I still just pay $100/mo for Claude. Use the CC extension in VSCode. I’m actively investigating various ways of getting a Hermes Agent going on my homelab with either a local model, Openrouter ZDR models, or both but I’m unlikely to pull the trigger on that yet. I would never use Muse, Grok Bot, etc as a personal agent.
Right, but then you also have to hire people that can maintain & configure that rack, think about how many requests you'll be able to serve with that one rack in the first place (maybe you'll need two? or three?), etc.
There are very few companies in the world where this would be a straightforward decision.
If you ever wonder why Anthropic is going all out to try and fearmonger their way to an open weights ban, this graph will provide all the answer you need.
Unfortunately for it to be sustainable it would need to be an LLM with VRAM usage probably under a couple gigs max so it can run locally on the gaming PC. That said it may well be better than current AI in strategy games.
Yes, the insane hardware requirements make it totally impractical - that's why I say "turn based" because turn based games would at least allow for a practical gameplay experience even with remote LLM APIs.
I bet a small 1B model trained solely on how to play the strategy game would do better than current AI solutions for these games and that would probably be able to run even on integrated GPUs.
After everything in the past six months do we really think that humans are better than coding agents at writing secure code?! This announcement honestly makes me more confident not less in their products.
The lump of labor fallacy is a fallacy not real. Phrased another way, demand for software is more or less infinite so if coding agents make everyone a 10x engineer eventually we will easily find use for 10x more software.
> demand for software is more or less infinite so if coding agents make everyone a 10x engineer eventually we will easily find use for 10x more software.
Sure, but that’s not infinite. It’s always a zero sum game: if someone is playing my game then they're not playing yours (even if someone else might be)
Ah, so this one of the reasons why in 2026 every single app / software suite / et al takes 2+ seconds to load, is slow and buggy, and overall a pain to use.
Since software is in some ways information + machine a near infinite amount can be created. I'm not sure I want to live in that world.
It’s not a 0day it’s now 5 days and counting since disclosure. Nobody is gaining value sitting on an exploit for a vulnerability which is being actively patched.
It is a price signal. They expect to lose the money they want to show that nobody has an automated swarm just pwning every server running PHP connected to the internet. At least not yet, on day 5 and counting.
