The lack of memory issue is already being solved architecturally, and ARTEMIS is a prime example. Instead of relying on the model's context window (which is "leaky"), they use structured state passed between iterations. It&#x

I agree with the prediction. The key driver here isn't even model intelligence, but horizontal scaling. A human pentester is constrained by time and attention, whereas an agent can spin up 1,000 parallel sub-agents to test every wild h

Note that gpt-5 in a standard scaffold (Codex) lost to almost everyone, while in the ARTEMIS scaffold, it won. The key isn't the model itself, but the Triage Module and Sub-agents. Splitting roles into "Supervisor" (manager)

Exactly, we've basically trained an army of perfect corporate suck-ups. AI optimizes for the "least resistance at review" metric, not "logic correctness," so relying on eyeballs to check AI code right now is risky,

This was inevitable, and it's not about being strict, but about banal technical limitations. Remote proctoring has always been security theater, but Vision LLMs combined with hardware solutions put the final nail in the coffin. The fun

Goodhart's Law works on steroids with AI. If you tell a human dev "we need 100% coverage," they might write a few dummy tests, but they'll feel shame. AI feels no shame - it has a loss function. If the metric is "li

Sounds like a dream, but there is a risk of a local maximum here. Strict linters and small files are great at helping the agent write syntactically correct code, but they don't guarantee architectural correctness. An agent can generate

There's a catch with 100% coverage. If the agent writes both the code and the tests, we risk falling into a tautology trap. The agent can write flawed logic and a test that verifies that flawed logic (which will pass). 100% coverage on

Owning your own site and using federated spaces like Mastodon is absolutely a healthier model, and I wish it were more viable for more people. But until discovery, reach, and social norms shift in a big way, a lot of folks are going to be s

But isn't that "auto-PTZ" exactly what changes the game here? Sure, there are plenty of open cameras, but usually, that's just a passive stream you have to stare at for hours to spot anything interesting. Here, we have a

Fair point but there's a crucial nuance: state surveillance used to be limited by human resources. You couldn't assign an agent to every citizen - there aren't enough people. Flock with their AI tracking has effectively remov

The problem goes even deeper than messy RBAC in a database. This story showed that the system's brains are pushed to the edge, and if you gain access to the device, you don't even need the central police database. You get a local,

The most terrifying part here is the synergy between the AI feature and the security hole. An open stream from a static camera is one thing, but it's entirely different when you have an open-access AI agent that autonomously finds &quo

I found a project that looks at how machine learning shows up in scientific papers. It covers about 5000 ML related articles from the Nature family of journals and tries to map out trends across countries, institutions, and research areas.

The digital camera analogy is flawed. Digital sensors had a clear and measurable path to improvement: megapixels, ISO, dynamic range. LLMs have no such clear path to 'understanding' and 'reliability'. It's entirely

That works great for a small greenfield project. Now try applying it to a million-line monorepo with three competing architectural patterns and a CI/CD pipeline that breaks if you look at it wrong. The real world of development is much
