Because traditional payment rails live and die with real human identities. How does this work with agent identities in the future when they run autonomously? Will start from the margins (teenagers setting up agents without their own bank accounts and people without access to global currencies) and spread to the mainstream. Plus other benefits like fees and micropayments etc.

I don't understand the premise that "agents must use stablecoins."
Why can't an agent remember the 16 digits of a credit card?
Sorry maybe I'm a payments n00b. Stablecoins have a lot of great use cases, but ecommerce shopping is pretty well optimized already for cards.

@odysseus0z why do you prefer managed claude over raw dogging agent sdk?
English
Okay the managed claude team feels like more reasonable people. They actually use structured event log, which is what happens in runtime, for persistence, instead of an entirely separate thing in Claude Agent SDK.
I am still reconciling all the difference between the two. FML.

How Anthropic’s product team moves faster than anyone else I sat down with @_catwu, Head of Product for Claude Code at @AnthropicAI, to get a peek into their unprecedented shipping pace, how AI is changing the PM role, and how to be the right amount of AGI-pilled. We discuss: 🔸 How Anthropic’s shipping cadence went from months to weeks to days 🔸 The emerging skills PMs need to develop right now 🔸 Why you should build products that don't work yet—then wait for the model to catch up 🔸 Why a 95% automation isn't really an automation 🔸 Cat’s most underrated AI skill (introspection) 🔸 What Cat actually looks for when hiring PMs now (hint: it's not traditional PM skills) Listen now 👇 youtu.be/PplmzlgE0kg

👀 what we know about the Anthropic Mythos unauthorized access situation so far:
- Apr 7: Anthropic announces Claude Mythos Preview ("too dangerous for public release"). Same day, a private Discord gets in.
- Bloomberg broke it Apr 21. Everyone else is rewriting.
- Vector: a 3rd-party contractor's legit creds + Mythos endpoint URL guessed from Anthropic's naming convention.
Possibly bootstrapped off a prior Mercor breach.
- The Discord runs GitHub-monitoring bots to surface unreleased model endpoints.

Some personal news! Recently, I stepped back from the day-to-day at @Instacart to focus on investing full-time. I sat down with my friend @jaltma on Uncapped to talk about building Instacart and my philosophy on early-stage investing — check it out here!
Jack Altman@jaltma
For this episode of Uncapped I got to sit down with my close friend @Max, cofounder of Instacart 🥕 We talked about the key moments of Instacart...how it got started, critical wins, tough losses, competitive dynamics, earned insights, going public, and Instacart's future. Max is also an awesome startup investor, and we talked about what he looks for in founders, consumer investing, and what he's building with Workshop.

I’d love to try an AI native CRM that is 10x better than Salesforce or Hubspot. Attio isn’t it - marginal at best
