Marketers Start with Packaging. Engineers Start with Foundations.
Marketers start with the packaging. Engineers start with the foundations. Both groups have influenced me strongly, so I often find myself torn somewhere in between.
When building AI, does one have to be dead serious? Character may not be a key trait of an AI agent, but it’s definitely worth considering.
At the start of the AI race, reflexes mattered most—character.ai quickly built a solution that’s a cool gadget. The personality of the agent, which you can choose, is just an addition. But it’s a pretty enjoyable one.
For months, the Firstscore AI platform was only accessible through a console, hidden from the uninitiated. Recently, however, thanks to amazing advisors, developers (some of them are truly humans, not just AI 😉), libraries, and a few good films, the platform is undergoing a transformation.
And that’s a good thing.
