Considering the amount of fungicide/pesticide needed even (especially?) for organic fruit, it would be suboptimal.

It's kind of like having a 16 gallon gas tank in your car versus a 4 gallon tank. You don't need the bigger one the majority of the time, but the range anxiety that comes with the smaller one and annoyance when you DO need it is v

The big change here is: > Standard pricing now applies across the full 1M window for both models, with no long-context premium. Media limits expand to 600 images or PDF pages. For Claude Code users this is huge - assuming coherence remai

I think they already are. When I used the prompt with 5.2 it gives very concise and general info but if you use older models (5.1 instant or o3) you get a ton of detail.

I don't think LLMs are very good at introspection on what they know or don't know, but otherwise this is gold. Thanks for sharing.

API Opus 4.6 will tell you it's still 2025, admit it's wrong then revert back to being convinced it's 2025 as it nears it's context limit. I'll go so far as to say LLM agents are AGI-lite but saying we "just ne

Manual orchestration is a brittle crutch IMO - you don't get to the moon by using longer and longer ladders. A powerful model in theory should be able to self orchestrate with basic tools and environment. The thing is that it also migh

I really don't see why AGI can't be a spectrum and we just have very weak AGI and going from weak to strong will take many years, if it ever happens.

And yet another way to look at it is maybe current LLM agents are AGI, but it turns out that AGI in this form is actually not that useful because of its many limitations and solving those limitations will be a slow and gradual process.

IMO if you haven't seen an agent (SOTA) veer off a plan and head towards a landmine you haven't used them long enough. And now with Ralph loops, etc it will just bury it. ClawdBot/MoltBot/OpenClaw is what ~2 months old s

On the other hand the average human has a context window of 2.5 petabytes that's streaming inference 24/7 while consuming the energy equivalent of a couple sandwiches per day. Oh and can actually remember things.

Maybe I'm being dumb but that reads very contradictory? I would say that security is explicitly a matter of adding particular things.

Kinda but not really. The model thinks it's 2024 or 2025 or 2026, but really it has no concept of "now" and this no sense of past or present... Unless it's instructed to think it's a certain date and time. If every

Sounds like something for an investigation to figure out - wonder why they are fighting that so hard. Also sure sounds like a lot of victim blaming considering he died without ever doing anything warranting his death.

A better way to put it is with this example: I put my symptoms into ChatGPT and it gives some generic info with a massive "not-medical-advice" boilerplate and refuses to give specific recommendations. My wife (an NP) puts in anony
