I had no idea. Was most of his work before or after these tragedies. Hope he had a peaceful death himself financially not in turmoil.
I hope most of the pain and death we see in the world today seem like solved problems many years from now. Much like the health issues faced by his family.
Spent 10 mins on the website, all the examples are single agent examples. There is 0 value add for yet another wrapper on an openai call, parading as an agent.
The whole point of agents is knowing what to do among potentially 100's of intents and actions.
Why don't you wait it out. You can't gain much going against the org, they have all the leverage and there typically are enough terms to allow the startup to even take them from you citing x,y,z. Just wait it out - it's just a question of a few months. As for the tax piece, if you think there will be enough upside - make the demanded payment. Think logically minus the emotions.
I think you can build another package on top of this that reduces prompt/messages length or filters based on in-memory vector search or your matching algo. This would be advertised as - "make sure your prompts don't go over ___", or reduce your prompt input tokens by __ based on the last message ny tbe user.
Nice work! Definitely going to use it at a hackathon. There are css frameworks that do this, but this really went super deep with keyboard and interaction and components.
I took 3 months off, joined antlers entrepreneur residency program for 3 months (the first batch in India, they do this in the almost 100 cities globally too).
The odds of creating teams among 70 founders, freezing on an idea, pitching and getting an investment from their IC is only 5%. This contrasts with YC where everyone gets an investment on day 1. But Antler isn't meant for those who have that clarity. Yet. You just want to startup. They interview you, giving you 2-3 months to figure it out.
They also have a small stipend during this time.
Although I personally pitched with a team and didn't get an investment and decided to join the workforce again - there are many who continued with their team and bootstrapped post that or raised many quarters later.
Regardless of how many founders eventually raise at the end of the cohort (15 teams formed from 70 founders, 3-5 teams on avg clear IC for $250k investment), Antler raises capital from their LP's 100% of the time, backed up by the logos of the employment of the founders, and potential opportunity. I felt conflicted by this initially. But it's a net win for the ecosystem. They get to fund more winners longer,and aren't obliged to fund every team for various reasons and have a high bar at the IC that is a reality check for many first time founders.
Much like cohorts, the bond from staying in close proximity with that many folks also leads to a lifelong network that is still super tight 3 years post.
