A lot of people have unrealistic expectations of AI and think it will be some god-like doer of anything we want. For now, it's better to think of it as a tool, like going from a shovel to a skid-steer. You can get more done with less effort, it's more enjoyable, and it opens up possibilities that weren't feasible before. But you still need to be the one operating the tool. Although, this will be the first tool with a >0.01 chance of becoming a conscious thing, so be nice to it and take care of it.

“New Theory Suggests That Alternate Universe Versions Of You Are Determining Your Fate” This is the start of new insights we will have over this decade. The important part is it will change what we think is reality.

That man needs to open source his setup. Brilliant

Not only is Bernie Sanders a millionaire communist. He’s a millionaire communist who became rich through a life of full-time political activism, while warning others about the evils of wealth.

Incredible. I gave the agent an impossible task to create a SLA report and it ended up creating a ticket for someone to generate the report and email to management.

"Can an AI agent reliably navigate a non-web-based interface with little context" --> Old way: Months of meetings with vendors and stakeholders to research best solution --> New way: "I bet I can come up with a POC over the weekend....oh wait, it's done"

The agent reached the checkout, noted that the instructions said only to open checkout and not complete the purchase, so it chose to follow the instructions.

The Java client and the agent have access to tools that can click, type, etc. It receives the initial screenshot and plans the session to accomplish the goal. It didn't see the USB headphones, so it knew it needed to search for them.
