I invent something practically every day and I record the best ideas for the future. For example, one of my inventions from the 2000s was car displays on discs which I tried to implement and even bought a car for, but nothing came of it due to the toxicity of the people I was working with at the time. The idea was stolen, sold, implemented, and stolen again multiple times while I was trying to find co-founders. The ideas I didn't talk about were never realized, while those I did mention were immediately copied, including an installation at Burning Man. I think I was ahead of my time, before AI became mainstream. I don't use AI much now, but I think soon AI will replace all our old technologies.

So sorry to hear about your idea getting stolen. Whay are you recording ideas for the future? What's stopping you from acting on them now?
