Obsidian creator: make models replaceable cogs, don't chase the latest LLM
dSebastien · x · 2026-11-11
Obsidian creator kepano argues that reacting to whatever the latest models are stuck on is "too schizophrenic" — you end up working in the models' shadow. Better to decide with a longer-term view, following what's right for your product, taste and brand.
dSebastien adds: make models "a cog in your system, not THE cog" — models exist to be replaced, and over-fitting to any given one is pointless given the pace of evolution.
