I'd be cautious about providing direct solutions, but generating and asking questions using AI, based on the context the user provides, could potentially help them see their issues from different angles and possibly uncover blind spots. This is what I've been doing at https://www.deepwander.com

I've been juggling side projects while working full-time as an engineer for the last 15+ years. Most of these projects tanked, but a few have started to bring in some side income. About 6 months ago, I went fully self-employed. I'm not at a Silicon Valley salary range yet, but I should hopefully be there in a year or so.

I've got a background in B2B and product development, and I don't think it would be too hard for me to raise some capital, but I'm intentionally choosing the indie/bootstrapped route as I want to maintain my relaxed lifestyle and have complete ownership and freedom over what I work on and how I do it.
I also enjoy working on B2C way more than B2B because I like seeing my impact on an individual level. But I digress. :)

I've created a little tool to do a semantic search of the books on Read This Twice. I'm using Open AI embeddings to create vectors from the book descriptions and user reviews, which I then store in Pinecone. Whenever a user makes a search request, it's vectorized and then used to search Pinecone.

One great way to find books to read is to see what people you look up to recommend. I've built a service that scans twitter for book recommendations from ~2000 thought leaders. https://www.readthistwice.com/people
