Garry Tan Predicts AI Agents Will Power Next Generation of Innovators

* Basically gbrain users https://github.com/garrytan/gbrain

@garrytan But at the same time they have to be able to retain the capability to think by themselves.

Agent have become an easy excuse to offload cognitive load and be "lazy"

true innovation (at least right now) still comes from human minds and not AI

@garrytan building trading bots taught me this fast.

the easy part: write the strategy. the brutal part: keep it running 24/7 across 10 exchanges without breaking.

that's the skill nobody teaches.

@10xerik @garrytan It has nothing to do with being lazy. Creating those workflows is definitely the opposite

@garrytan yeah

Exposure and learned behavior is an important reason as to why I do what I do. My children are often sitting with me asking questions and going out to make their own version of what I explained to them. They are my real agents. And when they're older and more mature they will have a skillset that translates into the future.

@garrytan Spot on! GBrain + Any Agent + Evals. Loop it.

@garrytan Good at optimising the tokens in short

@garrytan the problem space enables you to figure out how to use compute to increase output, if you can scaffold this into existence then you will out-accelerate your competitors, much easier said then put into practice though

@garrytan @ycombinator the standard for us all

@garrytan The opposite It would be to those who think different away from the AI probability vicious cycle

@garrytan A single dose of psilocybin mushrooms can cure alcoholism. The issue is they're illegal so you have to buy them from some shady guy in an alleyway, but if we legalize it you can get it from Walgreens & then your wife won't want to fuck you anymore cuz you don't drink

@garrytan Facts

@garrytan Most people meet the market after the story is already clean. Occlusion enhances your decision making. It pulls old sources, current signals, public discussion and ground-level evidence into one source trail so you can see what the market may be starting to believe.

@garrytan been building claude code plugins for a few months and this is exactly the gap. orchestrating multi-step agent tasks is way harder than any single model capability

@Ferbin08 @garrytan thats where im going next thank you for confirming my fears

@garrytan agents without coordination infra is just outsourced bullshit same old story

@garrytan @garrytan Building reliable multi-team agent systems requires moving past basic prompting into sophisticated orchestration. The true differentiator will be the ability to manage state and observability across long-running asynchronous workflows to ensure consistency at scale.

@garrytan Can old people change the world too?

@garrytan Now working hard to build this kinda stuff
