       I actually think running agents inside nix derivations is not a terrible idea.

       @arianvpYes.Of course we'd eventually want to teach Nix to write the inputs and outputs for our "ai" derivations to tmpfs rather than to disk (or better yet come up with a way to keep them on the GPU).We'd maybe want to be able to read partial outputs before the writing is done? This is compatible at least with input-addressing? Otherwise some kind of pipelining for nominally separate derivations might suffice.For audio&vision would be nice to read partial inplts too
