I’ve built lots of pre-LLM data processing pipelines like this and the more I read people putting “agents” into this kind of context the less they resemble agents like the Anthropi…

Isn’t this an arbitrage opportunity? Offer to pay a fraction of the cost per token but accept that your tokens will only be processed when the batch window isn’t big enough, then r…

What kind of customers are using this API? I’ve had many similar thoughts but I get hung up on the idea that customers are “developers” from a marketing standpoint, because those d…

If I’m understanding this correctly, if you set off one bomb the explosion travels at a certain speed, but if you put a bunch of bombs in a circle and set them off one at a time, t…
