- A Chinese maker outlines two fast-start AI side hustles: reselling GPT/Claude accounts (no barrier, repeat purchases, traffic is the hard part) and running WeChat AI review channels monetized with sponsored posts from the wave of new model launches — reportedly up to 100k RMB/month for some.
- He argues overseas "wrapper" products are essentially reselling compute packaged as productized workflows.
- His litmus test for a good business: whether each major model upgrade (GPT6, new image models) makes your business stronger or irrelevant — stay AI-adjacent.
