Yeah, that's the point, right? With tool calling the LLM becomes code. So instead of asking it to write an accounting software, you can hire the LLM to be your accountant.

> the world really has moved on to open models

Don't get me wrong: I'm all for open models, but I think it will get more and more difficult to distil-train them without (legitimate) access to frontier models.

According to your parent comment, even in Sweden, it's 8.7 hours of work, more than a full day.

That's the definition of "value" in a broad, economics sense but I don't think it applies to the parent comment of this thread:

> I'm not sure how I'm supposed to get $200 of value out of personal use!

Yeah. There was a weird Xerox printer bug that swapped digits (turning 6s into 8s) on scanned documents caused by the JBIG2 image format [1].

Obviously this assumes that you can find 4+ extra hours of $50/hr work every month, or you can work 4 hours less. Neither of these assumptions is correct for people who work for a fixed salary.

There are many deals at LowEndBox. Here is a $10/year example (Los Angeles or New York):

Such deals come and go, but there are other hosts with similar pricing:

What you said is correct, but only for a rational person. Note the wording of your parent comment: "it looks like".

Many if not most people will buy the thing for $X, then complain that someone else scored the same item for $X - $100.

> they just want to protect themselves from the German Tank Problem type of analysis

How could you estimate that when they don't let you know your position in the queue (with or without randomisation)?

> I assume management thinks this will lead to better documentation practices and standardized processes

I think employees will also document less, and try not to standardise processes as much as they can as an attempt to improve their job security.

I've never lived in the US. Spent the majority of my adult life in Europe, and the country I currently live in (Australia) has very strict gun laws.

That being said, if I were a police officer I wouldn't rule out the possibility.

> Obviously i want that to apply to everyone not just the rich and famous

Do you really want armed and masked police to break down the doors of people who dox others, disable their cameras, and arrest them while refusing to tell them the charges? Because without these details this would have been a non-story.

I was thinking of the police officers. Why risk your life for such a petty crime?

> When the two civilian dressed masked men entered the apparentment

I think this is very irresponsible. What would happen if the owner was armed and harmed the police thinking that they were criminals?

> Even with the best documentation people will build up knowledge that no one has

I think that's the part management teams are missing. They assume that employees are just human resources and they can replace a senior engineer with a 100% equivalent one when needed.

> they threw this together at the last minute and simply out-sourced it to Persona.

They could have vibe-coded their own verification system that uses DC APIs. It shouldn't take long, assuming that Anthropic still has access to Fable. /s
