Inspired by @TamasNo1's $8 ECS cluster https://t.co/nFZU9ti5HR, I built a single-node ECS using Spot instance. @awscdk AWS CDK code here: https://t.co/mhAW86QCHZ This will provide a ~$4-5 ECS cluster in us-east-2. Next up: 2-node ECS with haproxy + SSL. @pahudnet @nathankpeck.

Our database and data engineering expert @yoniebans made some major improvements to the way sessions are stored and accessed.

This will save something like 20-40% of the disk space used by Hermes Agent to operate, speed up session loading, and overall makes the codebase cleaner, simpler, and better architected!

`hermes update` to access early or wait for the next major release :)

Tons of headlines are declaring a decrease in ChatGPT usage

Some even venturing to question if generative AI is a fad

I'm spending 80+ hours a week working on this problem. And let me tell you the actual issue --

AI still has a major usability problem.

Most people are still grappling with how to leverage tools like ChatGPT/LLMs/Generative AI.

Everyone's waiting for someone to tell them some secret killer use case. (which btw is extremely extremely person- and work-dependent)

And we're left with a lot of people questioning the practicality.

But these clickbait articles fail to name the underlying issue:

It's not that these tools are "not useful"...
They actually just have major usability problems.

I've always thought that when a product becomes labeled as a 'skill' on resumes, it's actually highlighting limitations in usability. Photoshop, Excel, Facebook Ads Manager—all are skills.

Today, "AI adoption" is most definitely a skill.

It probably takes 100+ hours to hit the tipping point where it becomes 2nd nature to integrate it into your daily work and life.

Even though ChatGPT made AI incredibly accessible, there's still a significant ramp up period to where the real value is.

To find your breakthrough use cases, you're going to either have to put in the work... or wait until it's so mainstream and the usability is more solved.

(Note: at that point, there's less of an advantage)

I think ChatGPT et al has 2x'd at least the pace of building and operating our business. (And I'm working on getting it to 3-4x)

But that takes work. And until the usability problem is solved, it will still be a skill.
