While I don't like the blog title, many things said in there rang true for my company (MoveAI.com). We are building an AI-powered moving concierge that can orchestrate your relocation experience end-to-end.
We initially were developing a system that we had hoped could handle everything and eject any workflow issues to a human so the operations team could kick the machine. We were hoping to avoid an interface all together on the customer side.
After a few versions and attempts at building this system, we moved towards a traditional app where we focused on building a product people wanted and automate parts of it over time. But even the parts we automated needed an interface for customers to spot check our work. So we found a great designer.
...Before we knew it, we were building a traditional company, with some AI. The company is doing well and people love what we're building, but it's different than we imagined.
We still believe in the long term vision and promise of the technology, but the article is right, this isn't going to be an overnight process unless some new architecture emerges.
In the mean time, we're focused on helping people get from A to B easily using whatever means necessary, because moving f**ing sucks. If you're moving soon or know anybody who is, we'd be happy to help them. -P
Cool to see my hometown finally pulling in tech. Feel like Amazon coming to town and the VT investing in CS grads in the area is going to pay dividends long term.
Move AI automates the moving process. You have a busy life. ...and now that life needs to be somewhere else. Talk to us for 30 minutes and we'll handle everything for you, down to the smallest detail.
We are building a mobile app with a web-based admin backend. We use AI (vision & LLM's) to solve several time-consuming problems and to ensure a magical experience.

Human consumption of a naturally occurring mushroom (food) that happens to contain psilocybin is absolutely a natural occurrence and as a result has a history of human consumption older than wine.

Same could be said about death cap mushrooms. Something being natural or even being occasionally ingested doesn't make it any better. Natural, occasionally ingested organisms can kill you on the spot.
You have canine teeth for eating meat instead of tree fruits. Your body can also extract nutrients from this fungus versus merely passing it like if you ate some wood or something else entirely non-nutritious. You might be one of those people who are able to process lactose effectively. None of these things are unnatural to our species if we have natural mutations in our population that confer these adaptions.
Happy to discuss my strategies over a 15 min call if you’re up for it. I’ve gotten decently good at figuring out what to look for when evaluating them.
I was there. Paying off student loans like a mf’er doesn’t leave a lot left over. Now I have no loans so it’s easier to save, however when you’re in a hole, the best thing to do is fill the hole.
Sure. He can also bash me over the head with a big rock, or spray me with bear hormones and dump me in the woods. Like everything else in our society, we balance potentials with exigency, immediacy, and scale. A gun trumps a knife in all of these regards.
The gun owner is the fearful person. Not owning a gun in this country requires bravery considering our neighbors may be armed to the teeth. This comment takes no side in the issue of the leak. Just stating the fact that many purchase guns out of fear for their own safety.
These are all examples. You can do some cursory background on me and determine that I don't live in California, and that my neighbors are extremely unlikely to own guns.
