You have to actually spend some effort reading the article they published to answer your own question.

The usage numbers tell a different story. Not only is the great majority of AI users on American frontier providers, they are also willing to pay the premium price for the premium product. It's not like tech is oblivious to the Chinese models. It's that the industry is aware they are always 6 months to a year behind.

You didn't discover some new trick for cost performance. And the rest of the world isn't dumb.

You're just too broke to afford the supercar and justifying the hooptie. It gets you to the kindergarten class after all. And that's all you need.

I'm a Principal with 26YOE. It's solved today. Not tomorrow. The industry isn't changing. It already happened. It happened so fast a lot of people not paying attention blinked and missed it. The sudden realization gave way to fear. And many a blog was written lamenting the loss of a bygone era.

It's highly entertaining I think.

Can we get some examples of what a good UI looks like then? I would like to see a UI design expert take a couple of these slop designs and show what each should look like according to their taste.

There is always a limit unless you start scaling horizontally in the sense that you have multiple accounts via subscription or API. There is always some limit to any single account, even via API.

I'm thinking the persistent agent is something that can't scale to multiple agents. Imagine only one agent you can invoke as many times as you want on a single account, but it cannot invoke subagents or scale itself. It's just always there ready to do work when you need it. But it behaves as "one".

This would be trivial to implement. Of course, if you have the money, you can have multiple $500 subscriptions and have multiple persistent agents.

Anomaly detection is getting better. A small delta can still trigger it. Wether a human reviewed it is another story. But the post mortem will reveal all the signs in hindsight.

Yea every PR submitted before LLMs was top tier work. Humans are born with an innate instinct to code and build complex software. It's the great equalizer. There are not outliers in coding. It is with great pleasure we "LGTM" and rubber stamp contributions. Nothing ever went wrong until LLMs ruined it for everyone.

Great. Now if they could support the `~/.agents/skills` path next like everyone else does that would be even better.

They are making these optimizations. They publish these reports too if you care to look.

No disaster recovery plan? No offsite backups? Someone failed to applied the most basic principles that have existed for decades.

Good luck building something of value with "day to day coding". If you're going to compete in the future economy, you're going to compete at the frontier. The low hanging fruit will be of no value. If I can recreate your SaaS with an open weight model at a fraction of the cost, then your SaaS has no value.

As opposed to what? Is enclave.ai signed up for GPT Cyber or Glasswing?

Jobs are going to evolve because of AI. Some jobs will be automated. New jobs will be created. It's like saying we should have never created car factories and automated much of it because we should think of the horse handlers and maintainers.

There will still be a market for "trust". And its customers will never trust the machines. And within that market a lot of new startups will emerge for those who actually get to work and seize opportunities rather than lament a bygone era.

Read the fine print. Use the API.

Nothing is stopping these folks from continuing to study the problems and arriving at their own solutions so they can continue having whatever insights along the way.

Well, one thing is stopping them. There will be no more adoration for their genius.

If you truly do it for understanding and not the attention, carry on. AI should change nothing about your motivations.

This reads like people lamenting a bygone era and making a desperate attempt to bring it back. I'm sorry. Outside of the good ol' boys club, no one cares about some process they've romanticized simply because "that's how its always been done". Absolute nonsense.

We are moving forward and if that means no human wins a fields medal because they didnt spend three decades working on a problem that could be solved in three days, the world will be better for it.

That's just the media noise. Yea there were purges. But its a big leap to go from "some" to "all" the best people. Government is the largest employer in the country. The nonsense you see constantly by politicians and other leaders is a tiny fraction of what the government workforce is. This is why despite the chaos you see in the media, life hasn't changed much for the great majority of people all things considered. The government remains functional where it needs to be.

Realpolitik might just be the best way to do things after all.

Taste has always been relevant regardless of tool. When Photoshop came out and it became trivial (relativelt speaking) to produce an infographic, the tool did not replace tase.

AI is no different.

Grass is green.

Every generation has had tech doomers. Every single one. History repeats. Yet we collectively move forward. This time it will be no different. These folks are wasting time when they could be doing something productive.

Likely benchmaxed.

Decades? Or less than a decade?

Less than a decade with 99.999% certainty.

It will be retired in 5 years.

Claude talks like me. I'm so screwed. I fully anticipate being physically present and verbally saying something and being accused of using AI to say it one day. Nevermind we're in the coffee shop and neither on of us has looked at a screen the entire time. The accusation is coming.

The list goes on for products and services they cloned from western innovation. China didn't get there first in any of the categories you listed. Of course, people would rather spend less than more, disregarding the quality and longevity of the product.

Paying pennies on the dollar for a BYD vehicle sounds great when all you consider is the initial sticker price. The real cost is what happens after you buy the disposable car and own it for a decade.

So yea. Second place is the reality and it is also true for AI models, and the hardware needed to run them.

Also, congratulations on landing a rocket 11 years after the US.

Took long enough.

You must have hibernated for a year. Most modern 27b models can outperform gpt-oss-120b.

Social media is the worst thing we've ever created. The current political state of the world is entirely to blame on it. The misinformation. The deceit. The false impression that everyone's opinion is equal. It's not.

If this is true then the probability of the detection tools flagging completely human generated text as AI generated is non-trivial. Let's say I write a completely original piece and the detection tool says there is a 36% probability it was generated with Claude. What then? Now it's up to the person looking at the score to cast a subjective judgement. Maybe to me, anything over 25% is unacceptable. Maybe to someone else, it must cross over the 50% threshold. This is the problem.

Cognitive surrender.

Agreed. Opus-5 is top tier. I also use GPT Sol and I much prefer the default persona of Opus. GPT Sol is a workhorse though. Both amazing models.
