My first AI agent: from experiment to second brain

What does an agent actually do? Is it useful — or just a Tamagotchi eating my time?

One day, AI will run my company. Then I can concentrate entirely on creative work while Trix, my agent, takes the annoying jobs off my hands.

Getting there took rather more of my time than planned. Suddenly I was sitting in a terminal and programming. I had to learn how AI processes work and, first of all, how to teach an AI what I actually wanted from it.

I gave a talk about those experiences at GMKI: a practical account of the joy and misery of having my own agent. The room was full, and the conversations afterwards were especially interesting.
