it's not surprising as LLM's will generally fail you when you yourself don't know what you want. it's surprising how many people and organizations just blunder around scribbling code without clear goals in mind - for suc

we reached a point where there will always be demand for tokens. suppose the current frontier models are final and there is no more progress. it still wouldn't matter because the cheaper the tokens the more demand there will be which w

either openai carelessly stole stuff from apple or apple is trying to slow/hobble a competitive threat. why are people taking sides in the comments? either is equally likely at the moment. discovery could be interesting.

the intent is that no one owns those keys, your silicon should be the only entity in "possession" of those keys. but no one uses blind signatures for attestation so it can be used to fingerprint your device's serial. they do

Arc AGI are simple games, the hardness comes from the input being basically adversarial to LLM training. if you use an LLM scaffold that removes the adversarial part you are measuring something else. the harness basically outsources the ali

it looks like what they are doing is using a frontier model to write a simulator for a game and then solve using it. it's not as impressive as it looks. the goals of Arc-AGI-like constructs is to get an IQ-like figure using raw'is

a certificate that data was destroyed is absolutely worthless no matter who it comes from. what kind of sorcery do they have to let them determine that no backups were taken before they arrived to "certify"?

only if you want to do something really exotic/scifi. volcanoes have shown us how to do it relatively easily. conservatively, "$18 billion per year per degree Celsius of warming avoided".

I wouldn't be too worried about it this century at least. if things look like they are going to get bad we will resort to geoengineering, and once we get a taste for it we will further optimize global temperatures to our liking. perver

that's actually how you do it. adversarial systems like those are prime candidates. one agent develops detection mechanisms and the other agent defeats them. progression signal is easy to get. and you bootstrap with existing javascript

there is a curve to it, up to a certain temperature it helps and then it starts making things worse (because it becomes a convection oven). I believe it's around 35 Celsius. if you are outside you can attach water nozzles to the fan, t

the best way to prevent false sharing is by making it so that no two threads are in a position to access the same data structure which may be inconsistent because it is being written to. embrace message passing.

when doing rewrites like these, why isn't the first step to instrument the original code so that you would get very good automated test suites to point the LLM toward? use both synthetic and real data to sample the internals of the ori
