The market is unsympathetic to your passion. You can build whatever you want, but ultimately you're beholden to the market and what it wants. Without customer demand, you don't have a business.
Factors that influence demand: - Changes in price or supply for related goods - Government policy, investment, R&D - The ubiquity of related technologies - Evolving societal trends and tastes - Rising (or falling) incomes - Evolution in a category - Economic cycles

Agreed with all. Would also add “awareness”. Sometimes we don’t know what we want and someone comes along and illuminates that need. The actual thing will be generation-specific. But underlying job-to-be-done or Maslow’s Hierarchy will be the common denominator.

Based on that, one can totally create demand and a whole new category. Human nature won’t change so fast and our needs are primal, then cyclical i.e. somewhat predictable.

Those are all slow crescendos. There is also the rapid rise effect that happens when someone says "No, it doesn't have to be this way" and does what Jobs, Hastings, or Musk has done. Blockbuster had data on all of those slow builds but still missed streaming.

Do we classify this as creating a new demand? Or just evolving the medium of an existing demand?
