After all, we already have safe conccurent edits, etc via regular git tooling

To me it this seems a bit backwards looking. Increasingly code review is more on verifying the functional requirements, and less about reading every line an agent has written (or watching it write those lines live)

Haha

Even for like token efficiency it could make sense - like imagine if the representation were more compact

Agents acn already translate languages quite well. It doesn't seem crazy that they could work and think in a model specific language, and then translate back to English or something for the user

If your script is complex enough to need a higher level language you might as well just switch to python

it's impossible to _try_ it out on release!

it's not on their codex subscription, or the web/mobile chatgpt interfaces, or aws bedrock, etc. I just cant find a working endpoint with the latest model after they announce

Each thought is just worth so much more
