I Tested 300+ Models. Then I Killed the Benchmark.

Let It Break — part 1

Tags: #ai #llm #benchmark #postmortem

In May I ran a series called Agent Autopsy. Agents failing — broken packages, forgotten context, cron jobs dying silently — while I was learning what I didn't know I didn't know. Every failure got a post-mortem, because every failure felt like it deserved one.

That series didn't end with a finale. It ended when I stopped caring. Somewhere around part eight, broken things stopped feeling like emergencies. Call it tolerance. Call it resilience. Maybe I just got tired. Probably all three.
