That's not necessarily true. They can be using it to jumpstart their own desktop app.

I don't see a Muse desktop app, this gives them something they can spin up in a few weeks, not months, with native cloud integration. I'd guess we're going to see a product competing with OpenAi/Anthropic (as far as standalone apps are concerned) by January.

100%. I'm seeing it as a repeat of the VS Code fork wars. Funnily enough, nobody won that war. The paradigm disappeared entirely.

You mean that desktop app is not something I can spin up in days with my tiniest of LLM budgets?

I do not know where people are lost these days. I build ambitious apps with 3x $20 subscriptions. And I live in a village in eastern Himalayas. People are really in a bubble.

LLMs have crushed the idea of "using [another product] to jumpstart" anything. Just build it.
