The AI Tool Graveyard: MiroFish

MiroFish is a swarm intelligence prediction engine. You feed it articles and data, it builds thousands of AI agents with unique personalities, drops them into simulated Twitter and Reddit, and watches them argue their way to a prediction.

It topped GitHub Trending. It got real investment. The tech is genuinely fascinating.

I let it rip on my MacBook Pro. The fans screamed for hours while thousands of fake humans debated each other. When it finally finished — vague sentiment summaries I could have guessed myself.

Hours of compute. Minutes of insight.

The lesson: Simulation isn’t understanding. A thousand agents debating your problem is mesmerizing to watch and nearly impossible to act on.
