Legit question, am I missing anything not playing with agents? Like, what's the killer-app feature vs chatgpt prompt?
Let me guess, in the next 6 months, Elixir and Erlang becoming fashionable to build AI agents and then another hype cycle of AI usage and marketing of Elixir. What's old is now rebranded, reheated and new again.
The point mikehostetler makes – 'agents must be architecturally correct WITHOUT LLMs before they can be correct WITH LLMs' – is underappreciated in most production deployments. We see this constantly: the failure mode isn't model quality, it's undefined operational boundaries and missing human-in-the-loop checkpoints for edge cases. Supervision trees as a first-class design primitive rather than an afterthought seems…
This will be solved - and I hope that Jido can be a meaningful participant in that wider conversation.
Congrats on the front page MH, hard to forget fellow Chicago/midwest entrepreneurs.
cool Although... the agent orchestration is really the easy part. It is just a loop. You can solve this in many different ways and yes some languages are more suitable for this than others. But still - very straightforward. The hard part is making sure these agents can do useful things which requires connecting them to tools. Although just adding bash might seem like checking that box the reality is more complex when…
I came to similar conclusions - what does valuable agentic software look like? It's not OpenClaw (yet)
The game theory then, in my opinion, is to focus on the knowable frontier - implement tools we can trust - and continue working and sharing that work.
I am holding onto the optimistic case - valuable use cases beyond coding agents will emerge.
I am an amateur, can you point me in the correct direction to understand BEAM and use JIDO 2.0 to start building? Please.
Thanks, Jose
