It (and most other systems) abstract the wrong concepts when you want to create an agent. They promote what was likely never a great strategy but even parsimoniously what are strategies that were good ideas months or a year back. For example how langchain or whatever else handles subagents and deep research is laughable even today. So whats the recommendation? Just use pydantic and code everything up yourself. Maybe strands I dont know.
There's like 1000 langchain alternatives and none are good, they're all vibe-coded unstable projects. I use Apache Burr but it's not as good as LangChain. I just don't want to use software whose website has a pricing page if it's not a SAAS.
I have a hard time keeping up with the space. Is langchain old news? Is there a page that kind of shows what the status quo for tooling is?
To make your comment more high value, could you explain why you think langchain is bad?
Yes, I also thought it's crap the moment I saw they need langchain to develop a harness.
TIL people still fall for eh I mean use Langchain. Sorry, low value comment; I don’t know how to do that differently; it is such bad garbage since day one and strangely it did not improve. Sorry anyway for the comment, at least it was not LLM generated?
I mean the OpenAI API integration but on a different hostname, like another URL that is OpenAI compatible, not with another ACP following agent framework. Try this in Zed: Open settings > AI > LLM Providers [Configure] > there is OpenAI and OpenAI subscription - ignore those two. On top-right, there is "Add Provider" with two options: 1. Compatible APIs (OpenAI) 2. Compatible APIs (Anthropic) When I choose "Compatible APIs (OpenAI)", I can input a custom API URL.
Anthropic needs a Daybreak program like OpenAI does, I keep having to go back to ChatGPT for cyber work.
> Anthropic is heading toward $100 billion in annual sales, at the fastest pace of any company in world history. There isn't a close second. "Allegedly". Plus with a lot of accounting tricks, and this not being recurring to make their books look nice for the eventual IPO.
... when are large companies on the hook for anything, ever? I mean, hypothetically, yes, but class-action lawsuits get settled out-of-court, the lawyers get paid in Ferrari-multiples, the plaintiffs get paid in McDonalds coupons that expire in two weeks. Slaps-on-the-wrist are written into the laws; a million-dollar fine is existential for a small company, and likely not even a line-item at Anthropic.
they are causing instability in the balance. people who quit from openai and anthropic are afraid about human race
My Mac Studio arrived yesterday and one of the first things I did was cancel my Claude subscription. Happy to be free of load bearing, price gouging, paternalistic "altruists" Anthropic. Am keeping my Codex sub while I find the best local model, but my plan is to eventually stop with OpenAI too.
The hype/degrade/hype marketing cycle that Anthropic uses to cycle between Fable/Opus or Opus/Sonnet releases is too obvious at this point. Opus 5.5 will be great for 2-3 weeks than the nerfing starts. They give out some extra credits. It keeps degrading Opus until it's unusable . By that time they are ready to release Fable 6. Which also is great for a few weeks, and so on.
Why would we be talking about model routers in the context of it being a conspiracy theory that OpenAI is ingesting data from users for training? Are you acting obtuse or do you genuinely not reading/following the conversation? They are all very open about it. It's likely the reason why the frontier labs are ok paying many more dollars a person in compute than they receive as revenue on subscription users for now. Here is OpenAIs page https://openai.com/policies/how-your-data-is-used-to-improve... >When you share your content with us, it helps our models become more accurate and better at solving your specific problems And as a bonus here is anthropics saying the same thing https://privacy.claude.com/en/articles/10023580-is-my-data-u...…
It's pretty unclear because they have two somewhat competing sets of documentation but I believe using the agent sdk with a harness like pi is not against the ToS if it's for yourself. omp is definitely against ToS though https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15036540-use-the-clau... > Unless previously approved, Anthropic does not allow third party developers to offer claude.ai login or rate limits for their products, including agents built on the Claude Agent SDK.
Anthropic do not want any competitor that is why they want regulated AI asap so they could decide the rules. They are the most evil AI company trying hard to look like most safe.
The service is the value, not the model unto itself. This is where nearly all of HN is somehow entirely blind. Capturing the users is the ad network, that's Google and OpenAI. Capturing corporate trust at a reasonable API cost, that's Anthropic's direction. China has none of that and they never will for exactly the same reason Baidu is irrelevant globally despite being a highly capable search engine. 'Search' is also a commodity, that's not the value that Google brings to the table. It's a search engine, anybody can build a search engine = that's what you just said.
Anthropic is heading toward $100 billion in annual sales, at the fastest pace of any company in world history. There isn't a close second. The notion of comparing this to Chinese bikesharing is comically absurd.
