(sarcastic) Not too long until we see designer babies by Claude?

It rages me as well. Some random attacker could have MITM attack any https website without being noticed by anyone(including eMudhra), surely it won't contribute any to their revenue!

Just counting by hours is not reflecting the impact on the economy. Treemap weighted by GDP will make more sense.

Would be better if your friend is lawyer and take $1/yr(or higher) for the service so that attorney-client privilege can be applied.

edit: ah, future crime cannot be protected.

I would encourage to speak up - especially when we're blaming bad code(not a person) being bad. Ultimately senior engineers are ones who can blame bad things with a compelling reason.

Happy to read good reasoning why it's fucking blow-up.

and seems like they're claiming Sol/Opus are not frontier (and only Astra/Fable are)

If you can identify gradient (what direction your change will impact the ultimate goal), then just repeating the process (or reverse-process) can find local maximum.

Still it can be a software engineering if the gradient candidate / measuring gradient / repeat process can be done at scale.

It seems those frontier labs found a clear proof that there's no clear way to block 3rd party from distilling their models, and they're now begging gov to keep their duopoly?

I argue there's no difference. At least OpenAI/Anthropic can be considered premium like Octane 93 while OSS ones are 87.

I agree 90% of the world can work with 87 gas, but there's always niche/luxury market where 93 can make small difference.

(edit: typo)

I also have some secret recipe finding one class of bugs: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues?q=is%3Apr%20author%3Ablm...

curious they're willing to run AISLE on tmux to find more than mine.

https://docs.immich.app/administration/storage-template/ is their best attempt to address your concern, but honestly I'm fine with navigating my photos solely using immich. (with annual backup copy stored in cold cloud storage)

They should not waste their time on curing cancers. They should waste their time winning the stock market - by doing HFT, market making, or whatever. AI please predict butterfly effect and reap all market money!

Surely it will be quite dystopian future - AI will dictate how the money allocated, where there is only one private company left - Anthropic (as per Dario says)

I expect future LLM will refuse to share the reason. "Hey, how did you come up with this idea?" "you have to pay enterprise API to learn this"

Seems like everyone is doing similar... here's mine:

Idea is to keep everything feel same with tmux, just add what's necessary for agent integrations.

I don't think there is a lot test harness, given there is a golden implementation (sqlite3), with clear interface (SQL, and sqlite3 db files). Once you slop crappy implementation, then you can create one group of agents finding gap where slop doing wrong vs golden, and another group of agents filling the gap meeting the conformance.

I assume they did similar, as long as test case(or spec) can be parallelized. Having parallel execution / testing environment is crucial if we need 1000 commits/second throughput.

I would not surprised they have 1+ millions of specs.

I would bet they won't release generated specs - actually this will be a valuable asset like https://sqlite.org/th3.html

Attack is not just on file format itself. Based on the function signature it's possible for a single decoder to generate infinite bytestream - makes a lot of headache to reader implementation - implementing STRLEN is no longer trivial question.

Either engines should put some limit (e.g. VARCHAR(2000) to enforce length to be limited to 2000, but there are some other engines supporting unlimited BLOBs), or decoder should give a hint what is the maximum length it will yield. Unfortunately current research level project does not have such considerations implemented yet...

I think it's due to calibration - practical work related problems are never that simple & easy so naturally people might start from DP formula.

D[A,B] := number of ways to navigate from grid sized AxB = D[A-1,B]+D[A,B-1]

and the aha moment is realising this is just a binomial coefficient.
