversations from behind the camera, put them in front of the camera. But something I just found out two minutes ago is that Polsia spelled backwards actually stands for AI Slop. If you spell it, you mix the letters around, you got AI Slop and you had a big shirt on it yesterday. It's an AI Slop and a little emoji underneath it was very cute. Where did this name come from?

Ben Cera (1:16)

I mean, honestly, it started when my lawyer, a year ago asked me that I need to name the corporation on C Corp. And I thought about the name in like two minutes and I was like, it doesn't really matter because it's the name of C Corp. And six months later, when I decided to build this AI that runs your company autonomously, I was like, I think this is a cool name. I think I can buy the .com, which I did for like a thousand bucks, which is really cheap. And I think it's like nobody cares really about the name. And it's like, it sounds good. And like it was more like, you know what, it's fun. And actually it paid so much because everyone on Twitter for like six months, you know, reacted to that. Like, is it really AI Slop and made backwards? And like, yeah, it makes you talk.

SPEAKER_2 (1:56)

Did you come up with the name before AI Slop was this big thing that everyone was talking about? And so you kind of already...

Ben Cera (2:02)

I mean, no, it's like, you know, Polsia is an AI that does everything for you, that helps you run your business, that like it helps you with coding, with marketing, with support, with everything. And so it produces, it's like AI just like slopping away.

But the reason why it's AI Slop backwards is because the idea of the company was like to build AI tools that are actually beneficial for humanity, that create actually, you know, that enable humans to like use their 20% taste while AI does 80% of the grunt work. And so that's why it's backwards. And I didn't call it as aslop.com.

SPEAKER_2 (2:34)

Fair enough, fair enough. But let's dive a little bit more into that. So you say one of your big goals is to build AI tools that help push humanity forward where humans can still use their 20% judgment, the 20% taste, what makes them uniquely human. And then all that grunt work actually gets sent off to the agent. So they do all the miscellaneous tasks that no one else wants to do. Do you have an example of that? How does it actually work? How are customers using you guys today?

Ben Cera (2:57)

I mean, for example, right, if like, you know, you set up your business and you, I mean, at the very, very start of the company, like you, you tell you the idea and then, you know, the traditional tools, you have to prompt it away, right? And spend a lot of time prompting. Well, Polsia, there's like a button called auto mode where you tell Polsia, hey, just work for six hours straight, and it will just go away and build it, right? So it starts with your idea and it actually does all the typical stuff that, like, you know, a non-technical founder may not know how, they're not a product manager, they don't know all the intricacies of, like, how to build an actual production-ready site. And so that's what Polsia does. That's one example. Another example is, like, later in the game, you're like, okay, I want to maybe run some ads. I want to run some mid ads. There's a lot of, like, you know, things that you have to set up when you set up mid ads are, like, extremely complex and nobody wants to deal with. However, the actual creative work, the messaging, the actual angle, is it is it statics? Is it like, you know, the captions is something that the human can, like, tell the actually I don't like this. You know what? Make it more like this, more like that. You know, if it's an AI influencer, I want it to be this type of an AI influencer. You know, and so you just talk to the AI, the same way a CEO talks to its team and is like, guys, for the marketing, I think we should go a different direction.
