I had no idea WebVoyager only spanned 15 websites lol... the 452 figure you have still seems a little low though - do you have plans to expand it? It seems like you'd want as many sites as possible to improve the real-world accuracy of agents due to the long tail nature of website traffic

I used to doubt the usefulness of most mcp servers but with something as powerful as general-purpose browser use this makes a lot of sense. I would rather use something more open like this than a completely proprietary browser agent like chatgpt's. Great work!

Any issues or things you wish you had known with your current Parallels/Ubuntu set up? Asking since I've been considering doing the same thing

I wonder how soon we'll just be rendering real-time AI avatars of ourselves that are traced by our facial movements. Don't have to worry about fixing your hair or lighting or wearing nice clothes; just render whatever looks most appealing with a model.

How is this even enforced? Don't you have plausible deniability by claiming you just wanted to send high entropy random noise?

I've always wondered what the economic implications of longer lifespans are. It seems like this is one of them-- imagine we have 80+ year mortgages once human life expectancy reaches 150 years.

I was just thinking about how a mobile client for an RDB would be cool to try for tracking workouts. There are plenty of CRUD apps for this but there is always some feature missing, whereas here you could customize to your delight.

I wonder what other apps are just RDB wrappers that could almost be substituted with something like this.

Thanks for sharing!

We could have smartphones that are essentially streaming their UIs from a cloud instance that's running the actual OS/rendering for the device.

That approach would allow for thinner, cheaper devices with longer battery lives since their hardware is only responsible for processing the video stream from the cloud and rendering it on a screen.

Perhaps it's not a direct result of 1TB/s but such internet speeds would likely have the second order effects of providing extremely robust streaming infrastructure that enables such a use case.

Reminds me of how the mathematician behind DP, Richard Bellman, purposely chose the name "Dynamic Programming" because it sounded impressive and non-mathematical so that he'd be more likely to get government funding.
