Isolation and loneliness are significant problems in society, and people are increasingly turning to AI as a solution.

Additionally, loneliness continues to rise across all age groups. This and the emergence of gen AI have resulted in a rapidly growing industry of AI-powered companions you can talk to.

“Why do people become entrepreneurs?” I don‘t think there’s a single business owner who would answer “Eh, I'm not sure. I certainly don't know why I did,” if you asked them that question. There's always a reason behind an entrepreneurial venture — and aspiring business owners should know why their potential peers in the entrepreneurship community decided to go out on their own.
