This is like asking me "how much of your software is built by the compiler?" -> the answer is 100%. Ask "how much did you build then?" -> also 100%. The compiler and I operate on different layers.

This is exactly how human society scaled from the cavemen era to today. We didn't need to make our brains bigger in order to get to the modern industrial age - increasingly sophisticated tool use and organization was all we did. It onl

Humans are checked against various rules and laws (often carried out by other humans.) So this is how it's going to be implemented in an "AI organization" as well. Nothing strange about this really. LLM is easier to work wi

I can see this makes sense for simple { user_query -> search -> llm_answer } usage, where tool use is only a means to retrieve background info. For complex real-world agent flows though, tool use is often the only thing that the LLM i

Ask the AI to document each module in a 100-line markdown. These should be very high level, don't contain any detail, but just include pointers to relevant files for AI to find out by itself. With a doc as the starting point, AI will h

Sub-agent is another LLM loop that you simply import and provide as a tool to your orchestrator LLM. For example in Claude Code, sub-agent is a tool called "Task(<description>)" made available to the main LLM (the one that y

It’s not a clear line though. Compilers have been writing programs for us. The plaintext programming language code that we talk about is but a spec for the actual program. From this perspective, English-as-spec is a natural progression in t

What you described can be (and is being) achieved by agentic systems like Claude Code. When you give it a task, it knows to learn best practices on the web, find out what other devs are doing in your codebase, and it adapts. And it condense

I don't think it will settle things even if we did manage to train an 1800 LLM with sufficient size. LLMs are blank slates (like an uncultured primitive human being - albeit LLM comes with knowledge built-in, but builtin knowledge is m

What are you basing this on? Is there an “inventiveness test” that humans can pass but LLMs don’t? I’m not aware of any.

Nothing fundamentally prevents an LLM from achieving this. You can ask an LLM to produce a PR, another LLM to review a PR, and another LLM to critique the review, then another LLM to question the original issue's validity, and so on...

Surely at that point the CEO would be AI as well. The owner (human) would say "build a company, make me a billion dollars" and that would be the only valuable input needed from him/her. Everything else would be derived &

Yes, this is the point made by the root-level comment: the US would have to build Chinese style Great Firewall to achieve its goal if Bytedance didn't willingly take down their sites. In my understanding this law in question requires U

IMO Pandora's box is now open, and it's a matter of time before we see countries around the world offer the same divest-or-ban choice to Meta, Google, etc. The question is who first and how quickly it will happen.

The funny thing here is that complying means they never do business in the US anyway. So potentially it is beneficial for Bytedance to still serve US viewers but keep no physical presence in the US, and deal only with non-American adverti

For one thing, Chinese government does have an incentive to enforce good encryption so that foreign adversaries cannot snoop in on important Chinese communications. Only the Chinese government has access via Tencent’s backend.

Great stuff! I wonder if it's possible to make it available as a web app? It would be even cooler if no app install is required, just send the link to a receiver via text message.

How are you running the model? I believe it's a bug from a rushed instruct fine-tuning or in the chat template. The base model can't possibly be this bad. https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/2650

How is using this tool different from manually concatenating (website name + username + secret key), e.g. “reddit$myname$123456”? Since Reddit would hash it anyway, this plaintext string should be as secure as a Pashword.

Or it could simply be that users of public transport tend to be poorer, and therefore live farther from work for lower rent.
