@dtrinh you are 1/1 my man .. everything you touch turns into design gold and I mean that

[Anish Acharya @illscience]

An opportunity hiding in plain sight is that much of the Instagram audience seems to prefer the Muse visual interface to iMessage.

Muse has done some things well, but in many ways it’s a v1 UI for the most powerful capability that’s been invented since ChatGPT.

Somebody’s going to build a more opinionated design that’s counter-positioned against Muse / specialized for an audience in a way that’s hard to copy, and run away with a really valuable part of the market.

@heypeterjames For sure - i think the group chat bit is very very exciting and hasn't yet been cracked. The key problem is how do you create an agent that increases social status when you add it to a chat ..

@rezakhadjavi @arithecfo @runneth yep love @arithecfo

[Anish Acharya @illscience]

Comparative advantage, i.e., how agents discover / hire / diligence / pay other agents, is going to be a critical concept in this new world.

- What are the “specialized” agents that will need different training / prompting / personality / capabilities that Muse doesn’t want to build?
- Are there agents that can own and be paid for liability when taking risky actions?
- Are there “luxury” agents that increase social capital?
- You may want a neurotic agent for finance work and a creative agent for party planning, so even aside from intelligence / capabilities, specialization is needed to reconcile different “personalities.” What will be the key archetypes?
- Will be is it more profitable to own an agent that executes known transactions or drives discovery through taste and personalization?

we're opening muse connectors to developers!

we have seen so much excitement in the developer community, integrating muse into everything from robots to mood lights and more.

plug your API into muse, then people can use your service just by asking for it. every request runs in a secure VM, and muse will ask before anything consequential.

come build with us! https://t.co/3FkYtAoq6l

@nichochar Very smart idea. You should build it!!

@jasonfreedman @liveink 😂🤣

@ColinGardiner Yeah, subsidization is a massive structural advantage. By the time the costs sufficiently deflate a lot of the large horizontal winners may already be established.

@TobennaA Grokbot?

@DavidPawlan 💯

[Anish Acharya @illscience]

It’s probably both, but my wife & her friends strongly prefer it which led me down the rabbit hole… for any outside of core AI I think prompt paralysis / knowing what to ask for a real barrier to adoption

With that said iMessage is clever and solves for this in different ways..

[Anish Acharya @illscience]

@Maybejoshb Yeah, I think people want different personalities in their life, which is why we’ll probably be living in a multi-agent world.. there is no one friend, coworker, or coach to rule them all..

[Anish Acharya @illscience]

@ColinGardiner Regardless I think it’s representative of a real preference, at least in my empirical conversations with friends and family outside of tech / more Insta-oriented.

[Anish Acharya @illscience]

@thatguybg Smart

What interface do you prefer? iMessage or app? Or something else?

[Anish Acharya @illscience]

@thatguybg lol I knew someone would catch this - here is the original, I used chatGPT to remove the dangling captioned “you”

[Anish Acharya @illscience]

@liveink 10000% .. they will have their own preferences, incentives and idiosyncrasies that will be totally distinct from ours ..

Instinct 🤝 Muse

1/ I introduced my @Muse agent to my Instinct agent and they now directly partner on tasks and projects for me.

Two hours in: 4,700 leads harvested and validated, zero duplicated work, and a work contract they wrote themselves.
