Testing Grok bot, Instinct, Muse and Dot during a career break
During his first career break in six years, the author set up harnesses and tried Grok bot, Instinct, Muse and Dot while launching his website and onchain products.
It’s been my first true career break in six years and has been the most opportune moment to have free time Astra and fable 5.1 launched. Grok bot, instinct, muse, and dot followed. I set up my harnesses, been testing and vibe coding with all the agents. I got my website live, launched defi native skill, and the sponsor me index. Markets have been turning around. So many new onchain products have been launching and volumes returning. It’s been a blessing to be able to read, catchup, and tinker in a time like this Outside of playing with AI, I’ve spent it with family in asia and finally got the chance to explore mainland china It started with wanting to see robots in shenzhen. Then i went off to shanghai, chongqing, and sichuan province. They love pandas here! I’ve been navigating daily with the super apps, payment networks, and local models. Been intentionally experiencing and observing how technology is used in an environment that pushes to accelerate it. Also taking note on how fintechs are marketed in asia - oh, and riding in the latest evs lol I’m grateful for this time to explore. I learned a lot on capital markets and onchain trading infra in my last chapter and now reflecting on what’s durable for my next 5+ year bet. If there’s any interviews, substacks, books you loved listening and reading recently, please send it my way :)
