@AnooragSunkari yes true, prices in India have also dropped slightly but they are still expensive, Interesting times ahead, individuals will have a good setup to experiment and build for small small use cases
New Princeton paper finds that combining specialized agents from many developers can beat any single developer's general agent, with GAIA accuracy reaching 70%.
Today most agentic systems are built and controlled by 1 developer, so each team rebuilds the same basic skills. The authors argue this limits scale.
They simulated populations of developers with LLM agents that build agents under a fixed budget, then compared lone systems with a multi-developer system. The multi-developer system splits each task and routes the parts to different developers' agents.
On GAIA with the same total development budget, specialists that each scored at most 35% alone reached 70% together. That is 12 points above the median general agent, while on web-search-only SealQA the combined system did worse at higher cost.
Build agents to fill gaps in shared systems, since an agent scoring 19% alone lifted a combined system from 40% to 53%.
