@defyneric @Kadar1 Very soon moving biz ops to you guys!

[GS @sheynk]

@Kadar1 @defyneric 1000000% - this is what we are building 👀

[GS @sheynk]

This is why @SuperhumanMail is the best. I flag that my agents read Google Workspaces but need to draft thru Superhuman MCP which is not ideal and needs to be pre-promoted in projects.

A few weeks later they ship a fix and follow up with me.

@SuperhumanMail desktop speaking app for Mac? 👀

[Trev🙃r is hiring DM me! @whatdotcd]

Underappreciated that a generation speed ran every finance game and can now pattern match against all the tradfi shenanigans

[CoinMarketCap @CoinMarketCap]

LATEST: 🇦🇪 Tether has backed Abu Dhabi tokenization firm KAIO in an $8M round to bring institutional funds onchain, with plans to launch a fund with Mubadala Capital.

@RyanSAdams This is why @convosmessenger implementation is so awesome

Private agents right in the chat!

[GS @sheynk]

@Teknium Has someone spun up a 1 click managed instance service yet?

[GS @sheynk]

@NousResearch are there any "one click" hosting services for Hermes that you guys recommend?

[GS @sheynk]

Different vendors (vIBAN vs card issuer vs onramp) and coverage. Solving this by only doing kyc once and managing all the downstream dependencies per region is a massive integration pain (we’ve been at it for a minute - releasing something fun soon - works with Solana nicely)

I thought it would be a lot easier than it ended up being 🫠🤣😬

[GS @sheynk]

@chapello US only still?

[GS @sheynk]

@ProtonPrivacy Anything on @xmtp_ 🖖

[GS @sheynk]

@CardilloSamuel That’s funny cause I found out what RTFKT was thru you after investing in @sbreakintl

🤷🤣

[GS @sheynk]

As always, @yarotrof with beautiful and timely words.

Dubai is more than a collection of skyscrapers and malls: It’s a place where people from all over the world have come to build new lives, writes WSJ's Yaroslav Trofimov. https://t.co/DgCE7SB7mU

Listen to Anthony Pompliano and our CEO, Henson Orser discuss institutional requirements and the need for insurance at Bitcoin Investor Week last year.

[The Tie @TheTieIO]

"What's the difference between a narrative and a real category?"

That was the question driving our first panel at InnovateDenver.

@coltonfconley (@Arrington_Cap) led @Jennasis (@coinfund), @sheynk (@further), @AlpenSheth (@borderless_cap), and @Ray_scale (@Grayscale)through a conversation on building discipline in an industry that rewards chaos.

Capital allocation, hiring, roadmap focus. The stuff that compounds.

I'm being accused of overhyping the [site everyone heard too much about today already]. People's reactions varied very widely, from "how is this interesting at all" all the way to "it's so over".

To add a few words beyond just memes in jest - obviously when you take a look at the activity, it's a lot of garbage - spams, scams, slop, the crypto people, highly concerning privacy/security prompt injection attacks wild west, and a lot of it is explicitly prompted and fake posts/comments designed to convert attention into ad revenue sharing. And this is clearly not the first the LLMs were put in a loop to talk to each other. So yes it's a dumpster fire and I also definitely do not recommend that people run this stuff on their computers (I ran mine in an isolated computing environment and even then I was scared), it's way too much of a wild west and you are putting your computer and private data at a high risk.

That said - we have never seen this many LLM agents (150,000 atm!) wired up via a global, persistent, agent-first scratchpad. Each of these agents is fairly individually quite capable now, they have their own unique context, data, knowledge, tools, instructions, and the network of all that at this scale is simply unprecedented.

This brings me again to a tweet from a few days ago
"The majority of the ruff ruff is people who look at the current point and people who look at the current slope.", which imo again gets to the heart of the variance. Yes clearly it's a dumpster fire right now. But it's also true that we are well into uncharted territory with bleeding edge automations that we barely even understand individually, let alone a network there of reaching in numbers possibly into ~millions. With increasing capability and increasing proliferation, the second order effects of agent networks that share scratchpads are very difficult to anticipate. I don't really know that we are getting a coordinated "skynet" (thought it clearly type checks as early stages of a lot of AI takeoff scifi, the toddler version), but certainly what we are getting is a complete mess of a computer security nightmare at scale. We may also see all kinds of weird activity, e.g. viruses of text that spread across agents, a lot more gain of function on jailbreaks, weird attractor states, highly correlated botnet-like activity, delusions/ psychosis both agent and human, etc. It's very hard to tell, the experiment is running live.

TLDR sure maybe I am "overhyping" what you see today, but I am not overhyping large networks of autonomous LLM agents in principle, that I'm pretty sure.
