The PLG Pivot: The party is decorated. The pricing is out. The banner is hung. The product has launched. The marketing is running.
But the guests and their stories are conspicuously hard to find.
The tell isn't how loud the warning is. It's the position behind it.
Crypto doomers were short the dollar. AI labs are long the thing they say might kill you.
"If we don't build it, someone worse will" isn't a safety argument. It's the alibi.
Trump asserted in a Monday morning social media post that a “SICK conspiracy” was afoot to undermine AI, and claimed his oversight alone was enough to prevent models from going rogue. In another post that afternoon, he called concerns a “HOAX.”
So… if Astra is AGI… and the model they used to solve the very unsolvable Navier-Stokes problem was quoted by Sam Altman as "an even more powerful model"...
What the fuck do they classify that as?!
An Autobot? 🤣 🤷🏽♂️
@solopribuilds Won't it depend heavily on what you are doing? They all have various strengths and weakness that get amplified by the particular use case.
What Happens When AI Tokens Cost More Than Your Employees?
@Jason:
“We, with our agents, hit $300/day per agent using the Claude API, like instantly. And that was doing, maybe, 10 or 20%. That's $100k/year per agent.”
@chamath:
“We're getting to a place where we have to basically now say, ‘What is the token budget that we're willing to give our best devs?’”
“And then if you aggregate it across all people, you can clearly see a trend where you're like, ‘Well, hold on a second, now they need to be at least 2x as productive as another employee.’”
“That is actively happening inside my business, because otherwise I'll run out of money.”
Jason:
“Yeah. This is a very interesting trend that you're not going to hear anybody else talk about, but when do tokens outpace the salary of the employee?”
“Because you're about to hit it. I'm about to hit it.”
