how active do you think those are

And it's more like 100k spend. Fable 5.1 is expensive and Theo used to use it for everything.

Yup exactly this. At work, we have a skill that spins up an adversarial review with a few models and they build consensus. That *EATS* tokens.

Don't know these two, do they build anything useful? FYI that "central agent, local hands" idea you and @okami.mom were talking about... I built it. github.com/jasoncarreir...

Cartesian productivity theater

oh interesting. i remember a few months back everyone was sharing the numbers and i feel like people were showing roughly 5k in tokens. i mean idfk what he is doing either way, but would be way more atrocious if it was 25-30k in spend lol

it varies by model i think, i had a few rogue sonnet 5 agents run thousands of "echo waiting" calls in an unattended workflow and the session came out to $2300 but only ate a third of my 20x weekly usage

Best case, a lot of coke

Back in my day (2022) we made chat apps by hand with websockets and stuff

he does the same thing over and over again. he has projects that he’s gotten to “90%” 3+ times and just redoes the same projects when the new models come out. i listen to theo when it comes to model comparisons, but not on how to be a productive engineer
