This was a good example where a talented engineer worked hand in hand with AI to get the decomp to work.

I think some people are brute forcing it through a lot of agent time and expense, but they used 6.1 Sol Medium, a great but not a top capability AI model+effort.

This matches what I've been hearing regarding talent and experience making a big difference in task speed and cost when using AI. When prices stop being subsidized, this will be a key factor when evaluating engineer performance: "you've used a lot of tokens and don't have much to show for!"

Who knows where this is going to end, but Talent+AI still beats Vibe work by a lot.
