Spot on, Saurabh. You’ve diagnosed the 'Token Trap' suffocating enterprise AI rollout. This is the modern equivalent of writing a SQL cursor in a loop—instead of just slowing a database, it burns corporate treasuries. When an unsupervised agent runs unoptimized prompts over a massive codebase, token bloat compounds exponentially. The failure isn't the technology, or the brilliant engineers prematurely laid off for 'AI efficiency.' This is a C-suite miscalculation. Replacing highly skilled human intuition with bloated, pay-per-token cloud autocomplete is a massive misallocation of capital. As founders building physical AI systems, this data is a mandate to reject cloud API dependency. The future isn’t paying per-token for generalized cloud reasoning; it’s running purpose-built inference locally at the physical edge (like Apple Silicon) to permanently drop variable token costs to zero. AI was never cheap, unsupervised labor—it is highly leveraged infrastructure. Treat it like an intern and the API bill will bankrupt you. Architect it as a localized power tool for human domain experts, and it changes the world.

Exactly! Also like the Pope writes in his Enzyklika: it’s about humanity and AI. We have to ensure that ethics and not money is the driver of the use and development of AI.🤖❤️

I’m Jewish and I’d still love to meet Pope Leo.

What stood out to me most in this piece is the idea that the real challenge is not AI itself, but institutional ambiguity around what kinds of thinking, struggle, and cognitive engagement we are actually trying to preserve. That feels increasingly important. When institutions focus primarily on outputs without developing shared clarity around process, authorship, reflection, and demonstrated understanding, it becomes much harder to distinguish between genuine learning and the appearance of learning. I especially appreciated the point that some friction is actually the point. In many ways, the struggle to articulate, wrestle with uncertainty, and work through partial understanding is where meaningful learning often happens. Thought-provoking piece.

Gonna try it out is it in gartner

Thanks for sharing!

The Tanstack shoe app is a good resource. Thanks.

Thanks for sharing! I recently started one of the Columbia courses, will keep these as my reference for the assignments.

This is pretty much true of every for-profit company, and some non-profits, too. It's obviously true of oil companies, pharma, chemical/pesticide/herbicide companies, manufacturers, lumber, mining, etc. So much harm has been caused before regulation begins, and they continue to unleash powerful forces, allowing them to remain largely unrestrained. Nothing's changing. Certainly nothing's changing due to these comments.

every time I see these posts about how an AI tool can work on its own for hours and produce something great I have to laugh. In my experience, it always makes some very bad decisions and needs a lot of hand holding. If you car about the result, you have to provide a lot more than a one page input, just like human developers. AI is a great accelerator, but it still requires a lot of review from a human developer. They simply have no common sense

Everyone who cares needs to create a sovereign mesh intelligence network so that they dont find themselves confined in this shrodingers sickness.

As a non-Catholic: your new Pope continues to impress me.

Matthew, this is an important moment. AI is no longer just technical or regulatory. It is moral and spiritual. At Unshaken Voice Productions, ethical AI must be people-first, serving people, and accountable before God. Not profit over people. Not people as products. Not intelligence detached from conscience. Our foundation is Scripture alone. Human beings are made in God’s image. A machine may calculate, imitate, generate, and optimize, but it cannot bear God’s image, repent, worship, love sacrificially, discern sin, or answer before the Lord. That is why “alignment” is not enough until we ask: aligned to what truth, whose moral order, and what vision of humanity? The danger is not only that AI may become powerful. It is that humanity may surrender truth, conscience, responsibility, and moral imagination to tools built without fear of God or love of neighbor. But I am not hopeless. The Lord has always preserved a remnant and equipped His servants for each generation’s battles. The tools and kingdoms change, but the Lord does not. We must examine what AI can do, and what it is doing to the human spirit. Those building in this space must do so with humility, courage, and discernment. Technology is not Lord. Christ is.

$500 to $2,000 per engineer per month is not a lot of money, and at least in my case -- totally worth it.

Stop debating and start creating is the real future. Debating creates "noise".

The most famous priest/bishop in the US takes a stand contrary to the Pope against the simplicity of open borders and stop demonizing the president. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/exclusive-video-bishop-barron-blasts-catholic-left-demonization-trump-amid-child-trafficking-crisis?fbclid=IwY2xjawSEV11leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEe8fWHP_NeU2DK9lZ4I_erGnhHX_x6KftsDQTQiSENJZihtX_YMvpcuVJyqn4_aem_VdjmOpjVyYUndJWIE_KZCQ

I like Pope Leo but not his comments about AI.

Catholicism or Christianity can't speak to morality because both are frauds, just like other religions. The law of reality is PRECISELY AND ONLY, "Do only that, which would be acceptable to all," and you will not find this argument in any of the religious texts: that is, no religious text says that all laws and rules of the world ought to be replaced with a single law, "Do only that, which would be acceptable to all," by which all must live and be judged in the court of law. So, since each of the religions teaches something else, it follows that they are frauds, and hence, can't speak to morality. Here's a 2-prong proof that Jesus was a charlatan and hence Christianity is a fraud:
