“Thariq would build a mobile game economy and have Opus run daily A/B tests, brainstorm new variants each morning, and implement the winners—real work that boosts the game’s chances of success.”

#3 𝕏 Thariq would build a mobile game economy and have Opus run daily A/B tests, brainstorm new variants each morning, and implement the winners—real work that boosts the game’s chances of success. #12 𝕏 Thariq argues mobile games are demand-constrained and hinge on rigorously iterated in-game economies and monetization. He believes coding agents could speed up finding the optimal economy.
