Palihapitiya claims modern harness plus open model crushes token consumption while maintaining performance
“A modern harness + open model will crush your token consumption but keep your performance. https://t.co/pcHU8rZY35”
Palihapitiya dismisses latency concerns for harness overhead, noting it is not measured in days over long tasks
“@janstevens Why does that matter? The latency, to the extent there is any, isn’t in months…and unlikely even days over long horizon tasks.”
Palihapitiya confirms Claude wrapped in Software Factory is 1.4x cheaper and 1.5x faster, open models 16.4x cheaper
“This is accurate. That said, we are currently working through a rigorous experiment testing closed and open models with and without Software Factory. Early data is super fascinating and backs up the experiment below. https://t.co/vqWV7ISaeX”
Palihapitiya says third-party harness plus model interchangeability changes enterprise risk profile
“This is a really good development. As model costs converge, the next likely step will be the use of independent 3rd party harnesses/control planes (8090 Software Factory, Palantir, Nous’ Hermes etc). A 3rd party harness + the ability to use any model quasi-interchangeably is https://t.co/GtB9aXKN3d”
