I am wondering more and more if this becomes true as these smaller models take off. I might be old fashioned but I have yet to crack the workflows some of the hype people spout like Claude codes Boris where he and others talk about running hundreds of agents overnight.
I have still found the sweet spot for me is using LLMs but I am still in the drivers seat.
Running hundreds of agents overnight is almost certainly 99 percent waste.
That's because for some of these folks, the cost of the tokens doesn't have to match the value of the output; the hype from the story is all they need.
Normal people have to produce something of value from that spend. So starting 100 agents and then waking up to something cool but useless just means you spent a few thousand dollars and created nothing of value............
