AI agent creation using screen recording and MCPs
Hi all,
I have been thinking about a problem and a possible solution to it so thought of asking it here.
I see a massive opportunity in AI agents for automations.Though the opportunity is there, why hasn't the adoption skyrocketed as of now ?
- Is it the talent density ? - or people don't know how they can leverage AI for their workflows ?
Also do you guys think, if I build something where "employees can upload their screen recording and maybe the platform can build sub agents to optimize their workflows using MCP/APi calling" would add value ?

Show HN: ForeverYOU – Create an AI-powered version of yourself [video]
Hi HN!
I'm Pedro, and I recently started working on ForeverYOU, a platform to help people preserve their voice, memories, and emotions — creating an interactive AI-powered digital self that can live on as a legacy.
I'm building this solo, without a technical background, but with a passion for innovation and storytelling. The platform is in early development, with some core features already live.
I'd love your feedback! - Do you see value in a product like this? - What would make it meaningful for you?

Which IT certifications have the highest failure rates? And why do so many candidates struggle with them? From AWS to CompTIA, some exams consistently challenge even experienced professionals. In 2025, do coding certifications still hold value for developers, or has practical experience taken the lead?
