Fake it until you make it (and by make it I mean | that GPT-5 is released and automatically eases all the | bottlenecks via just being a lot smarter) | artex_xh wrote: | agree. i do believe authors of those experimental projects do | not intent to create such buzz, it is just too many | shitinfluencers pushing the projects in that way. | simplify wrote: | > As we celebrate Auto-GPT's rapid ascent, it's crucial to take a | step back and scrutinize its potential shortcomings. | | Why is it crucial? This project has existed for barely a month, | and describes itself as an experiment. Who is using this for | production? | themodelplumber wrote: | > Who is using this for production? | | Uhhh? Are you serious? It's used for production all over the | place, for a pretty reasonable definition of production. | | "There is nothing so practical as a good theory." - Kurt Lewin | artex_xh wrote: | there are couple of efforts on making autogpt project into more | professional service: - https://www.cognosys.ai/ - | https://agentgpt.reworkd.ai/ | | tho dont see anyone building paywall yet | tobyjsullivan wrote: | Exactly this.
