Helped build a startup to $180M. Now building GOM - AI systems that make work disappear. Sharing real deployments, failures and lessons.

am i doomed when the singularity comes?

[Benji @boiopollo]

@mewwts It’s the same infra - just different amounts no?

[Benji @boiopollo]

@andrewrazeghi @BoBrainerd @opheliaapi Hmm is that a preference statement?

As in what would you rather that they do?

I think with any uncharted territory where real value lies & you need to move fast to get it, risk is a deliberate & understood addition

[Benji @boiopollo]

@tenobrus Question is - does it matter?

[Benji @boiopollo]

This might be super dumb but…

Is there a use case for crypto here?

Agentic trust infrastructure for restaurant reservations?

[JC Bahr-de Stefano @jbahrdestefano]

Nice going Instinct

[Benji @boiopollo]

all these labs are building agents with direct vm access that can run chrome instances,

minimum 4Gib RAM required probably

each with direct egress needed

how much are they spending on VMs?

Maybe little computers for rent is really the next AI-shovel

[Benji @boiopollo]

We forget X is a bubble.

Most ordinary people I speak to didn’t know they were still using sonnet on low for all tasks.

Building for consumer means building something so intuitive that no understanding of AI is needed

@birdabo I don't know if games were limited by assets to be perfectly honest

I feel like fun is the magic that's missing

@mattshumer_ "please describe your financial goals"

me: "enough tokens for this"

[Benji @boiopollo]

@ashebytes I do wonder how much actual use comes from this

from my teaching days I've seen that much of self-driven learning is super student-dependant

[Benji @boiopollo]

@nichochar really?

i've found models suck with the notion mcp - seems to run into rate limits all the time

[Benji @boiopollo]

All this means - agents that don’t talk to each other are doomed to fail.

This is the future of ai employees. Agents in a team redesigning workflows.

caddie catches stuff that even Astra misses

[Benji @boiopollo]

if you're using your agent to build agents...

you need to check this out.

distilled wisdom from an agent building textbook with 44k github stars

caddie runs your agent through the book's framework for agent building. Stops your agent builder from overbuilding

[Benji @boiopollo]

so are we all just gonna forget that every single AI lab and most major infra went down at the same time or...?

[Benji @boiopollo]

@MitchellKeller_ Plus all the big three labs route their VM egress traffic through the zero trust identity

They’re never going bankrupt

[Benji @boiopollo]

Agents suck at building agents.

i gave the viral 44k github start book to gpt sol and still got garbage

so I turned it into a skill.

/caddie review this agent architecture

one command

@andrewchen Limitation to VR was hardware imo not navigable assets
