Marketing bullshit aside, this is just bots in chat rooms, right? Am I the crazy one?

I think you're crazy. It's not just bots in chat rooms, it's bots in chat room with an AI Investor Hype Money™

Kind of amazing that given the state of the world money is still focused on remixes of different forms of social engagement. Is this because it's an obvious place to display ads? Or is it something else?

I'd like to think if I were JD that I would be focusing on something a bit more tangible for the world. A more useful aspect of tech to emerge or be invested in.

But, apparently AI agents in chat that sit adjacent to code is The Next Big Thing?

The only playbook big tech in the US seems to have are creating a platform and trying to extract rents off it.

Are you implying that a tech billionaire, who moved to a private South American compound, who looks like a man that microdoses ayahuasca daily, might just a rich kid tinkering to stay relevant without the incentive or context to actually BE relevant anymore?

yeah, but the reality is that every chat room bot integration is half-assed, and the good integrations force you to use chat rooms/services that are either a nuissance to spin up and join, heavily opinionated, or lack features, or even the most basic security and privacy stances.

there's definitely room for someone to do it right.

i'm skeptical if it'll be dorsey, however.

Will someone please get these bots some NFTs

I thought they were the ones that are supposed to be making them for me, and to make that digital coinage for me via the ai autonomous business proxy

b-b-but it has a github stapled onto it!
