@dexhorthy maybe we should see harnesses the same way we see UIs. llms as users, getting better outcomes from one interface than another.

TypeScript people - I have a question:
What's the best (least bad, most trendy) Agent Framework right now?
Vercel AI, Mastra, Langpain-js - any other popular options?
I mean for general applications (e.g. not coding agents).
Do you even use a framework, or pretend you don't need one and let the coding agent one-shot a slop micro-framework each time?

@raphaelschaad @ycombinator why wouldn’t these companies navigate NATO’s procurement?

MIT student asked a question earlier today that a lot of young founders are quietly wondering about:
"Won’t the frontier labs just do everything?"
Yes it's true that OAI/Ant are shipping at incredible pace, but it's quite easy to avoid their blast radius and build amazing startups:
OpenAI is not going to build a cattle-herding drone, buy an old F-150 and drive from ranch to ranch like the founder of one of the fastest-growing YC W26 startups, Graze Mate.
Anthropic is not going to integrate with dental insurance verification systems (Lance).
Google is not going to navigate NATO procurement (Milliray).
The value is in the last mile, not the model. Sales cycles require humans who understand the customer. And most importantly, the market is expanding, not shrinking: AI isn't cannibalizing the existing 1% software spend — it's unlocking the other 5-6% that was going to humans. That's a much bigger market for startups yet-to-be-founded than the one the labs are playing in.
Now, what DOES seem risky?
A thin UI layer on top of ChatGPT with no domain expertise; a general-purpose chatbot or assistant; or a product that gets obsolete when model capabilities improve.
But — tools for specific industries; "full-stack" AI companies that actually are the service (AI law firm, AI accounting firm, AI uranium exploration company); or generally products where the customer doesn't want a tool but an outcome — are defensible ideas for startups.

Yesterday's @ycombinator post from @t_blom (who I used to work for at @monzo) about the "company brain" didn't surprise me. We started @housecatinc last year, and are seeing something magical happen when you give agents access to your data and a computer they control.

@swyx probably talking about different things. "code isn't cheap" when it lacks units of trust. "code is cheap" when it has units of trust. x.com/unclebobmartin…
