There's something beautifully absurd, almost tragically bureaucratic, about the whole grotesque Rube Goldberg-esque setup we have here. We've created a system where natural language gets translated into JSON RPC requests, which get routed through edge networks to serverless functions across the globe, which spin up Linux hypervisors to isolate the runtime, which execute Python code that dispatches enormous attention matrix multiplications on 5nm etched silicon GPUs performing billions of floating point operations per second, which return results that get packaged into JSON responses that get translated back into natural language just to add two integers, which is otherwise a single CPU instruction. It's like using a symphony orchestra, three circus troupes, six carrier pigeons, and a nuclear reactor to butter a single piece of toast.

He's not wrong.
