with coding, you have sort of a framework for doing it right, if you have good specs, good testing practices, strict grounding in expected results deterministically, good linting, etc... this is much easier to automate with AI for the coding part within that assuming you did your homework around it... i don't have experience with all the business layers but it seems a bit more nuanced and fuzzy as you get away from that "harness" of sorts as it doesn't have to work in the same way as code for execution and evaluation... and even if code works, it still needs tastemakers in the final ok. maybe the taste maker ability still needs a lot of work/scale to be feasible, idk, like its still earlier than later on that. maybe Elon already cracked this to an extent given his automation in various companies.
i see this and think about Suno's playbook where this could go... survival of the fittest rules the boards where you have user-generated-dynamic video games, not just static ones where design is fixed, the design will be adaptive... based off several prompt input boxes for various things and adhoc while playing, higher tier design boards and the like, this is all going toward user-gen commercial / vanity / personal enjoyment.
so was I then I got the job... i think it's innovative because bots are just filling these out anyway, being mad at a tech company for building tech, that's like calling the kettle well a kettle.
I do too care about this but I say this in the reality in which we are. This reminds me of those signs "no shirt, no shoes, no service" except it's much worse, only sentient beings will actually care about it, while non-sentients will simply trample over the sign while token predicted laughter erupts from their token predicted sense of humor artifact.
Elon said it well, there must be some disincentive to do this.
Isn't this more about identity crisis? Not in the psychological sense but in the internet sense? Who is real who isn't? Crypto proof of work idk? Your profile like d LinkedIn or Hacker News or something gives your clawbot x credits worth of legit automated queries or rate limits on your behalf? It could be flipped upside down where we don't spend our eyes off on reading websites anymore, it just goes and gets it for us but I may be hallucinating.
i get it but what else do you call it right now? its like a full stack dev that builds chatbots with apis and streaming and context fixes, it's a confusing term because it hints at ML core but then you see what they want and there is no model training/inference usually involved. Maybe "AI Fullstack?" idk either but I literally have been doing this over the last 2 years but ya ended up doing model training/inference too but the IMO obtuse leadership didn't want it.
so I made this and frankly i was in shock that it worked so well, so i decided to make it plugable as an MCP, i have used this approach for 3 projects now and I frankly can't live without it. I hope other people find it useful but ya you never know. Coding in a vacuum isn't useful so lmk what you think if you try it out etc.
ah gotcha... i was picturing like this massive web page that was dog slow that you just like made mad fast... but that's cool though. I'll run it.
I built autonomo on github, it's this mcp you plugin to your whatever ai editor and it drives the app/web/desktop whatever thing and validates it actually runs and works... keep building homie!
this looks neat and reminds me of "Ferrari" for fast and combines "react" so it's a great name. Was there a specific use case for this that inspired you? I would imagine some massive existing heavy thing that you plugged in to fix to save it? I just put my open source thing out so it's nice to see some traction on yours, rooting for you.
idk, i'm loving the newness of all of it, I feel more empowered than ever before, like it's my time. Before startups would take like a year to get going, now it's like a month or so. It's exciting and scary, we have no idea where it's going. Not boring at all. I was getting bored as shit and bam, now i can dream up shit quick and have it validated to, ya i figured that out with an MCP so ya this is my jam. Program MCPs and speed it up!!!!!!
ya, for real, my boss was like let's do e2e testing with AI, look for solutions out there... then like 2 days later he's like wtf is this bill, and i was like you wanted that right? Was using vision calls in azure foundry and was like over 100 bucks or something just in 2 days of me setting it up and trying it out with all the test cases it had.
Tried posting this yesterday evening but timing was off and it got buried quickly (4 points, no comments). Reposting now during peak hours.
I built Autonomo MCP because AI coding agents (Cursor, Claude, etc.) are great at generating code but terrible at actually running and validating it in real apps. They hallucinate, rely on slow screenshots, or break on multi-device flows.
Autonomo MCP gives agents a fast (~50ms), structured JSON view of app state (semantic UI IDs, network calls, errors, logs) across web + iOS + Android + desktop simultaneously. Local-first, MCP-integrated, no cloud leaks.
- Swap vision bloat for tiny tokens - Cross-device validation (e.g. tap mobile → see web update) - Early stage, just launched: https://github.com/sebringj/autonomo
Would love feedback: Does this solve a pain point for anyone building agentic dev tools? What platforms/workflows would you want next? (Android/Kotlin and C#/.NET are on the TODO list.)
i was 7 when i programmed on a commodore 64... and walked to school in 1 foot of snow... (kidding on the last one) sorry but he's not little but nice game.
I went all in with Nintendo's Wii offering after watching the Japanese commercials and made a nice chunk of change. The Wii was a game changer at the time and I get the same happy tingly feeling offering on this as well. Nintendo innovated again in the completely sideways manner we are used to, bucking the VR roadmap.
you might as well try my autonomo mcp in github, its kind of badass, tbh
