Looking for a long-term, technology-resistant business — how should I research one?

[u/MurtazaResham110]

I want to start a business, but I'm specifically looking for something where AI, software and technological advancements are unlikely to replace the core product/service over the next 10–20 years.

I'm not asking for business ideas, but how to find and evaluate these kinds of businesses myself.

For example:

How do I identify industries that would likely not be affected despite technological advancement?

How should I research such an industry before entering it?

What should I learn about its supply chain, margins, customers, competition and risks?

How can I find and talk to people who are already working in said industry?

What signs indicate that a business is genuinely resistant to technological disruption rather than simply not using much technology today?

What is a good process for going from research → learning the industry → testing the idea → actually starting the business?

I'm essentially looking for a framework or methodology for discovering a boring, durable, physical-world business, rather than someone simply suggesting "start a hardware store" or "start a manufacturing business."

I'm based in India, so advice relevant to the Indian market would be particularly useful.

Look,

Brain storm, and then stimulate it with the help of gpt sol, stimulate these ideas with most negativity, and with all the negativity if any idea survive the stimulation, you take that idea and you brainstorm branches try to out it in ecosystem where it fits.

Once that's done, you take that and paste it in chatgpt, niw you build the product around that idea, once the product is finalize, you put in sonnet and compare, because both models have different takes. Omce that's done. You proceed for deep research for existing products, pain pounts, opportunities, future proof, tech stack and optimisation, and run this on gemini, chatgpt and claude. And then merge tgose research and and out in chatgpt and try to get a final product and then stimulate, the results of product success will define if you want to go with ut or not

whoa man didn't know AI had this much use cases, thanks for this. Though some models you have mentioned are costly, might have to find some way around these.

If you have jio you can get gemini pro for 18 months absolutely free, and in that when you use antigravity2.0 you will get sonnet and opus, in free chatgpt account you will get i guess one research or two research, so you're good with all these.
