In this episode, Lakshya and Shashi dive deep into how AI has completely changed what it means to “build” as a founder. From using tools like Cursor, Claude, and GPT to ship real products without engineers — to launching Notillo, a “Duolingo for college classes".
We reflect on what’s changed since the early days of ScholarAI, why distribution and user love now matter more than technical moats, and how tools like Cursor have quietly become the new default IDE for modern builders.
They also debate:
Do non-technical founders even need cofounders anymore?
Why “GPT wrapper” is a broken framework
Whether Perplexity will survive the search wars
Why Cursor’s rise might signal a new class of AI-native software companies
How they use Claude + Cursor to write, code, debug, and deploy — fast
