It might be not that bad. “Good enough” open-weight models are almost there, the focus may shift to agentic workflows and effective prompting. The lifecycle of a model chip will be comparable to smartphones, getting longer and longer, with orchestration software being responsible for faster innovation cycles.

"Good enough" open weights models were "almost there" since 2022.

I distrust the notion. The bar of "good enough" seems to be bolted to "like today's frontier models", and frontier model performance only ever goes up.
