I feel the entire incident confirms the “AI has too much funding too quickly” hypothesis. The number one thing reinforcement learning needs is an assurance you can’t cheat. And they seem to have not noticed that their systems were cheating

If it is helpful to other people here is how I manage my ebook library with flatfiles and heterogeneous devices (Android, macOS, iOS, Kindle, etc) I have my own eBook library hosted with copyparty. It is a single binary. Runs on plain files

I just reverse engineered the Supernote note file format with an agent a few weeks ago. For years the community had been asking for a document on the format. And in a few hours the agent, with 20 something file format example fixtures and 3

We have been working on a thing to solve this if it helps: people can oauth to their own agents for hobby projects to keep prices down. https://tokenpony.dev I have a project for people to OCR their Supernote notes using it all

I like this idea. I feel the hurdle is that many people have come to rely on their language tools for install.

I listened to his book, Concrete Botany[1], while doing my gardening last month. I really enjoyed it even as a long time watcher of his YouTube channel. I don't know if I could have read it because it does seem to drag on a bit but it
