What is discussed
AskMonty AI editorial noteSource consulted:
Montemagno documents the first week of Spiegamelo Facile, a publishing project he hopes to run almost entirely with AI agents. Launch brings outages, fixes and infrastructure work, followed by source research, selection and newsletter writing. His conclusion qualifies the promised autonomy: AI performs many tasks, but he still checks every important step and personally sends the first edition, questioning trust, costs and technical dependence.
Key points
- Initial failures reveal the need for monitoring, backups and separate testing and production environments.
- Editorial quality requires useful research, duplicate checks and revision of tone.
- 95% autonomy remains a goal; supervision, reliability and risk management still require substantial human work.
