sam: local inference is a terrible allocation of scarce resources
“a lot of people want local inference, and somehow they assume that the problem is solved now because we have open-source models, we're going to be able to run them on our computers, and so we're not going to need all the stuff in the data centre

you want maximum utilisation in the cloud if you're trying to deal with this very supply-constrained environment
somehow many people's intuition is the opposite of that”

They're using Servo's AI agent to find, analyze, and explain support across multiple ERP systems.
Fewer requests for the team. More time spent running the business.

The experiment with the auditors is going swimmingly.
Notably, they have *not asked our client for any materials yet*
So far 100% of the audit is self-serve.
My son is on the spectrum, and not only does Galaxy Gas completely calm him down during sensory overload, but it's even given him the ability to socialize with other kids for the first time in his life.
