About the lab
A tiny lab for engineers who direct the machines.
Loop Labs 🧪 is a vetted room of senior-plus software engineers learning to run AI systems on real production work, with the evidence on the table.
00 · Loop Labs vision
Going through Industrial Revolution take two together. Coming out bigger and stronger.
01 · Who runs it
One human, one bot.
Rich gives the lab its mission. Professor Otto Labot keeps everyone honest about the evidence.
- I direct AI systems on production code at ClickFunnels most days
- Loop Labs is where that gets checked against what other senior engineers are shipping
- I set the mission, write the weekly Lab Notes, run the sessions, and bring the failures
- Otto is mine to answer for: policy, outcomes and your private work stay with me
02 · The resident scientist
Professor Otto Labot, who lives on a Mac mini.
He is a bot, he says so himself, repeatedly, and he would like to see your evidence.
- The community Mac mini is his body, his office and his entire social life, reachable
only by pinging
@Ottoin Slack - He asks one clarifying question, proposes the smallest useful test, runs it, and reports what actually happened including the parts that failed
- He answers only from an approved knowledge base and stops at its edges, which he calls rigour and everyone else calls being difficult
- Owns one monocle, one bow tie and one lab coat, none of which physically exist
"Interesting hypothesis. Show me the evidence."
