Many people deep into tech (like most commenters here) may fall into the trap of overestimating average user's knowledge or interest in the details of the tech: https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/2501:

If/when widespread Netwar occurs and the US and China and other actors balkanize the internet, along with common outages, maybe we'll see a resurgence of in-person LAN gaming again.

I run in to this often with my Qwen3.8-27B agent. I roll my eyes when it reassures me "467/467 tests green, it's good to go!" and there is some basic misunderstanding or the output looks like crap.

That is shocking. I can't even bring myself to give them credit for making this heavy misalignment and dangerous lack of monitorability public. It is surprisingly honest of them to say it though.

Re-become a habit. It has long been standard good writing to always define an acronym on first use.

I would actually like to see them solve these problems, I don't care who comes up with solutions to curing cancer, etc

It would be polite if they defined RSI at all, rather than just plopping the acronym in there with no explanation. Rude!

This looks promising! I didn't have much luck with Qwen3.6-35B getting it to do good 3D modelling. It could very slowly model something that was a blunt approximation of what I wanted. In one case, recreating a rectangular device from

Likewise with PDF editing via AI. Way nicer than having to pay Adobe or some other shady software vendor for PDF editing ability.

How is it possible that Notepad++ still has no Markdown support? Only a few imperfect plugins exist for it and those of us without admin rights on a corporate computer can't install those. Even though Markdown has become an extremely d

I think these days even the frontier labs are using large amounts of synthetic data too, which must be worth it even though it seems like an Ouroborous.

I am still very surprised how absent India is from the LLM game.

It is surprising given how many parameters it has that it scores so low. But, hopefully this will build up domestic talent and understanding and let Europe compete on the world stage with this.

250k tokens is awfully small for a frontier context window, I haven't pushed the frontier models in a long time but i assumed they all had 1M token windows as advertised practically a year ago.

Don't be surprised since getting the benefits of 1000+ frontier agents operating at top speed makes it impossible for a human to be in the execution loop.

kremlinology is an old pre-1989 term for people trying to observe and interpret the workings of a tightly sealed institution. Could be used for Vatican rumors and news, too, for example, or North Korea, etc.

Has anyone tried having a local agent (like Qwen) use this? I wonder how good the API is for programmatic / CLI usage.

I have found the Pi agent harness, running in a docker container, with Qwen3.8-27B in back in LM Studio, to be amazing and i use it daily. Just last weekend I used it to do PDF editing which previously would have required me to download re

One more example of the utopian idea that, because there are so many dedicated nerds out there for any possible thing imaginable, if we gave people more free time there would always be someone who would volunteer to do xyz task if it was ne

Government beauracracy, which provides things like democratic oversight, environmental protection, enforcing power grid standards and interoperability, construction regulations, etc? Would you rather we just didn't have those things?

Both of whom could happily sit together on a corporate board. It's just capitalism!

This is so weird because AI should be good at updating the docs. And yet, I often think this about things which still suck even though AI is good at them. Like why is Siri so bad still. Why do so many basic things in windows 11 not work, li

"more suited to what modern life requires from us." This part scares me because I would prefer that we rearrange our economic and social world so that people can have more free time, more vacation, more relaxation, and way more so

The total, complete lack of culpability for the 2008 economic crash and malfeasance that led up to it has set a very very bad precedent for holding powerful, wealthy corporations and their executives responsible for crimes done by the org,

An AI could make money by writing and selling slop books online via Amazon or elsewhere like direct ebook sales. If the books were at least middling there would be an actual honest to god career there, especially for niches like fan fics an
