Models will keep getting better, context windows will keep expanding, and per-token costs will keep falling, but none of this changes the fundamental engineering challenge of building systems that act correctly when no one is watching.

UnverifiedModels will get better, context windows will expand, and cost per token will fall, but these do not change the fundamental engineering challenge: building trustworthy systems that behave correctly when you are not watching.79% similarUnverifiedThe gains brought by customized harnesses gradually diminish as the capabilities of the underlying model improve, a phenomenon known as framework obsolescence.71% similarUnverifiedThe refinement solution improved degradation control, but contrast still worsens over time and dissolve artifacts still appear in the background, meaning the problem has not been fully resolved.71% similarUnverifiedFor projects in the mature stage, stability and controllability are more important than using the latest model.70% similarVerifiedWhen evaluating whether to upgrade to a more capable model, beyond absolute capability improvements, one should also focus on end-to-end efficiency and cost changes, as a more expensive advanced model may achieve a net reduction in overall cost by reducing the number of calls.70% similar
