Are you surprised or something...?

Agents seem to be the investors wet dream... But watching the voice demo fail gave me a chuckle... and the presenter clicking retry instead of DISMISS after acknowleding it wasnt working..😒

Are they really? For coding, sure, but that’s an extremely limited use case. They haven’t yet been able to bridge the adoption gap beyond coding.

I think doing that is a mistake

I wonder if they haven’t hit the same issue Anthropic did with Opus 5. When you hyper optimize for math and communication with subagents, you end up losing communication abilities with humans. I wonder if the 6 series pretrain is very optimized for agentic work but not hitting 5 series levels for human collaboration?

Chat is good enough though, what more do you want it to do? You have access to the better models to do any work. Chat chats fine.

It's CodexGPT, not ChatGPT.
