I'd like to imagine the things that can be done with this speed and the current frontier models.

Fully interactive games where you can talk to every NPC by text or voice and have an LLM drive the story (with your own meta prompts to guide it, if you so wish). Maybe even have them generate assets on the fly too.

I’m still trying to figure out coding agents. I can’t even begin to imagine the things it would enable. Even the most mundane ideas like LLMs-in-HiFreq-trading have huge implications.

0.03 seconds is an eternity in high frequency trading

You need to be 4 orders of magnitude faster at least

Seriously, if Fable or even Opus was this fast that would be a real game changer.

RSI will be models better than Fable running faster than this, you won't even need a human in the loop to figure out what to do. The high level goal will be accomplished better than the human in an instant
