Yes. It’s pretty trivial to pivot to, for these non-training/inference roles it’s just building systems where agents are the core implementation detail.

They explicitly call that out and mention if folks want to use it for paid projects, to just reach out. Thats a caveat obviously, but the intentions seem noble

It’s a shape that gained adoption and so now everyone is jumping into that solution space instead of innovating.
We are due for another innovator that adds a net new, valuable facet to the development experience soon.

Well, for each individual, there’s some level of disincentivization to act according to social and moral code. That’s kind of where shame and laws are supposed to come in to regulate. We are in a post-shame world it seems

A practical problem with the intuition approach is that you have no possible way to measure two people’s intuitions against each other. In smaller organizations that’s fine, but anytime you get larger you can’t weigh the intuition of 50 people against each other

Your entire comment hinges on this assumption and I don’t think it’s sound. Their intention is to make money at any cost.

Comparisons like this, while seeming to make sense using “common sense” rarely impart any value or scientific meaning. Maybe it works like that, maybe it doesn’t.
If as a result of less caloric consumption you’re starving your cells of needed nutrients, maybe that’s the one that degrades earlier.

They aren’t claiming that the doing less by itself changes the rate in this sentence. They are saying that the rate changes when you slow down, probably due to having more time to focus, which in my opinion is likely.

Yes except the analogy is better served as trillions of people watching, relaying license plates instantly, with other trillions of people doing pattern matching and math calculations to figure out where each license plate will be tomorrow.

I’d be more than happy to use a secure, fraud-safe payment system that does not give me airline miles if it meant everything was cheaper to begin with. Part of the problem with CC companies is they do many things that are tightly coupled and are positioned well to profit on them.

If a race to the bottom is incentivized then federal oversight needs to maintain some standards… if a states policy consisted of being able to murder someone from another state, we have federal policy to keep that in check. States rights does not mean unchecked states rights.

If they destroy things that were servicing public good like jobs, the market they are selling into, etc, it becomes the governments job to care. If you are advocating for zero oversight of corporations by government I don’t think you’ve seen the consequences of the last 40 years of the US. Monopolies only serve the owning class at the expense of the people.
