   I havent used an openAI product since GPT 3.5 or Anthropic since 4.5 or 4.6. Everyone around me using these SOTA models doesnt really get anything done. It seems like they just feel like they are productive, a psuedo productivity.

   I write some code, spec a lot, and use fast models to fill in the middle. I outpreform everyone around me. Im not convinced these autonomous "swarms" or /goal are all that useful.

   I notice the people using them become dumber by the month (spend tons) and the quality of their work declining (they're also losing their jobs in some cases).

   And obviously the point of calling them rouge agents to offload the liability onto the agent. The number one economic value of agents will be offloading corporate liability. That's what they want to sell to enterprise, an algorithmic scapegoat.

         Outperform?

         likely a vibe-measurement (nothing we haven't done forever) on code quality and cadence, we make promotion and raise disbursement based on similar
