Wabi 2.0 is live!

personal agents are one person, one chat. but the parts of life that matter run on more than one person

Wabi is an agent you use together. you talk to it, it does stuff, builds the apps you need, and anyone can join the thread - your partner, your best friend, the preschool moms groupchat

school changes pickup time → Wabi updates the family calendar, everyone sees it.
a show you’d both love → Wabi finds a night that works, gets the tickets.
the trip everyone keeps talking about → Wabi picks the dates, builds the itinerary, books it

go start a thread with your people 👇

excited for @wabi x @Shopify

wabi Verified account @wabi 3d

wabi 🤝 @Shopify: your group chat just became your personal shopper.

the camping trip. mom’s birthday. the themed bachelorette party. it all starts in the group chat. now you can shop there, too.

just ask wabi to “find us a tent and sleeping bags.” it already knows the plan, everyone's tastes, budgets, and what you need, so recommendations are tailored to your group.

with Shopify, wabi can search millions of merchants, compare products, check live prices and availability, and find discounts that actually work.

once everyone agrees, check out securely with Shop Pay using your saved details, and track your orders right in the chat.

find it. compare it. buy it. track it. all together. all in one place.

art is the ability to show and tell, through a kind of eloquent shorthand, how it feels to be alive

this gap can only be narrowed with the right interface for AI

It’s almost incomprehensible how wide the distance is between someone who’s working at the frontier with AI and basically everyone else right now.

The crazy thing is these lines are not converging, but only growing farther apart. If the curve of AI progress had leveled off, it would certainly have given most people and companies time to catch up or implement their workflows in a standardized way. The technology would have neutralized competitive advantage because everyone would be using it the same way.

But what’s happened is the opposite. The curve of AI progress is basically going vertical right now, which means if you had codified your processes 3-6 months ago you’re likely already behind again. Now imagine most companies that kicked into gear a year ago and thought that they were done. Even further behind now.

I’ve never seen a technology in my life and career that improves at this rate, which consequently means you need to upgrade your expectations at a similar rate. Our brains weren’t wired for this, and our organizational change management processes certainly weren’t either.

With any form of recursive self improvement, things just get wilder. It’s a time when you will need to be constantly reevaluating the things that didn’t work just a couple months ago to see if they now can be solved. AI native companies certainly have a strong advantage due to this right now, so now it comes down to can the bigger companies keep up. Wild times.
