yes indeed, but it is not enough and was looking to find more stuff to try specifically for voice

8 people team does not look like "solo" at all

yes agree most hype around agents is around stuff that ignore these patterns

agree imho this industry should start to communicate in a much more immediate way with social media and reels - already happening

these mail should come from an internal account though right? Or is it possible to poison the output from the outside?

very cool break down! it looks like it is very hard to defend against those. I am building a customer facing agent and I am looking for lean ways to defend against these attacks

what do you recommedn?

not sure how much we can apply this here, but how about specific LLM judges that look for manipulation of I/O?

what open source libraries would you recommend to implement these checks?

also do guardrails in the system prompts actually work?

Yes. First startup and jumped right at it, skipping the fundamentals.

I was not the only one though, the investor gave us a lot of money with a very bad shareholder agreement

Cofounder was a uni friend. I was introduced to the investor by a common friend, but needed to do more dd.

Agree on the vesting. Rookie mistake. Also on the investor part - surprisingly they never asked it.

Will make sure to involve a good lawyer as soon as possible in the next venture

Uni friend. We had aligned interests. But the red flags have always being there.

Great question. I'll try to have a trial period on the job. Set a high bar for integrity and execution. And then legal vesting...

Yes but way below market rate. Honestly, that's my mistake, I could have negotiate it better and asked for more. I did not think about the worst case scenarios enough.

Good investors understand the benefits of founders mental health and should not push you to work for free.

Yes... Cofounders should be people that you have been knowing for years.

It is very easy to fuck it up
