“只需用Claude构建它”悖论
目前有一种奇怪的现象，人们对自己时间的价值并没有充分认识，远低于其实际价值。这种情况在一定程度上一直存在，但人工智能似乎将其推向了极端。
我经常遇到“我为什么不能用Claude来构建这个？”这样的问题。
我想说……是的，你可能可以？我花了大约100个小时来让一个最小可行产品（MVP）运作，并尝试以每月30到50美元的价格进行市场推广。然后我和一个每小时赚100美元的人交谈，他们说：“是的，这是个好主意，但我可以用Claude和n8n在几周内把这个搞定。”
假设他们在特定用例上花费了大约10个小时。这相当于他们花费了1000美元的时间来避免支付每月30美元。
从表面上看，这毫无意义。但这种情况仍在不断发生。Claude的订阅费用已经支付，所以输出感觉是免费的。与此同时，支付一个产品的费用，即使是便宜的，似乎是一个真正的决策。
因此，出现了这种奇怪的结果：人们宁愿花费更多的时间来避免花一点钱。
每个人都在告诉我关注真正的痛点。问题是，我所解决的痛点是真实存在的。人们只是想自己解决它。在企业B2B领域，这种情况一直是合理的，因为你有工程团队，构建与购买之间的权衡不仅仅是时间与金钱的关系。但现在我看到创始人和消费者也在做同样的事情，我从未见过人们如此轻视自己的时间。
对此我还不确定该如何处理。也很想知道其他人是否也有类似的观察。

There’s a weird paradigm right now where people don’t value their own time anywhere close to what it’s actually worth. This has always been true to a degree, but AI seems to have pushed it into overdrive.<p>I keep running into “why can’t I just build this with Claude?”<p>And it’s like… yeah, you probably can? I’ve put ~100 hours into getting an MVP working and trying to market it at around 30-50 bucks a month.
Then I’ll talk to someone making 100 an hour and they go, “yeah this is a good idea but I’ll just hack this together in a few weeks with Claude and n8n”<p>Lets say on the low side for their specific use case they spend ~10 hours. That’s $1k of their time to avoid paying 30 bucks a month.<p>On paper that makes zero sense. But it keeps happening. The Claude sub is already paid for, so the output feels free. Meanwhile paying for a product, even a cheap one, feels like a real decision.<p>So you get this weird outcome where people will happily spend way more in time to avoid spending a tiny bit of money.<p>Everyone keeps telling me to focus on real pain points. The thing is, the pain I’m solving is real. People just want to solve it themselves. That always made sense in enterprise b2b space when you have an engineering team and there are more tradeoffs than just time vs money for build vs buy. But now I’m seeing founders and consumers do the same thing, and I’ve never seen people treat their own time as this expendable.<p>Not sure what to do with that yet. Curious if others are seeing the same thing.
