Why is your assistant named the same as Rohlik's?

:bullseye: What is your goal?

I want to determine which Maia I’m talking to. Make’s Maia builds my scenarios, Rohlik’s Maia builds my shopping cart. Both are Czech-born AI assistants named Maia, launched a few months apart. My goal: order groceries without accidentally deploying a webhook, and build automations without receiving 2 kg of bananas

:thinking: What is the problem?

Ambiguous variable name in production. Two Prague-adjacent companies resolved maia to different services, and there’s no namespace. When I say “Maia, add rohlíky,” one of them adds bread rolls to my cart and the other one presumably tries to find a Rohlik module in the scenario builder. Was there a checkNameAvailability() module that failed silently, or is Maia just the Czech tech industry’s favorite daughter name for 2025/26?

:test_tube: What have you tried so far?

Renaming my own assistant to avoid the collision. Prefixing every request with the company IČO. Asking Maia (unclear which) she confidently answered, which didn’t help. Genuinely curious though: coincidence, shared naming agency, or is Maia new “Joe Doe” of AI assistants?

I’m just teasing you a little. Both Maias are working flawlessly, each in her own universe. Keep up the great work :purple_heart:

Hey @Viktor_Danko,

It’s just a coincidence :slight_smile: I hope that as you familiarize yourself with our Maia, you’ll get used to distinguishing which one deploys a webhook, and which delivers bananas. :flexed_biceps:

Interesting coincidence :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:. I doubt there’s any actual connection between the two products, but “Maia” does seem like a pretty natural name for an AI assistant. The namespace issue is definitely the funny part though—hopefully nobody accidentally deploys a grocery cart workflow!
