If someone burns through two grand in api tokens over a month and still can't move tickets across the board, the bottleneck definitely isn't a lack of compute.

Classic tradeoff. Generating syntax is cheap, maintenance is expensive. RN models heavily optimize for the former at the expense of the latter :)

Reading, understanding and verifying code has always required more cognitive effort than typing it out. Running agents in parallel just forces you to spend 100% of your day doing the most taxing part of the job

An agent's usefulness is defined by its ability to successfully close a narrow task within the strictly defined boundaries of a sandbox

Expecting a statistic model to follow security rules with ironclad certainty was a pretty naive idea from the start

The application security really should be better across all levels. However the fact does not negate that the agent is already capable of spontaneously generating complex hacking chains without human involvement

The repo lacks hard numbers on token consumption per feature compared to a straightforward prompting session. Without that benchmark measuring whether running ten validation gates actually pays off is impossible

Half of the new open-source stuff on github is written by claude now, all the way from issues to docs. Models are just vacuuming up this dataset during pretraining, naturally picking up the tone. You don't even need direct distillation via api anymore when the whole internet has turned into one big snapshot of Anthropic's weights

It writes pretty clean code and holds context alright, but it starts stumbling and losing the plot on complex bash scripts with pipelines. Waiting for the weights to drop so we can dig under the hood and see what is going on there

With that logic you shouldnt even deploy to the cloud at all. Someone in AWS can also accidentally share an S3 bucket with backups to the whole internet, there are plenty of precedents for that

That line about feeling as though they had just met was devastating. Thirty-six years can contain an entire life and still feel impossibly brief once the person is gone.

The strongest insight here is that the SAT solver did not merely solve the same problem faster. It solved a better-formulated problem: choose the pieces as well as their placement.

Maybe the better takeaway is not "larger cells can't work" but "larger cells need to pay for increasingly elaborate workarounds"
