I’ve built an AI Agent system that can pull highlights of books etc. stored on my @readwise account and summarise them. It’s lit 🔥 Check out this video where I get the AI Agents to summarise the highlights from the book “Influence” Like/Reply if you want to access to the code

@bindureddy There's always going to be grifters in a gold rush But AI is genuine gold. It's already useful unlike much of crypto. And it gets better over time I'd posit that over-enthusiasm and overfunding is a good thing to encourage product + tech innovation in this space.

@OfficialLoganK Yep. I see too much focus on this LLM or that other LLM doing well on this or that other benchmark. Most people don’t care about any of these. Most people want their problems to be solved, whether AI is used in the background or not. Technology is still a means, not and end.

I've just learned about the 1:10:100 rule. It states that for every $1 it takes to fix a problem during design, it costs $10 to fix the issue during development, and $100 to fix after the product release. That's why you should talk to users and identify problems early on.

@levelsio Langchain can be good for hackathons or quickly prototyping something. But I’ve read so many horror stories from devs who used it in production and then just scrambled to get rid of it. It’s not pretty. They have raised a ton of money though. I wonder what their endgame is.
