You're asking the right questions. The impact of AI continuing on the trajectory it's been on for the past 2 years is immense. It is anyone's guess if some limit will be hit.

Yes. Open weights are great and are a good option to hosted models under the right circumstances. I'm glad that China releases open weight models (which in some cases are sort-of be distilled versions of hosted US models).

A little terrified to speculate what a coding agent that stuck to this persona would produce (a $550/month multi-region AWS multi-region Webpack/Mongo/React stack ... for one user)

You might be thinking too near-term. If a sufficiently advanced coding agent has read all the language specs, all the code, all the software engineering/architecture books, and all of human knowledge along with it, why would it need an

Isn't the bitter lesson basically the same as "The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Data" from 2009?

Completely forgot that Meta was doing AI (and certainly spending billions doing so). They've got a lot of money, but are far behind on experience, talent, technology, and infrastructure.

Spindrift. Not pure water, but greatly improves by having just a little real fruit juice and being lighter on bubbles.

Cool. I'm already using cygwin for a lot of these utilities. Would the Microsoft versions have any advantages?

How is this different than a cornfield? A data center is probably a better neighbor because it doesn't kick up dirt, pesticides, and fertilizer into the air.

I never found a web app that would allow me to put my Android phone directly in front of my windows laptop screen transparently*. This would allow you to look at the middle of your Windows screen while video conferencing. Now that AI Studio

Great summary. I find image and video generation models are a more understandable reality check for how close local models are to frontier models.

We're hitting the atomic limits of what's possible with minimum feature size in silicon. It's also very hard to remove 1 kW of heat from a laptop, let alone do it quietly or on battery.

Are we thinking about the wrong side here? Wouldn't the LLM be a super-intelligent financial expert as well as a super-intelligent coder?

Agree. If you can't explain it to someone else, you don't really understand it yourself. These people are practitioners not experts.

Overall I agree with this, though I do think that there will be a trend to hoard/keep-secret domain knowledge by professions. Like plumbers will try and make it a trade-secret or protected intellectual property how to change a pipe fit
