It won’t, the state of the art is changing so quickly it is near impossible to stay on top of. Right now claude code is doing stuff for our team that was impossible with ai coding six month ago. Probably a year from now it will be somethin

I was working on a fairly niche thing, a library of crossplane compositions written in KCL and thought it would be nice to have a TUI so i could browse through them and see the rendered yaml as claude was working on it. I asked claude code

It wasn't wrong. It was proved for uniform materials. This paper extends it to non-uniform materials, with an additional condition.

People should know the legal context of this, which is that the Fifth Circuit is out of step with every other circuit in the country on this.

Chatgpt 5.2 in the past couple of weeks has gotten noticeably worse for me to the point that I stopped using it and just ask claude code questions instead.

I am not going to argue this on the basis of LLM's suck at fiction, because even if it's true, it's not really that relevant. The problem is that what LLM's are good at is producing mediocre fiction particular to the ta

Wow, that is almost point for point what I had written down in a bunch of documents I had been spreading around at work this week. Excellent post.

I think this is mostly a problem of making things skills that don't need to be skills (telling it how to do something it already knows how to do), and having way too much context, so that the skills effectively disappear. If skills ar

They're basically all trade-offs between context-size/token-use and flexibility. If you can write a bash or a python script, or an api or an MCP to do what you want, then write a bash or python script to do it. You can even incl

Experimenting with skills over the last few months has completely changed the way I think about using LLMs. It's not so much that it's a really important technology or super brilliant, but I have gone from thinking of LLMs and ag

I am doing now with AI what I consider more to be engineering management than I am doing software dev, and most technical managers have their coding skills atrophy over time and I don't think that is really a problem.

I am not sure we are at the "efficiency" phase of this. Even if you just wire this output (or probably multiples running different counterfactuals) into a multimodal LLM that interprets the video and uses it to make decisions, you

Tokens are expensive and downloading is cheap. I think probably the opposite is true, really, and more packages will be written specifically for LLMs to use because their api uses fewer tokens.
