I am not even the person who said "I wouldn't call it another form of API"... can you maybe just stick to the concrete and explain how this is different from SOAP/WSDL or OpenAPI/Swaggar? I honestly don't even

I don't understand your response as it feels like it is also my point, and something I would say to you? :( If the LLM cannot do basic tasks such as this, what are you going to do? Keep throwing more "tools" at it and hope to

This is like the simplest task you can give a software developer, as it is nigh-unto merely a document "translation" task, without much real thought required. If an LLM is failing to do this task, why do we hope whatever chain of

I didn't have a good term so I went with "API layer" (not merely "API"), but, to try to clarify... that's what you also get with SOAP/WSDL or any of the other numerous attempts over the years to build an A

This should be held up as a visceral demonstration of how the "slippery slope" isn't inherently a fallacy, as many oft like to claim: it is merely a form of argument that is easy enough to get wrong--leading to a fallacy when

It feels like a core part of your claim--at least half of it--relies on most software for "Wintel computers" being written in garbage collected languages, which would be shocking if it were true.

The way to analyze this is using pixel density: 1900x1200 on a 12" display is only 187 PPI, which is frustratingly below the "retina" range at the usual distance of a laptop screen (much less a tablet one, and this one is par
