I gave an AI agent full access to my MacBook. It checks email, manages calendar, pushes code. Costs $20/month. A VA costs $2000.You Don't Need X:
You don't need a Mac Mini. You don't need a server. I'm running my AI agent on an old MacBook Air from a drawer.Gap Warning:
The gap between 'has AI agent' and 'doesn't' is about to get massive. I set mine up in 15 minutes.Urgency:
