He shared three prompts to get started:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Tell me how to be an expert at creating agents for small businesses.&#8221;&#8221;Create study guides that ask me questions.&#8221;&#8221;Correct me and adapt to my knowledge level.&#8221;So we tried Cuban&#8217;s prompts in Claude<\/p>\n<p>Claude responded with a list of business problems to target and tools to build them. The response prioritizes cost savings and automation.<\/p>\n<p>First, it zeroes in on unglamorous tasks that businesses already struggle to keep up with, like answering routine customer questions, scheduling appointments, and <a target=\"_self\" class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/solopreneur-ai-agents-dont-need-to-hire-staff-2026-2\" data-track-click=\"{&quot;element_name&quot;:&quot;body_link&quot;,&quot;event&quot;:&quot;tout_click&quot;,&quot;index&quot;:&quot;bi_value_unassigned&quot;,&quot;product_field&quot;:&quot;bi_value_unassigned&quot;}\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">chasing down invoices<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It then outlines a basic technical stack to work with. That includes orchestration tools like LangGraph, CrewAI, and AutoGen for managing multi-step tasks, as well as different AI models depending on the job. More advanced models are suggested for complex reasoning, while cheaper, faster models are recommended for high-volume tasks.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, it suggests a learning path: build several agents, study documentation from major AI providers, and focus on a small number of industries.<\/p>\n<p>Claude specifically pointed to restaurants, real estate, and e-commerce businesses as potential areas for AI improvement.<\/p>\n<p>Where Cuban sees the opportunity<\/p>\n<p id=\"3fb81fec-9cc4-4fe9-9dd7-4573ef481a5c\">Cuban has been hammering his optimism about opportunities in a world with AI.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3fb81fec-9cc4-4fe9-9dd7-4573ef481a5c\">In an August TBPN interview that&#8217;s now making the rounds on X, he said companies are still figuring out how to use AI effectively \u2014 and that&#8217;s created an opening for young job seekers, especially in smaller businesses.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Mark Cuban on the next job wave.<\/p>\n<p>Customized AI integration for small to mid-sized companies. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Software is dead because everything&#8217;s gonna be customized to your unique utilization.
