@lejeunesimon FYI I’m an AI eng at Coinbase. I spoke to your account executive about my accounts today and gave some great product feedback today for 30 min.
The app should allow users to customize their what balance shows up in the home, save, invest screens. I would like to omit key non registered accounts from my total balance both for privacy reasons since if you click the ‘hide balances’ button it also hides my chequing and credit card balances. Also many people try to keep their life savings and spending money separate to not make themselves feel too rich as they spend money. Would love this prioritized if possible since it would be useful for all Canadians for their banking.
Coinbase is testing AI agents that show up in slack/email at work, just like any human teammate. To start we're shipping two which are modeled after legendary former Coinbase employees, @FEhrsam and @balajis. (Who brutally frame mogged who in this matchup?)
Soon, it will be easy for any employee to spin up a new agent for themselves or their team. I suspect we will have more agents than human employees at some point soon.
"It's called Superwhisper. I haven't touched my keyboard in months, I just talk and my computer listens, I'm dictating emails, talking to AI agents, vibe coding, everything. I have transcended typing and have become a productivity maxxer"

This is experimental and not financial advice ��� we intend to learn and iterate from user feedback to build the best agentic trading infra. US only (ex-NY).
Here is a sped up demo for you. Check out @MurrLincoln’s post https://t.co/sEY3DsMREg for the full walk through.

I think "prompting" will keep being an incredibly high-leverage skill, like writing or public speaking.
It is the skill of talking to agents, mediated by the harness.
My main goal is to grow the bandwidth between humans and agents, to help us understand each other better.

The key point folks replying are missing here is talent density. All metrics are rigged no matter what. For good engineers, token spend —because it’s calibrated to a good engineer — is a good metric for how much AI has made them more productive and parallelized their shipping ability. Of course, yes: don’t ship bugs, delete code, etc. build only good stuff!
I disagree tbh. Engineering input effort is 1:1 to output unlike Marketing, so token spend proxies shipping!
Unlike Marketing who has to sell to their customers, Developers don’t need to convince their computer to run their code lol.
Especially with high talent density, more token spend = building more, faster, and better quality.
I ack drawbacks of shipping too much/fast (wrong things/bugs) but that predates AI.
@yugacohler@CoinbaseDev Awesome, I need this for something we're shipping very soon 👀 I'm using the CDP API myself on the @coinbase Next Bets team, and this would make our testing faster via Claude
Crypto is so boring right now.
AI agents literally transacting with crypto rails.
Major financial institutions tokenizing everything.
Stablecoins with more adoption & interest than ever.
I could go on, but meh, so boring.
There's a difference in encouraging folks to use AI with good incentives vs. outright teaching that building a script to burn tokens is how to be "good at AI".
