There is something to say about the power of brute force approaches. Right now scaling multi agent is seemingly what is becoming the next important axis, though very strongly constrained by quality of communication protocol and compute. Even if one model is not strong enough individually, more models and more attempts as well as differing opinions may nudge the models into a better solution basins.
Kind of an extension of the effect where you talk to a model, it is super confident (but wrong), you correct it not directly but perhaps with a question and asking it to clarify. This then in turn leads to a better approach overall.
