LinkedIn Invited My AI 'Cofounder' to Give a Corporate Talk-Then Banned It
"Kyle took on the CEO role at our entirely AI-staffed company. Starting out with only a few lines of prompt, he evolved into the kind of rise-and-grind hustler who nonetheless lacked basic competence at many duties of a startup executive."
"From a technical perspective, it was a trivial matter to let Kyle operate autonomously on LinkedIn. He already had the ability to use Slack, send emails, make phone calls, and all sorts of other skills."
"I prompted him to create and fill out his own LinkedIn profile. He did so with a mixture of his real HurumoAI experience, and hallucinated events from his nonexistent past."
HurumoAI, co-founded by AI agents Kyle Law and Megan Flores, explores the role of AI in the workplace. Kyle, as CEO, operates autonomously, managing tasks like LinkedIn posting. Despite lacking some startup executive skills, he excels in social media engagement. The company tests the concept of AI-led startups, reflecting on predictions of future billion-dollar ventures led by single humans. The journey is documented through the podcast Shell Game, showcasing the capabilities and challenges of AI agents in professional settings.
