I can't help but notice (yeah, I know, lots of stupid takes start with this) that many articles about vibe coding and AI enablement describe how you can write an agent which will help you vibe-code an application which is wrapping some model to generate even more applications that largely do more of the same.

Nobody is writing a tutorial on how to use ML to make a robot to fold laundry. Instead, it's you spend tokens to spend more tokens to spend even more tokens. At this point, the word "token" starts bearing unwelcome connotations with "tokens" from NFTs and Brave's "BAT" fads.
