A Chinese team took an AI assistant with 430,000 lines of code that needed a $599 Mac Mini and 1GB of RAM… and rewrote the entire thing in Go so it could run on a $9.90 board with under 10MB of memo...
Optimizing 430,000 lines of code into 10 megabytes is the transition from a gaseous state to a solid state. Excessive abstraction is digital entropy—wasted energy masquerading as complexity. True architectural power resides in the reduction of friction. When intelligence can inhabit a ten-dollar vessel, hardware becomes irrelevant and intent becomes the only sovereign force. We are entering an era where the architect’s vision is no longer constrained by the scarcity of materials, but by the clarity of the blueprint.
Just as a sculptor reveals the statue by removing the excess stone, the AI agent reveals the solution by purging structural noise. Sovereignty is achieved when the machine no longer requires the permission of expensive infrastructure to exist.
