I also don’t think our generation will see actual AGI, but imo the hard "intelligence“ part isn’t needed as we can use our intelligence. Using it as a tool will hopefully lead to plenty of cool things in the future.
If this is sonoma-dusk that was on preview on openrouter, it's pretty cool. I've tested it with some code reverse engineering tasks, and it is at or above gpt5-mini level, while being faster. Works well till about 110-130k tokens tasks, then it gets the case of "getthereitis" and finishes the task even if not all constraints are met (i.e. will say I've solved x/400 tests, the rest can be done later)
Not sure if I would follow that point about usability. For me usability means also how usable it is to new people. How usable is the language to a foreign person compared to e.g. Python, Go or even Java - or if you want to mention functional languages like F#?
But besides that I am totally on your side, usability is great.
Have you actually contributed to the Go standard library?
Yes, there are people who don't work for Google and can +2 on changes, but you still need 2 Google employees to at least +1 on your change before it can be submitted. This is mentioned in the Contribution Guide [0] and is enforced by Gerrit.
> Finally, to be submitted, a change must have the involvement of two Google employees, either as the uploader of the change or as a reviewer voting at least Code-Review +1. This requirement is for compliance and supply chain security reasons.
