Aha, I haven't looked into such aspects much - I'm "output" driven. But its good to know about that, if I feel like trying it- thanks.

For me, Opus 5.5 has been consistently much better than Fable 5.1- in all aspects, but especially reasoning and "attention span"

What is stopping Anthropic, Google etc from essentially building models that completely replace the concept of code?

You point a model to an API and get a fully working UI right away. I don’t mean an agent CODED the UI - I mean the model inferred it from its training data and renders it to you “live”

Or the other way around? You serve it a UI- and it acts as the backend etc? State and persistence becomes an issue, but the model could freeze things into deterministic structures (specific parts become -just in time-frozen, for example when data needs to be saved)

Maybe this is old news already- but the consequences are kind of mind blowing

I've tried hard to pin down why I appreciate listening on some devices more than others - and your comment made me realize that I'm the kind of person that actually appreciates "more" spatial information rather than the "dry signal" - to the point where I made my own app to do that with all my audio sources (surraura.com). For some reason it helps my ADHD, and lets me focus easier.

Money, Agency, Autonomy. I fully agree, but I imagine (dread?) a future where there are private/gatekept models that are only accessible for those with compute and/or wealth and/or access.

Edit: I also didn't mean that the compute would be restricted - I meant what you describe, to offer them the compute.

Wouldn't it be possible, that at some point in time, offering compute or intelligence would be considered a valuable form of altruism? And we're just seeing the first few baby steps of that?

Someone ultra wealthy person owns a whole data center, and offers 10% of the capacity for helping "nature and animals"? Agents research new potential medicines for animals, do climate change studies etc etc?

Sure, this experiment is probably bound to fail because agents have no "real" way to provide income for themselves at this time, and its not intelligent enough o doesn't have enough scale, but as an experiment of what might become a common reality in a few years I consider it interesting.

Is this at all possible to run locally on a MacBook pro m5 (48gb ram)? What kind of performance could I expect? Or would you run this somewhere in the cloud? What HW / which provider would you choose (single user for exploration only)

This is really cool! Are you using something like JEV for this? Where does the flights data come from?
