Interesting take! I’d love to see it happen. It would bring incredible flexibility. While Android and iOS might not disappear, they’ll probably go cloud-first approach to provide more resources.

But, I see that APIs to the apps are going to go higher, just like X upping their API pricing. We cannot fully automate any kind of agents without paying them huge.

Chinese innovators have mastered building knock-offs faster and cheaper.

Now they’re taking the open-source route in AI. This shift could redefine tech, AI, war, and the global economy.

I got it quickly after I got "You've reach your trial request limit", because in that trial I was able to build something that would have made me work for a week, while here it was less than a day.

I'm building with js, and ruby, it works pretty well, obviously it's us who has to navigate it for better results.

For me, it's worth it.
