The entire market is focused on productivity ones that all have the same feature set, no real originality in the offerings IMHO.
There are a lot of low hanging fruit that can be tackled. From helping people stay focused to managing household schedules. I honestly don't even think the product has to be SaSS, a 16GB VRAM GPU, or a well equipped MacBook, can do everything with locally.
> It seems to me that "vibe checks" for how smart a model feels are easily gameable by making it have a better personality.
I don't buy that at all, most of my use cases don't involve model's personality, if anything I usually instruct to skip any commentary and give the result excepted only. I'm sure most people using AI models seriously would agree.
> My guess is that it's most of the reason Sonnet 3.5.1 was so beloved. Its personality was made much more appealing, compared to e. g. OpenAI's corporate drones.
I would actually guess it's mostly because it was good at code, which doesn't involve much personnality
Because htmx is limited in scope. And it's encouraged to use JS for the parts of your app that would benefit from it. But it's encouraged to do so in a way that fits with web standards. Eg https://dev.to/yawaramin/handling-form-errors-in-htmx-3ncg
HTMX abstracts functionality into pseudo-HTML attributes, allowing you to handle tasks like event binding and DOM/content manipulation that would typically require JavaScript. By using HTMX, you primarily focus on learning HTML and its attributes, with minimal need to learn JavaScript.
HTMX allows you to learn the very basics: the HTML which is almost verbatim turned into DOM which the browser renders. It's the FE. Everything else is layers upon layers of abstraction which ultimately compile down to the DOM representation of HTML.
...or to put it differently, quoting HTMX's author: using HTTP to transfer HTML? How queer!
If it's proven to be a real issue, we might expect to see models trained on a lot of synthetic data with less knowledge but highly capable to reason, and other models less capable to reason but with large knowledge.
