Lean AI: Adapting Metrics and Validation Cycles for Agentic Workflows
Re-architected classic Lean Startup build-measure-learn loops for autonomous agents, establishing new telemetry metrics for tracking task completion failure, hallucination recovery, and token cost efficiency.
Non-deterministic agent behaviors require larger statistical sample sizes for metric significance.
Context: Autonomous agent execution traces, telemetry analytics, unit economic tracking.
View missionThe Economics of Artificial Scarcity & Autonomous Business Units
Published strategic monographs dissecting how generative models collapse production costs to zero and detailing the subsequent realignment of margin, brand defensibility, and competitive moats in digital commerce.
Assumes continuous infrastructure price declines; energy and hardware constraints could create transient cost spikes.
Context: Microeconomic market structures, zero-marginal-cost software economics, platform strategy.
