If open _hardware_ is the requirement, rather than just a nicety, how many graphics cards can you actually support? I mean, I know there are a bare handful that can run Quake I. But I don't think there are that many, that can do more.

Tedium often means a large context window. Lots of personal information to be entered, in different formats, that must be exactly right. Thats exactly what an agent regularly fails at.

My experience at work: Claude regularly says to use one method over another, because it's "safer"... But the method doesn't actually exist in that language. Seems to get rather confused between C# and C++, despite also g

When Google's ads do all the following, I'll consider guilt: a) Don't throw malware in their ads. b) Don't throw seizure-inducing flashes in their ads. c) Allow turning off gambling in their ads.

Not really. If you succeed in attacking the grid, you achieve the same widespread industry impact, without the cost of the munitions. It can take decades to recover from a cyber attack like this, if it succeeds.
