1/7 Even the best agents get tool calls wrong. What helps them recover? Our previous study showed why a convincing answer isnโ€™t enough. We took 60 failed runs and tried three recovery methods on them. Hereโ€™s what we learned.

Taking in the views of Cape Town! ๐Ÿ“ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ The @StellarOrg x @CV_Labs Accelerator stepped away from the classroom over the weekend to explore the natural beauty South Africa has to offer. The CV Labs / CV VC team and the selected cohort climbed Lion's Head for scenic views of Cape Town, saw penguins at Boulder's Beach, visited the stunning wine region of Franschhoek, and ventured to the most south-western point of Africa. With week two now in full swing, it's back to building the future of finance on Stellar, with workshops focused on navigating the legal landscape, what stablecoins can offer, and how to fundraise in the world of AI.

Switzerland is world-class at birthing startups... but weโ€™re terrible at keeping them. We fund over 80% of our early-stage startups with Swiss capital, only to hand the keys to foreign funds the moment they scale.
