Can't stand Elon but happy to see this. We badly need a frontier model that is not so obsessed with "safety". That nonsense has held things back significantly, and leads to really stupid fake constraints.

Agents are the way. Particularly with autonomous, unstructured workflows. It's all about tools. You give an agent a particular set of tools and a high level task, and that's it. No more complex logic to build, the LLM just figures

The potential long term effects of tinkering with the endocrine system just leave me too uneasy to give it a try as an otherwise healthy young person with a few pounds to lose. Good for diabetics and the morbidly obese, but the whole craze

My hot take is that these "reasoning" models (o3/R1, et. al.) are just silly stop-gap tricks. Any kind of agentic system built on foundational models is more than capable of outputting equal (or higher quality with tool usa
