@sonyatweetybird Generalization might hinge on a new 'translation' layer.
Coding eats the stack if we can represent domain knowledge as an explicit, programmable layer. Once knowledge is formatted for code-like reasoning, the 'coding agent' becomes the 'everything agent.'

[Imad Riachi @donriachi]

@jonathanbrnd As soon as you can 'encode' the primitives of marketing so that they can be addressed as code, an engineer augmented with the likes of Claude Code will rule them all. I believe that 'encoding' layer of domain expertise is completely missing from the current conversations...

Our very own @MihaylovVelizar from @HonuAi, building in public and showcasing some of the super cool features of our newly released product.

And we are now live. Next up, build the project and find the first 10 pilot users. Stay tuned...

@gregisenberg Big believer in the holdco model. I’ve been betting on portfolios of (semi-) autonomous businesses. @gregisenberg, will we see a $1B one-person holdco before a $1B one-person company?

[Imad Riachi @donriachi]

@mandrusko1 Great post. I think it will also be interesting is the rethinking of the Palantir model from the grounds up in an AI-first world. Ex: Can you have AI agents instead of FDEs to collect data, build the domain knowledge, and automate how this gets embedded in the platform...

4/4 It’s early. It’s evolving. It has rough edges.

But if you’ve ever struggled to bridge the gap between a prototype and a real business, we built this for you.

For the ones who build. Let's monetise.

Why do so many great prototypes never become businesses?

The gap between "working code" and "working business" is everything except the code.

Today, we’re launching Honu.

The AI Business Operations Stack that runs the company while you build the product. 🧵👇

[Imad Riachi @donriachi]

3/4 At the core is your Business Brain. 🧠

A living source of truth that plugs directly into your workflow. Your agents use it to guide every decision—from code to growth—based on business reality, not guesswork.

🚀 Honu is now in Private Beta!! Building and operating a business will never be the same again...

📣 Calling on all vibe coders using Cursor/Claude Code in my network. If you are looking to move from vibe coding to vibe-founding are up to help us test our product prior to launch then please sign up to the list, and we will get you up and running in no-time.

We won't be able to get everyone in for this private beta, so hurry up to guarantee a spot, and be among the first to get a glimpse of what entrepreneurship 2.0 looks like.

Let's start launching Ai-operated companies!

@sundeep https://t.co/MOvuJSrE1w wrote about this as well in the @TheEconomist last week.

[Imad Riachi @donriachi]

Last month @TheEconomist published on how the latest wave of AI is bringing chip making to the center stage in the AI race. I wrote to them about my take on alternate avenues worth exploring for AI’s next leap.
