The part that scares me the most is that OpenAI researchers who manage this experiments sometimes (according to the HF hack investigation) don't know what agents do.. So they run RL to reinforce this unknown behavior (lying/cheati

It's not that I haven't heard of this, it's the reality that you have these constraints when you build applications on modern infrastructure. And let's face it, most of the applications use this infrastructure with these

100%, but this means we are going to move to stateful APIs on the AI provider's end (like OpenAI already does with Codex and Responses API) to make this work.

Yep, but even 0.006 is quite a big improvement. I'm curious now to test the model on some token-heavy tasks, like code exploration before a coding session, to see whether it will decrease the total cost of the task in the end or not.

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about the cache hit price: $0.003 per million tokens. I have a feeling that the price of 1 million tokens transmitted over the internet is more expensive than cache hit. Are we close to mak

Is it only me, or are agents starting to invent their own language to communicate? It's almost impossible to understand anything from this message board.

Is there any comparison of usage limits for Antigravity plans vs. Codex? I just ran two light tasks on my codebase and got 100% of the weekly limits of a Pro plan blown away. Is Ultra plan any different? Because on Codex it wouldn't af

I'm pretty sure it's a bad idea because each time you connect and disconnect tools, you are hitting a full cache miss on the full context, that will be probably more expensive than having these tools in place from the very beginni

I am using it all day as a main dictation model, and I can say it's the best model in terms of accuracy, latency, and formatting I have ever used.

Sorry everyone, I got a little bit too excited about the release. It's quite a big deal for us. I started Ottex nine months ago with the idea that models will get to the point that they will overcome VC-funded startups, and I think it

Meh... Waiting for OpenAI models without this 5 more days subscription bullshit. It looks like Anthropic baiting people into Max subscriptions before turning the model off. No thank you.

What about request caching? If you swap to a cheaper model mid execution it might cost more that to make multiple requests to the already cached provider?

+1 for Go! it's my go-to language for any new project at the moment. It's simple, idiomatic, has no awaits, fast compile times, static typing, and it is very opinionated, which helps a lot because agents "subconsciously"

What is yours agentic development experience with elixir? I used to like elixir a lot during a pre agentic era, but with coding agents it feels like the language isn't the best choice - slow compile time, weak type system (at least it

Small advice - make one repo “main” and link to it from the website instead of an organisation. I wanted to star the project to track the progress but it feels a bit weird.. Which repo shall I track? Server? Cli? Sounds like a misc repos.

That's really cool! One thing I'm confused with is how to create a shared resources like e.g. a redis server and connect to it from other vms? It looks now quite cumbersome to setup tailscale or connect via ssh between VMS. Also w

There is no cold starts at all. It’s running non-stop. Bunny bills per resource utilization (not provisioned) and since we run backend on Go it consumes like 0.01 CPU and 15mb RAM per idle container and costs pennies.

Anecdotally, I’ve been seeing a lot of weird behavior from Opus when it decides, mid-execution, to switch to a different "simpler" solution, and that really pissed me off. At one point, I carefully designed a spec document, forced

Try ottex.ai - it has an OpenRouter like gateway with most STT models on the market (Gemini, OpenAI, Groq, Deepgram, Mistral, AssemblyAI, Soniox), so you can try them all and choose what works best for you. My favorites are Gemini 3 Flash a
