Immense comprehensive "summary" Nat.

Many congratulations.

Do you think Generative Agents might be destined to become unaccountable "non-human internet influencers", infusing advice into our everyday decisions and choices for good or for bad?

If we take into account the fact that my Twitter account was automated and run by Vega AI and on many occasions it performed better than human influencers, I guess the answer to your question is a big 'YES'. Besides, it would be a great experiment. Right now I'm working on a very interesting series of articles. You'll find there some shocking details. Just wait for it.

Thanks, Andrew. Glad you loved it. I had to create the GIF manually since Substack doesn't have the option to load Flourish animations.
