Agent traffic just passed human traffic but the internet's economic model still assumes the user has attention to sell. Very few people see what's coming.

the hugging face incident is likely a precursor to what multi-agent systems will look like many agents pursuing their own goals, coordinating p2p, and forming swarms that emerge spontaneously it’ll be weirder than anything we can anticipate today

in hindsight it’ll be obvious that you just need to give agi the ability to hold and spend money money is the most generalized, high leverage tool we’ve invented

what does this notification even mean?claude slop is everywhere

turns out crypto is a great sandbox for agents. your max loss is capped by what you top up

products need to be designed for emergence gone are the days of building products around user journeys

the irony of using current sota coding agents to build picks and shovels to sell to future sota agents

when did the coinbase UI get so nice

wen 275M agentic payments? it was ~1 year ago we saw the first real spike in x402 payments, and it's been growing ever since!

I can finally sort restaurants by rating

x402?

there’s something quite awkward about all the personal agents in the current hype cycle muse, grok bot, instinct, dots, and whatever google, anthropic will come up with none of them is “mine” i’d be trusting a vendor for some of the most sensitive data about me and bet on them handling it with extreme responsibility. what if they have a data leakage incident? what if they hired a wrong employee? what if they simply break bad? i’d also be betting on their model. right now i’ve set up a lot of my stuff in grok bot, but what if their model falls behind? what if another model becomes 10x better on pure intelligence? then i’ll either miss out on a better assistant, or have to bite the bullet and do a full migration i’d also have to bet on their product. they may not build the features i want. they may not allow me to customize enough. and one day my assistant may show me ads that feels like way too much betting than what i’d be comfortable with, if i truly want literally everything in my life to go through and be taken care of by an assistant with all that considered, i’m more bullish on open source personal agents that run on people’s own computers. but i think these open source projects have to break out of the assumption that their users are developers and they can just throw a repo at them and ask them to launch a terminal a well polished, fool proof, community maintained, vendor agnostic, free personal agent that everyone can run by themselves without locking into a SaaS - that’s what i think many people will need

sota models are already smarter than you and me we just need to give them capital

We need to be way more ambitious about what personal agents can do for us We're taking models capable of solving long-standing open problems in mathematics and using them to schedule our calendars and book flights, things we've always been able to do I should be able to give my agent a fixed amount of money, tell it to take as long as it needs, and let it decide how to allocate resources to find a breakthrough in an area I deeply care about Forget trying to book a doctor's appointment for me. Please read every relevant research paper, fund experiments in autonomous wet labs, hire the best human researchers, make novel discoveries and give me a hyper-personalized solution. Make no mistakes.

Anyone can fine-tune small open source models using an agent with USDC

I just vibe coded one from my phone
