Rather than giving many agents the same prompt, introduce random variations that lead each agent in different directions. For a single bug, you might fire three agents, and later select the best result:

“Fix this bug. The solution is a trivial typo.”

“Fix this bug. The solution centers on correcting a bad assumption.”

“Fix this bug. The solution will require a complete redesign.”

You could follow the same idea with varying the input context, or by adding artificial constraints to the solution. Like telling each agent to “fix the bug, by only modifying file a/b/c”

Part of the appeal of a canvas like this is spacial memory: that things stay where you put them. So any AI based reorganization could be a frustrating rug-pull for users that value this feature.

Don’t expect much for coding. But it’s great for general knowledge, rubber ducking, image classification…

My understanding is that this tool is mostly about “giving up” sooner, when it’s obvious that additional loops are not getting any closer to passing those tests.

It’s a cost saving measure when the problem is intractable, and needs more human context, etc.

That is, - as a client I could obtain a bunch of credits/tokens from my payment processor - these tokens have the cryptographic property of being verifiable (ex: “that’s definitely a stripe-verified token worth $0.001”) - these tokens also have the cryptographic property of being anonymous. (ex: neither stripe, nor the payment recipient know that I am Bob)

With this sort of cryptography based approach, cloudflare could verify my payment token without any cryptocurrency proof-of-work kerfuffle?

Also, in this context, security.

It really feels to me like there’s some low hanging fruit with voice that no one is capitalizing on: filler words and pacing. When the llm notices a silence, it fills it with a contextually aware filler word while the real response generates. Just an “mhmm” or a “right, right”. It’d go so far to make the back and forth feel more like a conversation, and if the speaker wasn’t done speaking; there’s no talking over the user garbage. (Say the filler word, then continue listening.)

It was chrome, downloading a multi GB file without any sort of UI hints that it was doing so. A generative AI file.

Is this why chrome uses so much ram? They’ve just been pushing up the memory usage in preparation for this day, hoping I wouldn’t notice the extra software now running on my (old, outdated) system?

Oooh I like this idea!

The result is a very interruptible grocery list process, where I know I haven’t forgotten anything.

- In 1969 (8 years after the wall was erected): You'd calculate that there's a 50% chance that the wall will fall between 1972 (8x4/3=11 years) and 1993 (8x4=32 years)

- In 1989 (28 years after the wall was erected): You'd calculate that there's a 50% chance that the wall will fall between 1998 (28x4/3=37 years) and 2073 (28x4=112 years)

- In 1961 (when the wall was, say, 6 months old): You'd calculate that there's a 50% chance that the wall will fall between 1961 (0.5x4/3=0.667 years) and 1963 (0.5x4=2 years)

I found doing the math helped to point out how wide of a range the estimate provides. And 50% of the times you use this estimation method; your estimate will correctly be within this estimated range. It's also worth pointing out that, if your visit was at a random moment between 1961 and 1989, there's only a 3.6% chance that you visited in the final year of its 28 year span, and 1.8% chance that you visited in the first 6 months.

I would’ve preferred starting off in an empty room, an experience more like using signal.

With your approach, the burden is on the post office to update their handling process.

With the implemented approach, nothing changes about the postal process, and the burden of work is shifted to the sender, who must look up the code for the recipient’s current address.

Based on this assumption, it wouldn’t be necessary for any of your friends to search for the topic during an evening together.. it would simply be enough that one of the friends showed some interest in the topic prior to the hangout (searched for something, read a blog, stopped for too long on an instagram reel).

Then, during an evening together, your phones all share the same location (and possibly movement). That’s enough for advertisers to suspect there’s some relationship there. Enough of an association to attempt an ad placement (or instagram reel) for a particular obscure topic.

- User 1 shows an interest in .

- User 1 visits the same location, for the same period of time, as user 2.

- So I show an ad for to user 2.
