Agentic Era of AI
- The era of agentic software is beginning, shifting from models to agents.
- This Sequoia Capital piece explains the technical and business implications of this change.
Strawberry's Reasoning
- OpenAI's Strawberry model demonstrates true general reasoning capabilities using inference time compute.
- This allows the model to "stop and think" before responding, leading to improved reasoning abilities.
Application Layer Opportunity
- Foundation models are powerful but messy, creating opportunities in the application layer.
- Enterprises struggle with black boxes and consumers need guidance, making refined applications crucial.
