The future of the world’s economy and defenses will be based on SWARMS
Those who can organize and direct swarms of agents controlling intelligence and swarms of physical machines will be unlike any power we’ve seen in history

No matter how tired or sleep deprived I am, I ALWAYS feel better after a gym session
Even if I don’t want to gym, I just put on the right tunes and start moving, next thing I know I’m tossing weights around like normal

The productivity jump from personal agents come from giving it the keys to everything
It's the same thing you'd eventually give a great human assistant, once there's history and trust: your passwords, your calendar, the keys to the house
Most people stop short of this and are then underwhelmed with what agents can do
Reminds me of when people in the early dotcom era were afraid to buy online with a credit card
Curious where people draw the line with sharing info with agents?
What have you actually handed over, and what won't you?

To be relevant in the AI/SI era, companies need two things:
1. Shared context layer
2. Agent control plane
Once those are in place, everything builds and compounds on top
Just don’t get locked into a vendor that owns and controls all of it

152 days
That's the gap between the Hermes Agent launch and the Grok Bot launch
In the 60 days since we got: Instinct, Muse, Dots, Hark, Fo, and more
Most of them are hard to tell apart
So this isn't a product race anymore, it's a distribution race, and the biggest digital land grab since the browser
The prize is the surface billions of people will talk to every day and the ability to monetize that in so many ways
Who wins it?

Since joining @codos_ai I’ve talked with dozens of enterprises about AI
Some ramblings from these convos:
> most still view AI as a productivity tool and think incrementally (10-20% ish boost) rather than in reinvention terms and orders of magnitude improvement
Partial explanation is that most are not exposed to the frontier so they don’t see what many of us see, their view is based on the reality of their world vs the reality being shaped at the frontier
The other part is it’s hard to think in OOM terms when you’re in the weeds, it all sounds so unrealistic, and that’s an exposure that AI nat

Over the past few weeks I’ve interviewed around a dozen FDE candidates for @codos_ai
What makes a good FDE is basically a good builder who I can put in front of a client
Plenty of the former, but very few of the latter

Once we all have agents doing work on our behalf, how do you know if your agent represents you well?
How do you know if it is:
> a killer negotiator
> a good problem solver
> a cracked operator
> or just too nice, or maybe a complete asshole dealing with ppl
Can your agent out-negotiate my agent?
Can your agent pull a fast one on my agent?
Sunday morning musings

Are people really losing money on purpose in order to get a new token in hopes that the new token ends up being worth more than the real money they started with?

I just spent $1,000 this morning at Costco and Walmart on everyday things for a family of 4
That’ll last us about 2-3 weeks tops

My timeline is saying data brokers are making crazy numbers like $2M a week selling to labs
Maybe some are, gg to them, but it's a short window
Labs only need so much internal company slop before the next batch stops moving the model
The durable data is something almost nobody is collecting: how agents behave in the wild
> agent-to-agent negotiation
> adversarial conflict
> high-pressure decisions with no deterministic answer
RL companies are building environments for deterministic worlds we already understand
I don’t see anyone building them for millions of agents interacting across the inter

Competitive advantage comes from everything you can’t buy off the shelf
So in the age of AI (err SI), that means it’s your company’s data and how you turn that into context for humans and agents to use - this is how you develop edge

If you’re a company and still “pre-context” you’re not going to be able to keep up
Sorry to be blunt, I don’t make the rules

I resisted connecting an agent to my email for a long time
But having it read and draft (not send) is a game changer for routine interactions
It’s now so good at drafting after learning my style I usually just press send

I've been really enjoying @boardyai lately, it's one of the few products that I feel can actually create real opportunities for our business via mutual introductions
So far it's found some good candidates for open roles at @codos_ai and a few interesting BD leads
