Probably more business suit guys talking about stuff they don’t understand. They probably imagine “AI” as some unlimited resource that they can command any amount of tasks from, but the scale they are fantasizing about doesn’t seem realistic to me
Yeah it’s Y Combinator. It’s probably from a young and dynamic entrepreneur who has already revolutionized the javascript landscape by introducing and accelerating a completely new and revolutionary package to deal with emojis at scale (and Knuckles). They definitely know about compitars.
Outlit’s goal is to amass as much real-time information about a company’s clients as possible. According to Earle, agents trawl internal records like call logs and sales data as well as external information like social media posts and the websites of people’s employers; they then compile that data into detailed customer profiles, often complete with “actionables” like outreach recommendations and sales guidance. Outlit argues this level of insight will help companies prevent “churn” — business jargon for lost customers — or find opportunities to upsell.
Isn’t new or novel in any way. Our sales team at the company I work for has a bespoke version of this. The model pulls in information from previous customer interactions, scours LinkedIn and the web and larger industry trends, and gives them a profile. There’s no benefit to having some long running agent that constantly watches someone’s online activity when you can ingest the log when it’s actionable.
They’re grifters who will grift people with no idea how this stuff works, they’ll get a valuation of x number of millions with some CLAUDE.md files omarchy style, then salesforce will eat them for their valuation and they go on to grift some more
