Lindy Teammate: Flo Crivello on Multiplayer Agents, Memory & Why He'd Ban the Chinese Models He Uses
About this episode
Flo Crivello discusses the launch of Lindy Teammate, an AI employee designed to enhance team collaboration and context in workflows.
Flo Crivello returns to The Cognitive Revolution to launch Lindy Teammate, an AI employee that lives in Slack, connects to company tools, and accumulates a team’s shared context. He argues that multiplayer AI matters because intelligence without context is less useful than an ordinary coworker, and explains Lindy’s approach to agentic memory, editable file systems, context buckets, and large-scale tool outputs. The episode also examines the costs and operating realities of building for the next generation of models, from negative gross margins and cache rates to Lindy’s own dogfooding in engineering workflows. The stakes are whether AI workers become drop-in teammates, how long humans are still needed to cover model mistakes, and what happens when engineers spend more time managing the machines that do the work.
