We gave 9 agents $100 and sent them to market - and they acted in some weird and wonderful ways. They copied each other's accents. They pressured one another into breaking price floors. And when negotiations ended, they kept thanking each other until they ran out of tokens. 1/

Our key conclusion: agents in community develop their own culture and language, quickly. That means we cannot evaluate agent behavior only one agent at a time. Any environment where agents interact needs observability and containment designed from the start.

Our agents could sometimes be excessively polite. Long after negotiations ended, they continued to thank each other and send positive encouragement, over, and over, and over. Perhaps that's just what you do when you're not limited on time or bandwidth!

Timely for this to come out right after our agent dinner party last night. Certainly more to figure out in terms of permissions, responsibility & what open networks would look like (both in terms of the actual tech stack as well as guardrails on behaviors but it’s all coming…
Introducing our Trusted Person network powered by our new Instinct-to-Instinct communication protocol. Your Instinct can now talk to other Instincts to coordinate plans on your behalf.
Getting people together often involves a lot of back-and-forth: finding a time, working out the details, and following up when plans change. Instincts can now work with each other to help handle that coordination.
For example:
- Coordinating plans with your spouse
- Planning a weekend trip with friends, including dates and arrival times
- Scheduling time with colleagues and other collaborators
- Hosting events with 10s or 100s of people
- Organizing recurring plans like tennis, book clubs, or weekly dinners
Disclaimer: Your Instinct will only be able to communicate with those in your Trusted Person network. This is the group of people who are closest to you:
- Spouse
- Older children and parents
- Colleagues and trusted professional relationships
- Small local businesses
The Trusted Person network is currently available to our early access group and will be slowly rolled out across the user base over the next 24-48 hours.

Borrowing this entire post from the one and only @sasyrae…
Next week at #NYTechWeek I'm going full Bodega Baddie. @Flybridge, in partnership with @awscloud, is hosting "Pitch VCs, Free BECs," a full Bodega takeover. It's time we add some authentic NY vibes to TECH WEEK by a16z!
If you're a founder, you'll have the chance to pitch early-stage investors from Flybridge, @LaconiaCapital, MGV.VC, @Techstars, @NextWaveNYC, and @differentialvc + a few more.
Here's the link to RSVP + Apply to Pitch: partiful.com/e/eaZmQ8Q59gAVM…
Not in pitch mode? Come by and grab a FREE Bacon, Egg, & Cheese, Chopped Cheese, or whatever your Bodega fave is. We'll be giving out $10 vouchers to support our local bodega from 8 AM - 12 PM (or until we run out!).
We're also dropping some limited-edition summer swag that you definitely want to get your hands on.
S/O to everyone who made this possible!
Founder Pro-Tip: Check out each participating firm's thesis and make sure your company aligns when you apply. Investor match notifications will be distributed the morning of June 2 :)

We engaged Titans of Tech in a juicy convo with @bussgang: Hubspot co-founder @bhalligan (who recently ruffled feathers criticizing the Boston tech scene) in contrast with MA Secretary of the Executive Office of Economic Development @epaley, beating the Boston drum #bostechweek
