Their AI agents never sleep. Now neither do they.
Founders are pulling all-nighters not despite their AI agents but because of them. One co-founder's bots ship features at 2 a.m., so he's gone to bed at 6 a.m.; another, retired for good, un-retired and now clocks 7:30 a.m. to 2 a.m. daily. The more agents do, the more human work their speed creates. The irony: automation marketed as leverage is delivering agents-and-bone hours.
