The most significant leap forward in AI isn't about making LLMs faster. It's about giving them permission to be slower. This sounds backward, right? Our entire industry is built on the religion of low latency. We've been trained to believe that speed is the ultimate metric of success. But that model is breaking. We're discovering that LLMs produce their most profound work not through sheer computational speed, but through a process of digital contemplation. When we build systems that allow for iteration, self-correction, and reasoning, we unlock a new level of insight that a rushed, first-pass answer could never achieve. We’ve been trying to apply assembly-line metrics to what is essentially a creative process. It's time for a new definition of "performance" in the age of AI. What does high-performance AI look like to you? #AI #LLMs #Innovation #FutureOfTech #Performance
