The hot dog theory of AGI makes a weird kind of sense

I've seen enough black-box systems to appreciate when someone says 'keep it simple.' In air traffic control, the best procedures were the ones that stripped away the noise until only the essential signals remained. If DeepSeek is building AGI like a Costco hot dog—cheap, reliable, no frills—that might actually be smarter than chasing the 4.99 combo meal.
