Where contributors are the audience, yes. For things like libraries, I care about those things only if I run into a bug, and have enough resources to attempt a fix.

It can help even when using the library and not contributing. It helps you to use the api better imo, because usually the abstraction is not perfect and having even a general sense of how the sausage is made will prevent you from falling victim to gotchas. But then on the downside it lowers the mystique of the library. Some coders prefer to be magicians.

It is. README is for humans, AGENTS / etc is for LLMs.

Document how to use and install your tool in the readme.

Document how to compile, test, architecture decisions, coding standards, repository structure etc in the agents doc.

Compile, test, architecture would be very welcome in the readme too Id wager

> The new team has discussed making Meta’s next A.I. model “closed,” which would be a major departure from the company’s longtime philosophy of “open sourcing” its models. A closed model keeps its underlying code secret, while an open-source A.I. model can be built upon by other developers.

Gotta assume this was the plan all along. And would have been plan A if they weren't caught flat footed by chatgpt

This is very interesting, my thinking has been along these same lines. This covers some of the more complicated engineering tasks required to pave the way for LLMs to automate diverse tasks with much higher accuracy and lower cost. Building the ultimate RPA as it were.

The whole Internet is like this now--it's a victim of its own success. "Dead Internet Theory" is correct, I believe. There must be some kind of sociological term for what happens with popular websites that become victims of their own success, like Craigslist, EBay, Facebook, all of them follow the same predictable pattern. When they are small and unknown, they are useless. Then they hit some critical mass and a wave of new adopters show up and it's amazing--for awhile--then as the inevitable grifters and thieves arrive, the whole thing becomes a turd of astronomical proportions. Then the good people disappear, leaving only the trash behind.

The problem of evil. The grifters and thieves always show up, late but inevitably, to the party. The game needs a patch to potentially fix though it's unclear what that patch would be and what could be it's unintended side effects

This reminds me of Elon Musk's recent claims on the future of gaming:

    This – but in real-time – is the future of gaming and all media

Just don't slap a release year on this future and I'll be compelled to agree

Model capability is absolutely the main constraint.

if you want your app to be automated wouldn't you just publish your api and make that readily available? I understand the need for agentic UI navigation but obviously an api is still easier and less intensive right. The problem is that it isn't always available, and there ui agents can circumvent that. But you want to embrace the automation of your app so.. just work on your API? You can put an invisible node in your UI to tell agents to stop wasting compute and use the api.
