A service that allows you to post generic agent/task workload and execute and observe it in the background. Sort of for long timelines. I just want to have background agents to monitor various aspects of my digital life and keep those

The problem is that we are still talking only about software. If that is the only thing agents can do then they are just better IDE’s for programmers. This would be an enabler for building stuff faster. Think about it, there is already a hu

Good discussion of the paper and the observations and ironies. A thing to note is that we do have software factories already, with a bunch of automation in place and folks being trained to deal with incidents. The pools of agents just eleva

This is just signing, nothing cutting edge. Verification of signatures is a fairly old tech. What is the exact problem here? Is it that manufacturers do not publish the signed binaries or is it that you want to run something on your car com

One of the points was that European manufacturers will start making more cars in US purely because it is cheaper to do so due to the lower bar. Why would we want that? Our market is quite big anyway and this agreement is an attempt to shoul

It makes sense in US but not in Europe where public transport infra is good. There are so many places where robotaxis would just be stuck on narrow European roads. Why would I even use a robotaxi when I can get one with the actual person wh

The problem is how to even define a task using the English language and make sure there is enough entropy to infer the detailed intent. For it to be later split into zillions of small steps which can be executed over time by an LLM.

Great point, it might be just pure ignorance. Even OSS pentesting tooling such as metasploitable have great capabilities. I see how LLM could be leveraged to build custom modules on top of those tools or how can you add basic LLM “decision”

Sorry I was meaning to say "passport terminal" capabilities which would require a cert to be issued by a country whose passport chips you want to read. Well maybe they had this for a while but AFAIK you could not read passport det

There was a post from trailofbits blog recently about how passport crypto works. Kind of related here. I wonder if this is some zero knowledge proofs here or what? Reading the passport and its chip implies some terminal authentication capab

Did not know about it much before but apparently was doing something similar (in spirit) when experimenting with simple task execution queues in go. This is quite interesting and given that hot code reloading is a thing in beam it might be

A pretty thin opinion piece, I was expecting more details. But there are a bunch of comments under that article which is probably juicier than the main text.

Yes but at the end of the day you need to trust the cloud provider tools which expands the trust boundary from just hardware root of trust. Who is to guarantee they will not create a malicious tool update and push it then retract it? It is

If you trust the provider then it does not make it much better to use such architecture. If you do not then at least the execution should be inside a confidential system so that even soldering would not get you to data

Yes it seems like it is absent in this discussion but maybe it should have been “it” the whole time as a default option. I wonder if it could attain similar throughput numbers; bet the article would feel slightly sarcastic then though

With the advent of tools like llms in editors, it is now viable to create clients and solve these gaps quite easily. It feels like the next low hanging fruit to do in many places not client friendly enough.

Surely that would need to be both input and output. But even then you could easily get lost in translation as the intent in one language might mean slightly different thing in another. Thus you could get subpar results.

As a European citizen I think it boils down to access to the capital. EU/EEA is not a country and the market is sort of fragmented. The big players are UK, France, Germany, everyone else does not have the same access to money as say in

It is just one of the theories, there is no clear evidence to suggest that Baltic and Slavic were the same language thousands of years ago.

Another angle to look at it is that cars cost a lot, petrol and electric alike. The only way to reduce depreciation is for the folks to be able to buy used cars for a lot which means financing. > A U.K.-based study found 3-year-old EVs l

I would think this is naive to imagine that targeted ads do not have influence when used in large numbers. There is a reason why this market exists. I am happy this law has an effect and potentially opens the doors to other players.

I find using “Vibe” makes it sound less valuable. It also needs to fit the next frontier which is “refactoring” and tuning the codebase to work with agents to make it easier to change existing code. A suggestion to use “augmented” was great
