                What it could not do

                • Camp AI CRM does not treat unverified information as fact; weak evidence becomes a suggestion that a human must settle. — The CRM agent reports only what its tools observe and does not guess about people.
                • Swiftlet's 80B Qwen model requires about 4.3 GB of RAM, while the 35B model is the one stated to fit on an iPhone. — The runtime streams routed experts from storage to run the models on Apple devices.
                • MAGI-2 Preview requires eight Nvidia Hopper GPUs. — The model generates a 10-second audio-video clip through a low-resolution pass and a 1080p refinement pass.
                • Agent Substrate is described as early. — It runs agent-like workloads on Kubernetes and is framework agnostic across ADK, LangChain, Claude Code, and MCP.
