Mathacademy.com is pretty good for this. My kid used it in HS and liked it. It has a system that can move you forward quicker for concepts that you know. It goes pretty far through a college math curriculum. It also uses some spaced repet

I hope they don’t decide to make their own engine for Rust 2. If they need custom stuff, build it for Godot instead. If Godot can become the Blender of game engines, game developers will be in a much better place.

What is the state of the art on evaluating the accuracy of these models? Is there some equivalent to an “end to end test”? It feels somewhat recursive since the input and output are natural language and so you would need another LLM to eva
