I started a free Discord for AI professionals who are actually building and deploying systems inside real companies.
My day job at Avolis is helping companies adopt AI in their real operations. We upskill their employees and work through adoption with them, and clients are seeing 20-40% efficiency gains after 90 days. But getting there is messy. Most of the problems that come up mid-implementation don't have answers you can Google.
The most useful conversations I have are with other people doing this work hands-on. So I made a place for that.
It's not a course and there's nothing to buy. Just practitioners comparing notes, thinking out loud, and working through implementation problems with people who actually understand them.
It's meant to stay smaller and more legit, and I'd like to keep it that way.

If you know someone deep in this kind of work, send it their way.
been thinking about starting a group for people who actually work in AI, building real systems, not just posting takes about it. get together, compare notes, work through actual problems
it won't be a course or paid community. it would be professionals who want to think out loud with other people doing the work
would anyone be interested in that?
so this turned into more than I planned. started as a small group idea and I ended up building out a full Discord, weekly calls, channels for finding collaborators on projects, a job board, gigs and freelance stuff, events and meetups, the works. still centered on people actually working in AI, just with more ways to actually use it than I originally pitched
DM me and I'll send you the link

The quickest way to learn anything is by doing it yourself. How I learned very quickly was by building agents on OpenClaw and building Hermes Agents.
@NousResearch ended up being the better agents overall imo and they have guides on their discord.
If you have any interest in building really good agents I would join their discord. Good tutorials and good community.
Always happy to answer any questions you have as well.
Totally valid question, it’s because we aren’t there yet. The level of trust with agents is still relatively low for majority of people. They still like to see what’s happening in each of the platforms they work on. Once agents can provide that same visibility consistently and have better guardrails than current agents do, people will slowly start to switch to these agents for more of their work. Then these software companies will have to open up access to these feature sets being accessible by agents. People will still use these softwares but won’t be using the user interface any more.
We ask AI what it knows. Singapore wants chatbots to show what they don’t.
New “information cards” would put capabilities, limits and data use in one place.
Trust may depend less on better answers than visible boundaries.
