116 - If I had to rebuild from nothing, AI would be my cofounder
If you had to rebuild from scratch today, how would you do it? This episode explores why AI can be the ultimate cofounder, amplifying speed, insight, and creative execution for modern builders.
Start from Zero. Build with Intelligence.
Every founder, creator, and builder eventually gets asked this question:
“If you lost everything, your capital, your contacts, your credibility, what would you do?”
In today’s world, the answer is surprisingly straightforward.
I’d start with AI.
In this episode of Pattern Cognition, I share why AI wouldn’t just be a tool, it would be my cofounder.
Here’s why:
• AI collapses the cost of iteration.
From content creation to market research to prototyping, the gap between idea and execution is now razor thin.
• AI amplifies pattern recognition.
It helps you see what others miss. Spot gaps. Find the edge. Refine offers before the market does it for you.
• You can start with curiosity, not credentials.
Even without a network, you can ask better questions and get strategic feedback in real-time.
• Execution speed becomes your advantage.
With AI, you test faster, learn faster, and adapt faster without waiting on funding or hiring.
• The playing field is shifting.
It’s no longer just about who you know or how much capital you raise. It’s about who thinks best with machines.
This isn’t about chasing hype.
It’s about using intelligence to accelerate insight and turning that into momentum when you’ve got nothing else.
Listen to this episode of Pattern Cognition to explore how to rebuild smarter, not just harder.

Yeah, I was, I was asked the question, if I had no money, no networks, and had to start again completely, what would I do? And I think today, in today's world, the, the answer is, for me, obvious.
