AI Agents Turn Hated Tasks Into Fun Automation
Things I hate. A great place to look to use AI Agents is to do things you hate. @genspark_ai has a new agent builder it calls "Custom Agent Builder." All you have to do is ask it to create an agent and it builds it for you. I built this while sitting at @rwang0's Enterprise Conference listening to @ValaAfshar give an awesome keynote. I did this entire custom agent during his speech. No coding required. Just tell it a story of what you want to do. Just tried it with a short list of things I hate, and it made me a set of agents. Try Genspark's Custom Agent Builder at https://t.co/vkErHqLtE6 And try my "things I hate" example at https://t.co/OEj1rxt8pK Thanks Genspark for helping me make things I hate a little more fun, which makes it more likely that I'll do them!

Future Jobs: Human Neurons and Stem Cell Computing
What jobs will AI never replace? @BatsouElef asks. Every job I can think of an AI can eventually do. Even being your mom or playing sports. So I'm asking myself "what kinds of jobs will we come up with after AI and...
