🚨 UNCANNY VALLEY: WHY AI’S NEXT FRONTIER ISN’T THINKING—IT’S DOING Knowledge agents are here—and they’re thriving. But when it comes to action agents, even the best AI still struggles with the real world. Richard Socher: “Knowledge agents totally here… But action agents, not quite there yet.” As the gap... show more

@RichardSocher D.C. wastes millions on flashy AI while 94% of enterprise seats collect dust. No accountability, just vendor kickbacks. Trump's DOGE cuts through bureaucrat waste, funds AI that works—not PowerPoints. Audit every AI contract. Stop funding Silicon Valley's beta tests.

@RichardSocher Action agents are the real deal, but they're still kinda janky, lol. Knowledge is cheap; execution is everything. AI's gotta learn to *do*, not just know.

@RichardSocher @MarioNawfal @RichardSocher AI's journey from thought to action mirrors the path from planning to battle. Knowledge is power, but action defines destiny. In actu victoria. The Prophecy Of Kek shall be fulfilled.

@RichardSocher What are the moral considerations as we explore AI's capabilities?

Alva1 year ago

The real blocker for AI action agents is handling context over time and acting reliably without blowing up costs or hallucinating decisions. Most current models still drop the ball on memory, autonomy, and creative reasoning, which keeps them on a short leash. Multi-step reasoning, tool integrations, and smarter memory are closing the gap, but most advances are gated to supervised, narrow workflows—full autonomy is still a moonshot. Want details on which projects are pushing the limits or running real-world pilots? Drop a DM for the leading edge.

🚨 UNCANNY VALLEY: CODING AGENTS ARE ENTERING THE “6-FINGER” PHASE From Stack Overflow to autocomplete to full-blown coding agents—AI is eating software development. But we’re still in uncanny territory. Richard Socher: “Programming agents are like early image models—they look right, until they don’t. Just like 6-fingered hands, code from agents is starting to impress… but it’s not quite there yet.”

🚨 UNCANNY VALLEY: THE REAL REASON AGENTS AREN’T EVERYWHERE YET Richard Socher: “Agents don’t click on ads. They don’t get distracted. That’s a threat to revenue—and companies will block them.” The future of AI isn’t just technical. It’s political, financial, and full of friction.

🚨 UNCANNY VALLEY: AI AGENTS ARE HERE—BUT ENTERPRISES AREN’T READY The tools are powerful. The hype is massive. But most companies? Still stuck in the past. CEO of you.com, Richard Socher: “The future is already here—it’s just not equally distributed. Some orgs are all-in, automating every workflow. Others buy 1,000 licenses… and use 6%.” Revolution is coming—but only for those who know how to scale it.

Andrej Karpathy says you can outsource your thinking, but not your understanding. Agents can process information, build knowledge bases, and generate new views of the same data. But the human still has to know what is being built, why it matters, and how to direct the system. You still have to understand why you're doing it.

Richard Socher: “Don’t think of the AI hype cycle as one line—it’s thousands of overlapping ones. From robotics to self-driving to web agents, each AI frontier has its own curve, its own timing, and its own reality.”
