- Watch out
- The source provides a broad overview without technical depth on model performance metrics, latency numbers, or specific robotics capabilities compared to prior versions.
The patterns behind this
- Generative UI (Agent-Rendered Interfaces)
- Agentic Context Engineering (Evolving Playbook)
- Agent Registry & Discovery
Each one covers how the technique works, when it earns its cost, and where it breaks.
