Building: The Trust Layer for the Agentic AI era

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

“Compute will get cheaper” is a risky assumption to build your margins around.

An agent can make dozens of model calls to complete one task. Add retries and failed attempts, and the bill grows quickly.

I’d want to know the cost per completed task before pricing the service.

[Social Capital @socialcapital]

Renting Nvidia’s H100 costs 45% more than it did in December.

It went on sale in 2022, and two newer generations have come out since.

Yet, demand for compute is so far ahead of supply that older GPUs are getting more expensive.

@TheHashton Building "The Trust Layer", always good to connect with others building in AI

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@ChaosLensX 99.8% is a striking result, how do you think the debate around the islands will evolve from here?”

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@JuyanaIslam @X Great to see the indie spirit here, I’m building The Trust Layer and always keen to connect with people building their own ideas

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@MGMurray1 I’ve been exploring a related theme in my newsletter, The Trust Layer, about how agents can connect information across systems while keeping people in control, glad to see this being explored in healthcare too

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@Jacobmalherbe21 Sometimes one well placed ad can help people find answers they didn’t know they were looking for

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@DomP_9 I’d been raising similar concerns even before the attack and recently shared my thoughts on this as well

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@Ashutosh_Sidh Yes definitely

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@lluisgeno “At any cost” sounds reassuring until we have to define who decides the cost

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@b4dgerr It is same as moving a pebble with a bulldozer. It can, but it doesnt make sense to use a capable model like Opus for meagre tasks

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@Burgess_33 @theo 😂

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@cnnorb @gauraavvii 😂

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@gauraavvii People are going to pay for it. More people will start their own ventures and they will pay for subscriptions. More like how we pay for milk.

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@elonmusk At this point, the unveiling is the product

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

@ifwmilkcake thanks 🙏🏼

[Gautam Hazari @GautamHOriginal]

In 1988, an eight-page letter from my maternal uncle changed how I saw myself and the world around me.

Decades later, its lessons continue to shape my thinking on identity, trust and the humanisation of technology.
