Steve Troughton-SmithI'm pretty convinced now that in the near future you'll be able to deploy an entire 'company in a box' of AI agents, with the equivalent to domain experts in programming, design, sound design and music, marketing, and more, that will feasibly compete with the average startup. The OpenClaw cultists^Wfans will tell you they're already doing this, today, on Mac minis. If you think this is hyperbole or kool-aid pyramid-scheme nonsense, I suspect you're not even remotely prepared for what's to come
Frank O'Dwyer@stroughtonsmith why stop there? You could imagine deploying “incubator in a box”, give it some money, and have it deploy a fleet of startups with agentic CEOs and product managers and so on, with only the prompt “make number go up!”
(Not sure which effect is supposed to win out though - all those startups should in theory eat tokens while having about ~0 value individually, as they would probably be competing with zillions of other similar automated enshittifiers? 😂 )
