For A while I was expecting that MCP will dominate, but we seem to be going in the direction of CLI being more prevalent. Can’t wrap my mind around it.
It stops being interesting, or even sad, after a while. People get stuck in all kinds of places, mentally. Some get unstuck eventually. It’s only sad if you have come to a counter factual belief that it could have gone better.
I went in the opposite direction - how far can I push myself to see multiple facets of a story? That is a wild ride, and it gets progressively more wild.
It’s the diffrence between net present state and the sequence of events the lead to it, aka event sourcing.
There are pros and cons both ways.
NPS is more succinct and devoid of intermediate deviations, thus less likely to throw the agent off target.
ES otoh does contain deviations which might be salient in the future reasoning. If nothing else then to prune approaches that are known to be dead ends, but also fruitful approaches might have use especially when couple with the line of reasoning that lead to their application.
Having gone through encryption export control I came to conclusion that preventing export of technology was never the goal.
By choke-pointing commercial efforts to export cryptographic tech the NSA got a perfect view and control lever of expertise export and transfer.
My hunch is that while deploying An algorithm is easy, deploying a system that is actually secure as a whole end to end requires a lot know how.
Bottom line it’s a bot naive to think that NSA is simultaneously very capable at being an omnipresent spy and is so stupid to not recognize that export controls have obvious holes.
Simpler still, a “minor” bit on the phone, set by parents once. All services must respect the bit in http headers, and app stores should refuse to install certain apps. No need for id check
I imagine that many parent don’t want micromanage their kids apps, this takes care of the problem.
Did you manage to setup a discussion with the agent to reveal such assumptions? Sometimes the shave wrong unstated assumptions when contradicted by evidence, but if we’re taking about a plan for the future the evidence is thin.

Consider that our ability to evaluate quality of the output is falling further behind our ability to produce it. The “right answer” is not the most likely outcome.
