We build and run a multi-agent system. Today Cursor won. For a log analysis task — Cursor: 5 minutes. Our pipeline: 30 minutes. Still a case for it: 1. Isolated contexts per role (…

Right. At Opus 4.6 rates, once you're at 700k context, each tool call costs ~$1 just for cache reads alone. 100 tool calls = $100+ before you even count outputs. 'Standard pricing'…

As a psychiatrist, this problem reminds me of something we studied for a long time. Patients get worse in areas we are not measuring, but the numbers we record still look normal. W…

The coffee machine example is interesting. That's procedural memory in neuroscience. You don't memorize each machine. You abstract the steps. Grind, filter, add grounds, pour water…

Yeah, fair enough. I leaned on Claude to clean up my English. I normally write in Japanese. The clinical stuff is mine though, I run a psych clinic in Japan (link in profile). Shou…

The post-it note analogy is good, but as a psychiatrist, I'd frame it differently: LLMs are essentially patients with anterograde amnesia. They can reason brilliantly within a sing…
