Cue the "we need to regulate open-weight" pearl clutching. "the costs of some advanced AI tasks such as coding fell by as much as 56% while the quality of the AI’s performance fell just 2%, Austin said." archive.is/2026.08.21-0...

Austin said he’s found that open source models are “just as good or better” than older models sold by the likes of Anthropic and OpenAI. For instance, AT&T’s software developers still rely on cutting-edge models for complex tasks like generating code, but can use cheaper open source models for less intense tasks like generating summaries of previously submitted code, he said. “We expect that to just keep getting better going forward.”

AT&T also has gotten savings from using so-called model routers that automatically route employees’ queries to cheaper models based on the complexity of the task. After the company began using router provider LiteLLM, the costs of some advanced AI tasks such as coding fell by as much as 56% while the quality of the AI’s performance fell just 2%, Austin said.

Such a quotable book. #solarpunk #walkaway

"“Look, there are as many walkaway philosophies as there are walkaways, but mine is, ‘the stories you tell come true.’ If you believe everyone is untrustworthy, you’ll build that into your systems so that even the best people have to act like the worst people to get anything done. If you assume people are okay, you live a much happier life.”" (Cory Doctorow, Walkaway)

The seemingly disconnected threads between sustainable local farming and decentralized tech are hand-in-glove: technology that connects people locally with meeting their most important needs, and that includes sustainably sourced food. Open and decentralized tech can help empower regenerative farms!
