Given their relationship with AWS, I wonder if this feature just runs the agent core code interpreter behind the scenes.

Once thing I've noticed is the difference in code quality by language. I'm constantly disappointed by the output of python code. I have to correct it to follow even the most basic software development principles (DRY, etc). Types

Ya, I didn't mean in the context of hooking up a LLM to control your browser (which is exactly what the article is about so, fair enough). My point was: It's not "insecure" for a bank to release an agentic assistant that

I'll also add the problem in the article seems pretty solvable by allowing user to scope the agentic capabilities to specific websites ( eg "walmart.com:allow_cc,allow_adress").

If you only give the AI the ability to do what the end user can already do, the risk is extremely low. It's essential no different then building a static web app where the client is connected to API for all operations. It basically j

There should be legislation that requires company's allow "opting out" of individualized algorithmic feeds. I'm fine if you want to show me videos similar to channels I've explicitly subscribed to. But tracking my

As others have said, the permissions required to make this work are scary and require a lot of trust. The fact YouTube and Instagram don't allow you to disable endless algorithmic short form content is straight up evil.

Oh absolutely. To be clear... I think this is probably a bad idea. It probably wouldn't be successful and if it was you'd have very little control of how it evolves.

The problem with LLMs reaching true AGI is it's basically "static" intelligence. Changing code, context, prompts and even fine tuning can improve output, but is still far from realtime learning. The "weights" in our

My guess is leaked from a misconfigured force.com site often used as a support portal or kb. Up until recently they came misconfigured by default to allow public access to the basic info of accounts, contact, opportunity through list view e

Then do you need tests to validate your tests are correct, otherwise the LLM might just generate passing code even if the test is bad? Or write code that games the system because it's easier to hardcode an output value then to do the

Ya this is nonsense. The web is what it is. You could maybe say "every framework is a hack to workaround protocols primarily designed in the 90's before we really understood the full application of the web"

Why mention multiboard and not honeycomb storage wall (HSW)? It's open source and arguably a better ecosystem.

Are there any guides on using the "react style" framework (JSX / State) to generate outputs other than DOM? I've been interested in the idea of doing something similar for JSON or markdown document generation.

My only experience is via cursor but I'd agree in that context 3.7 is worse than 3.5. 3.7 goes crazy trying to fix any little linter errors and often gets confused and will just hammer away, making things worse until I stop generation.

Calling typescript devs "low quality" while also citing python as "high quality" actually made me laugh out loud. Thank you for the chuckle.
