i'm... not sure? This assumes ~stagnation in task-possibility. We've had ~exponential progress for like 3+ years now; I'd have never dreamed the tooling I hammer daily would exist in my lifetime just.. 3? years ago. And it's improving daily.

Maybe Open will win, maybe Closed will keep pushing the envelope. The world here is raw enough i don't think anyone can make any significant claim other than 'holy shit this is useful and moving Fast'.
