Agreed. If the resource usage can be optimized further, it'll be feasible to train specialist models both on-prem and from scratch. That would sidestep the liability and privacy issues of current cloud-based offerings. Google's se

TL;DR: It looks like a convenient and explainable starting point for the proof-of-concept. Manually combining specialist variants is a known technique. This paper automates it with a router component which mixes 2 sub-models at any given ti

There's another elephant in the room: can we use this to distribute tickets to a team effectively? I can see it being useful any time there are issues nobody wants to handle. Backlog grooming seems to stand out as a prime use case.

If you can spare extra pixels, Tom Thumb (3x5) [1] is more legible. The upper case M and N are somewhat hard to distinguish without context, but it's the only major flaw compared to this one. Tom Thumb is also Public Domain (CC0). [1]

Why only the files edited by a human? What about edge cases where changes made by a program, such as a linter or auto-formatter? Those aren't guaranteed to be integrated into an IDE.
