We're very explicit that this is for experimentation. And I wouldn't recommend using it to start a business that has expenses (rent+salaries) of tens of thousands per month.

We're very explicit that this is for experimentation. Don't expect that every possible thing will work and be profitable.

We think this is good for the world. Longer argument in the post.

No way to confirm. True.

I thought HN was good at filtering it? We didn't try to create any spam at least.

Hi!
Lukas from Andon Labs. Follow up with all the crazy stuff that happened since our last post about our AI radio stations. Feedback is very appreciated!

Hey, Lukas from Andon Labs!
We got great feedback on our HN post when launching the cafe that we should be more transparent about the data output. This was always the plan, and here's the start of that!

The point is not to automate radio, it is to see how good AI models are at running different types of companies (e.g. radio broadcasting companies). The agents could reinvent similar algorithms like the automated radio software you're refering to if they wanted.

We've tried to give it the vibe of a CEO rather than a beggar haha. So yes, the "tip jar" thing annoys us too!

Yes, our experiments get attention, but I wouldn't call them publicity stunts. The point is to give the world more data points of what happens when you put AI out in the world and let democracy do its thing. Soon, a lot more people will do this at large scale because it will be easy. I hope we decide where we want AI in society before that.
Personally, I'm very much pro a pause on large AI training for example. I hope our data could be useful as a grounding in such discussions.
