Indie developer yihuiindie shared a chat where ChatGPT, drawing on its memory of him, laid out a 10-point 10-year plan: transition from AI content creator to product founder, bet on one core product per phase, turn followers into direct users and repeat buyers, track net profit/retention/free time over MRR, build cash reserves before scaling, and schedule sleep and relationships into the long-term plan. He adds that despite ChatGPT's flaws, its personalization keeps him loyal.
