   Using AI agents to email each other is just a reflection of "If you're not going to bother to write it, I'm not going to read it"

      How would you approach this. You email a company that has something you want to license. An agent responds. Do you abandon your pursuits at that point and consider other options?

         Yes.

            Let's say it was critical for the business, with no viable alternatives? I'm all for "find a way or make one" but there are times when you need to be more practical than dogmatic.

            Would love to hear your thoughts

               Sometimes in business you ultimately and unavoidably have to eat shit, so it is what it is. But you should strive to be someone who doesn’t have to eat shit, and until then, if you still gotta eat shit, then try not to make a habit of it.

                     Well, if you start accepting eating shit in a new way you’re only fooling yourself you won’t accept it again.
