    Agents are for augmenting small teams! I am working in Agentic Users to push AI agents implementation for solopreneurs, consultants and more!

    The goal is to allow people to provide better services with real relationships and let AI manage non core work!

    Let’s be clear: if you build and deploy an AI agent, the liability falls on YOU, not Big Tech. Companies like OpenAI and Google shield themselves with API contracts that limit their liability. When your agent goes rogue and causes harm, it’s YOUR company that will face lawsuits and regulatory fines. You can’t outsource responsibility.
