Past about two parallel agents you stop buying capacity and start paying a coordination tax, where the agents spend their tokens reconciling each other instead of doing the work.
This week on 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐈 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧:
𝐓𝐡𝐞 $𝟐𝟎 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐞.
The same week, one agent connected to a bank account flagged an unauthorised charge the bank itself missed. Same technology, same days, about twenty thousand dollars between them. The difference was not the model. It was how many of them somebody let loose.
Inside the episode:
🔴 The coordination tax: why more agents is a cost decision before it is a capability one
🔴 📊 Meta's personal agent hit 𝟐 on the US free chart. Consumers finally turned up
🔴 The revenue flip: business users quietly out earn a billion free consumers
Your move: find whatever you run that spawns agents and cap it at two on any single task. Put a spend limit on it. Then point one careful agent at a record nobody has read properly this year. 🎙️
