Meanwhile, I can't even get Astra to consistently re-use the same font-size across all of my HTML page headings+subheadings.There's just no world where this actually results in a stable, respected business. It will be death by a thousand bad impressions, mistakes and oversights.

I am in the process of attempting to have AI run my business... I still find myself having to review some categories of work for errors. These are decreasing over time, but they're still there.

Our approach at a high level is pretty simp... Getting agents to reliably do things is hard, and getting agents to build out software tools to help themselves improve and do better over time is also hard.

Correct me if I'm wrong but a human will be able to cut through the noise with quirky advertising, new/novel distribution methods, etc.Most of the bottleneck in business isn't building the things or sourcing, it's mostly advertising/sales.
