Censored, slow, or expensive tokens will kill your personal agent entourage
AccBalanced · x · 2026-11-15
Reacting to Steve Yegge's software-factory talks, AccBalanced predicts that personal "agent entourages" via agentic chiefs of staff are inevitable next year.
His core claim: such agents run 24/7 background tasks and need low-latency, event-driven responses, so your choice of inference supplier becomes critical — censored, slow, or expensive tokens will kill the entourage. He points to noahrshinn's project Instinct as an example.
