If you want to know what agents do these days: this took around 30-60 minutes of active prompting max. It’s a mobile iOS app that runs Python via WASM, ships ruff and ty, has a debugger and iCloud integration including a UI library inspired by solid and turtle. And a REPL.

Intelligence and consiousness have no hard definition. Same for 'truth'. Also we do not understand why LLMs work the way they do. That all makes a discussion about these topics very complicated. I hear a lot of opinions and ad hominem attacks but that might be the current state of (human) minds.

Trump: "I spoke to Zelenskyy, I said, 'You got to take it easy on the refineries as much as you can.' Because we're causing a world problem." First of all, the right thing to do is demanding that Russia end its invasion, rather than asking Ukraine to stop defending itself.

Scatter plot titled "Average of 4 workflows: accuracy vs cost" comparing AI models from TypeSafe, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Fireworks across accuracy (y-axis, 40% to 80%) and cost per workflow in USD on a logarithmic scale (x-axis, $0.0001 to $1).
Data points are split into two categories: workflows (diamonds) and single prompts (circles). A frontier line highlights the most efficient workflow models—where no point is both cheaper and more accurate—connecting Jev (TypeSafe) at $0.0002 and 68% accuracy, luna (OpenAI) at $0.002 and 67% accuracy, terra (OpenAI) at $0.04 and 68% accuracy, and sol (OpenAI) at the top accuracy of 74% for $0.08. Single prompts (circles) and Anthropic models (opus 5, sonnet 5, haiku 4.5) sit below the frontier line, indicating higher cost for equivalent or lower accuracy.
