“Everyone was told, throw your hormones in the garbage. This is dangerous. What was crazy is those people who were prescribing hormone therapy, who were looking around saying, I don't understand. My patients aren't dying of heart disease, they're not getting extra breast cancers. Like this doesn't make any sense.

「我们发现了一个出人意料的成功路径:别搞 swarm,什么都别搞,就用一个 Devin。它自己管理上下文,就让它一直跑下去,给它一些疯狂的任务。我们让它去重建一个类似 Windows 的操作系统。是的。它真的做成了——就是靠跑得够久。」
