I’ve been thinking about this but I’m not sold on any of the arguments presented

I was a swing vote and you lost my support in the first debate

What I care most about is benchmarks. I see AI rewriting its harnesses for the hardware it’s on and getting faster tokens/sec, and I can see that as the future. I think, okay we can go deeper

Nothing in this article addressed results, its just breaking every known convention in the scariest and most inconvenient way possible while claiming that the attack surface is smaller when its actually unknown with now limited debugging capability

I could overlook that if I got more access to RAM this way and wildly improved performance
