MENA's food distribution market is $200B. It runs on WhatsApp voice notes. ERPs older than TikTok. Orders processed by hand at 2am in 4 languages. We're building the AI OS underneath all of it. Today @Google backed us for their MENA + Türkiye Accelerator. linkedin.com/posts/openfarmi…

1-don’t read bulleted slides, photos are great 2- tell a story 3- it needs a beginning, middle, and an end 4- practice over and over and over, it will evolve as you do 5- build argument over years of research (hard to do, but was true in this case)

I gave GPT-4 a budget of $100 and told it to make as much money as possible. I'm acting as its human liaison, buying anything it says to. Do you think it'll be able to make smart investments and build an online business? Follow along 👀
