But I also think that companies tend to move pretty slowly, especially large companies.

In fact, according to the consulting firm Gartner,

Over 40% of businesses AI agent projects will be canceled by the end of 2027 because of unclear business value or inadequate risk controls and escalating costs.

And let's talk about the cost part real quick because not enough people are talking about it.

So running these AI agents is not cheap.

These AI agent tools don't just have like a monthly flat fee cost.

It's not like signing up for ChatGPT Pro.

These agents consume token.

And the more complex the task, the more tokens are used.

And that compute bill adds up pretty fast.

That's the biggest thing that I've learned from using these tools myself.

I run out of tokens pretty fast.

So in the near future, it still might be cheaper having a human do a task compared to an AI agent.

But look, there's no doubt that the cost of computing is going lower, and there's no doubt that AI is going to change the way that we work.

But I'm just not ready to panic over it just yet.

In the meantime, I will be holding on to my Nvidia stock as a hedge of potentially losing my job to an AI agent.

Well, all right, guys, that's it for today's weekend deep dive.

Hope you guys enjoyed today's episode.

Let me know what you guys think about the rise of AI agents.
