The problem the speaker is facing is related to the interchangeability of the balance sheet and cash flows sections, specifically in investing activities. 3. The speaker is trying to figure out how to generate a JSON structure that allows for more flexibility in creating line items for investing activities, so users can input their own formulas for changes. 4. Another topic discussed is the importance of understanding the specific use cases of the target market in order to prioritize features and move towards monetization faster. 5. The speaker mentioned the concept of finding early adopters and focusing on their pain points to make necessary improvements to the product. 6.
