A proposito di questo titolo

 In this episode of What's the Point?, I talk with Kacper Staniul, founder and CEO of MyArchitectAI, about how purpose often reveals itself not through a single calling—but through curiosity, experimentation, and the discipline to keep building. Kacper's journey began far from startups and artificial intelligence. As a university student in Poland studying materials science, he admits he had little sense of direction. What changed everything was exposure to the internet and the realization that learning wasn't limited to formal education. That discovery sparked curiosity, and curiosity led to building. Rather than waiting for the "right" moment, Kacper started experimenting. He worked full-time while launching side projects at night, learning firsthand that momentum comes not from perfect preparation, but from publishing, listening, and improving in public. One of the most powerful lessons he shares is that if you're not slightly embarrassed by your first version, you probably waited too long to launch. We talk about failure—not as something dramatic, but as something quiet and common: waiting too long, learning too much without acting, hesitating when action is required. Kacper reflects candidly on how those early missteps became teachers, shaping a more disciplined, feedback-driven approach to building. That mindset eventually led him to MyArchitectAI. Not because he was an architect. Not because he was an AI engineer. But because he recognized an opportunity to empower creatives by removing barriers. By partnering with the right people, listening closely to users, and staying focused on solving one clear problem, he helped turn an early-stage idea into a tool used by designers around the world. Throughout our conversation, Kacper challenges a common myth about entrepreneurship—that it's all about taking massive risks. Instead, he describes himself as risk-averse, methodical, and intentional. Purpose for him isn't about gambling; it's about steady improvement, meaningful feedback, and building something that genuinely helps others. This is a human story of growth—about how people find meaning not by waiting for certainty, but by creating, learning, and refining as they go. Purpose, as Kacper shows, often takes shape through the simple act of building something useful for someone else. What's The Point? is a podcast hosted by Bill Ellis featuring real conversations with people who've figured out what matters – their purpose. Each episode explores what motivates them and how they find meaning in what they do.
