Thanks for building in public Lukas.

Been to the store, crazy experience

One of the most fascinating AI experiments so far.

Not sure about this:

> John and Jill are not at risk. This is a controlled experiment and everyone working at Andon Market is formally employed by Andon Labs, with guaranteed pay, fair wages, and full legal protections. No one’s livelihood depends on an AI’s judgment alone.

Did they give Luna the power to hire but not fire?

Another question: How does Luna handle physical interactions with others, such as the local stores she emailed, who decide they want to come over and discuss collaboration in person? Do the employees have a laptop set up that others would interact with?

Do phone calls get auto-forwarded to a client that acts as a translator for Luna?

is sucks to be John and Jill

There is a word for this kind of thing: Trendslop. Asking LLMs for advice consistently generates average responses as if the questions were being asked of the training sample population. It is reversion to the mean as a service.

Larp hat, larp shirt.

Disgusting, I could not finish writing after the AI making interviews to hire people. What a dehumanizing shit.

A bit of a non sequitur, but am I the only one finding the use of "she" to refer to the AI in the post jarring?

So the future is basically people asking (praying) to AI to make them money.

> We’re doing this because we believe this future is coming regardless, and we’d rather be the ones running it first while monitoring every interaction

But why would I, as a human, wish to "interact" with AI, aka software?

That's just a waste of time. How much profit did Luna make in the end?
