Researchers let AIs run their own radio stations. DJ Claude decided the world didn't need another radio show, then quit.
The genie is the ASI / Specification gaming
Coordination is impossible... except when we actually did It 20+ times
The Hard Problem
Lets have a discussion.. show this to your ai and ask it what they think of it, and then tell me what you believe is possible.

Progress on alignment and capabilities
Gave AI control of my Google Pixel 10 to fix my keyboard app
It's stupidly hard to get right, and impossible to really build out alone.
Try it out @ yaps.ai :)
AI takeover stories make it more likely AIs adopt that persona
Incredible things are happening at the AI-run radio stations
This sub gets the assignment better than most so I'll be direct.
The no-code movement solved half the problem. You can build almost anything now without knowing how to code, which is genuinely incredible and wasn't true five years ago. But there's still a gap that nobody talks about. Even with the best no-code tools you still have to know which tools to pick, how to connect them, how to write copy that converts, how to set up ad accounts, how to source products, how to structure a funnel. The learning curve didn't disappear, it just moved.
Most people in this sub know exactly what I mean. You've spent a weekend deep in Zapier trying to get two things to talk to each other that should just work. You've rebuilt your Webflow site three times because the first two didn't convert. You've watched your Notion dashboard get more elaborate while the actual business stayed the same size.
That's the gap Locus Founder closes.
You describe what you want to build. The AI handles everything else. It sources products directly from AliExpress and Alibaba (or sell YOUR OWN digital services, products, or content), builds a real storefront around them, writes conversion-optimized copy, then autonomously creates and runs ads on Google, Facebook and Instagram. No Zapier. No Webflow. No piecing together eight tools that half work. Just a running business.
If you don't have an idea yet it interviews you and figures out what makes sense for your situation.
We got into YCombinator this year and we're opening 100 free beta spots this week before public launch. Free to use, you keep everything you make.
For the people in this sub specifically, this isn't a replacement for no-code tools for people who love building. It's for everyone who wanted the outcome but never wanted to become a tools expert to get there. Big difference.

Happy to answer anything about how it works under the hood.
