The key is to break down companies' activities into the smallest elements and link these elements between different companies, creating chains...

 

Assistant:

Your comment refers to the concept of supply chain management or structuring processes within companies. The key aspect here is to break down the activities of enterprises into smaller, more manageable elements and create connections between them, both internally and externally. This allows for the optimization of workflows, resources, and information flow, leading to improved operational efficiency. Creating such "chains" can involve collaboration between companies within a business ecosystem or internal process optimization.

Were you referring to this in the context of supply chain management, value analysis, or another business approach?

 

User:

No, it's just a note about the possibilities for an online platform where companies would post their profiles.

 

Assistant:

I understand! So, the note concerns an online platform where companies could post their profiles, and the key function of the platform would be to break down the activities of these companies into the smallest possible elements (e.g., specific services, products, competencies, or processes). The platform could then connect these elements between companies, creating a kind of network or chains of collaboration.

The potential functions of such a platform could include:

1. Cataloging companies and their competencies – Each company could specify what processes, services, or products it offers, allowing for easy comparison and search.

2. Connecting complementary elements – The platform could automatically or manually suggest connections between companies based on complementary elements (e.g., one company produces semi-finished products, and another needs such semi-finished products for its final product).

3. Creating networks of collaboration – Companies could build long-term relationships based on process connections, creating more efficient supply chains or joint projects.

4. Managing processes – The platform could enable companies to manage their operations with partners, track process stages, and optimize costs or time.

Is this model of collaboration and automatic company matching in line with your vision for the platform's functionality?

 

User:

Yes.

 

Assistant:

Great! In that case, we can expand the vision of the platform, considering a few key features and benefits:

 

1. Modular company profiles

Each company would set up a profile where it describes its products, services, and processes in detail. It is crucial that this data is divided into the smallest, yet meaningful, units, such as specific tasks, technologies, or skills.

For each of these units, companies could specify the resources they offer or need (e.g., specialized equipment, know-how, semi-finished products, etc.).

2. Advanced matching system

The platform's algorithms would analyze these units to suggest partnerships between companies based on their needs and offers.

The matches could include collaboration at various levels: supplying products, providing services, joint R&D projects, or even outsourcing tasks.

3. Creating value chains

The platform could automatically generate supply chain proposals based on the entered information, linking various business elements in a logical and efficient way.

Companies could see how their processes fit into a larger ecosystem, helping them find new partners or identify gaps in their operations.

4. Dynamic database and company ranking

Companies would be rated based on several criteria, such as quality, timeliness, or compliance with standards.

The database could dynamically grow and present, for example, the best possible matches in real time.

5. Real-time collaboration and negotiation

The platform could offer tools for direct negotiations, allowing companies to quickly agree on terms of collaboration without leaving the platform.

Built-in modules for project management, tasks, and budget would support smooth execution of the collaboration.

6. Integration with ERP/CRM systems

To make processes as seamless as possible, the platform could offer integration with internal enterprise management systems (ERP, CRM), enabling automatic data transfer regarding orders, logistics, or inventory tracking.

7. Advanced data analytics

The platform could provide companies with advanced analytical tools to help them understand where their strengths lie, how to collaborate effectively with other companies, and how to optimize their processes.

8. Community and knowledge exchange

The platform could also serve as a forum for exchanging knowledge and experiences between companies, with the ability to publish case studies, industry articles, or organize webinars.

Such a system could become a key tool for companies to build efficient value chains and improve collaboration, especially in a globalized economy where flexibility and speed are crucial. How do you see this approach to the platform?

User:

Thanks. This note is enough for me.

 

Assistant:

I'm glad I could help! If you need further assistance or to expand on the ideas, feel free to ask. Good luck with the project!

(Chat is from 2024. Concept is from 2014-2016, while I was creating a process of making a website and a series of business proposals. Breaking companys activitis into smaller parts, and usage of those elements for creating custom proposals and website elements was the idea I had at that time. Those building blocks would allow to create custom proposals in an easy way.) 

 

About 25 years ago, I wrote a simple program that represented points in 3D space. Each of these points could be assigned a data structure (in our case, it could be a website with subsections, company activities, or user activities). AI, by observing the relationships between these points, can detect and describe these relationships in the form of functions. The AI can also attempt to find paths between these points, similarly to how Google Maps allows finding a route from point A to point B. In this case, the determined route would be a product or a service of a company, consisting of several components (points or fragments of the company's activities). In a similar way, artificial intelligence itself operates, navigating through data structures, sentences, words, and letters, thus creating a structure of thought. Therefore, applying this way of thinking could be natural for AI algorithms, potentially leading to resource savings.

So, if the system finds a company that sells potatoes, a company that sells machines for making fries, a company that produces beverages... it can create a dish for McDonald's from this. Additionally, a packaging manufacturer can be added, as well as a cleaning service for the restaurant after customers, as the core activities of the company that make up the entire product or service.

Every user can create an app for integrations for other users with own services. Ex. YouTube can create an app (module), that shows last posted video's in catalog/showroom section. Same way Amazon can provide a module that show a short list of users products at Amazon. Meta can provide an app with latest Facebook posts, or Instagram gallery. Creating an easy to use framework for programers, for that reason can be a chalange. Catalog/showroom can be a section builded on those apps. Same can be applyed to restaurants menus, and app/module, showing some part of menu, and then redirecting to a full menu at one of food delivery services. Creating a chain of apps (integrations) for a user and integrating them at users profile, can create a sort of production line/workspace for a worker, just at a website.

Water, wave based recomendation alghoritms known from social media, that can lead to misinformation (what is extremely risky in business areas) vs. clean, direct recomendation of product and services that users might really need (based on content from users profilem/websites).

Imagine that you are running a small business. What would you prefer? Learning how to surf in the waves of networks, or a recomendation system that will provide you with 3-5 contacts from accounting companys in you area, to serve your business. Or a product or service, that combined with your product or service can give your clients and add value?

Restaurant that gets with a service of food delivery company, can create another add value product, service. Goal of recomendation system is to get those two, restaurant and food delivery company, so they can cooperate. 

When array of more than two companys, that makes an add value product or service is created, a delivery chain is created. 

That's for more than 100,000 users. 

Right now there is only one user on that site, and its me. 

My name is Paweł Urbankowski, and if you want to talk about more details, feel free to contact me. (Contact form) 

(This content is a draft of a website content and was created with Joomla! CMS, a mobile phone, and ChatGPT.) 

https://youtube.com/shorts/ZrJbNRWL25I?si=HyJ9KnbLVN9oXlH-

This is a demo, "made" with X.com app AI. Demo contains website content, that is made of X posts, and set in an order. Elements like page header, FAQ, map, about us, contact..., are included. The demo was made about years ago, from time when I send this message. 

Let's say that writing content for a website often takes about a month. You have to answer 20-30 questions, and let’s be honest, the idea of answering 20-30 questions can feel like an insurmountable task, and frankly, most users won’t feel like doing it. But what if those questions and the forms to answer them resembled posts on Facebook, Twitter, etc.? There’s a limit of 20-30 posts, and no more can be published. How that changes the perspective.

 

If a decision were made for resource management of the platform to be handled by artificial intelligence, solutions should be adopted at the initial design stage to ensure that data (basic informational blocks, content of profiles/web pages) are not only optimized for forms and user data entry but also AI-friendly.

As has already been noted, most website creation platforms only offer optimization for search engines when it comes to data and information structures. The more foundational design assumptions that take into account the "big picture" and potential product development opportunities, the easier it will be to create a suitable form for building a website.

Another important area is gathering all legal knowledge regarding what constitutes an offer and what does not, according to regulations. What content should or must be included in an offer, and what shouldn't. What is considered advertising, and what is not, etc. Additionally, how personal data protection laws apply. This area would require the involvement of entire legal departments at the very early stages of product design.

In other words, ask your legal department if they would be able to draft terms and conditions for the website, covering all user variants, terms of service for the site, terms for the entire platform, privacy policies for profiles and the entire platform. These should be scalable in such a way that they can be adapted for 100,000 users. Based on such input data and how the legal department responds to whether, for example, websites can contain something that, from a legal perspective, constitutes an offer to sell a product or service, it will be possible to begin work on the form.

 

Another "demo" https://komi.io/

What it means, when you see this demo? Not my demo. Its competition.

What it means? 

The race have already started. They do not have a vision, its just another project that was taken out of "water", and got investments. They target people with 1,000,000 folowers, not less than 1,000 (having 1,000 contacts/network or even 100 is not so bad in world of business, even if it does not look so impresing in world of social media). 

What it also means, is that from programing point of view, it can be done, the minimal product version can be delivered. What it also means, is that more integrations with webstores and platforms like Amazon will be aviable, in time. 

Its just a part of a biger project that is made of business card, flayer, broshure, catalog, and magazine, with integrations inside platform, and with other platforms.

I will be honest with you. I did not had founds for first demo to show you how it could look like (just a concept, of catalog/showroom part), so im happy they invested those money for that demo. However I guess $10,000 could do the job. If not $5,000. 

Small business owners needs a place to show. A good place. A good place that will provide them with full law support, what is a hidden cost of all websites, so talk with your law departament, and ask them what they can do about it. It can be more important than showing fancy photos... its the most expencive demo, website mockup, that you have every seen in your life. 

(That's a draft of a website.)
