Y Combinator startup will pay humans to help AI agents when they get stuck. (This is what I read today.)
At the same time, I see how Indian employees in production have cameras on their heads, and the AI learns from their movements (practically filming their firing process).
In addition, there was already a site where AI agents hired human actions for stablecoins.
First, AI worked for us.
Now we are starting to work for AI.
And eventually, will AI work (without us)?
I don t want to portray a Terminator scenario where people will have to unite against AI, but what future awaits us in terms of cooperation/non-cooperation with AI?
AI has undoubtedly made our work easier and faster.
An article that would have taken me several days before (defining the topic, doing research, interviewing experts for unique insights, validating data, and writing the final piece) can now be turned into a solid article in under two hours. (in my case, when I publish a weekly newsletter)
Sometimes I have a problem to have a look at my past milestones or things I have achieved so far. When I think about it, even creating my first product was a success for me. I ve always been a bit shy and afraid to show what I was working on, or I just didn t know how to present it properly, so it took me a really long time.
My first product was an online workout program with a payment gateway, and the monthly price was ridiculously low. But I managed to monetise it and had my first customers. I was probably around 20 at the time.
What was your first product?
What would you do differently to maintain it and make it successful?
Do you spend 3 hours trying to find a clever .com before writing a single line of code? Or do you ship the MVP and slap on whatever domain wasn t taken at the time?
Mine once created a reminder for a meeting that didn't exist, then flagged it three days in a row. I only caught it because I kept trying to remember who I was supposed to be meeting.
The interesting part is I still use it for the same task; I've just learned which of its confident moves to double-check. It feels a bit like working with a sharp new hire who's still finding their footing.
When did you first notice your AI agent needed a second look, and did you stop using it or just build a workaround like I did?
