TLDR

A listener’s account of Josh Elman’s episode with Ollie Forsyth highlights his consumer-product checklist: describable value, what people stop doing, whether they spread the product and whether they stick. The listener recounts Elman’s view that Discord won through the hard-to-quit behavior of gaming and talking at once, not features. The listener also relays Elman’s bet for this wave: AI joins the group chat.

Jesse Middleton@srcasmFinally listened to @ollieforsyth's episode with @joshelman, his first podcast since joining a16z. His checklist for consumer products stuck with me: describable value, what did people stop doing, do they spread it, do they stick. And on social: Discord didn't win on features. Gaming plus talking at once was a behavior people couldn't quit. His bet for this wave: AI joins the group chat. My favorite line: they can clone what you built in days, but they can't clone where you're going.20d
