Personal testing results: it's on gpt-sol-low level.

Now translate this to physical world, robots building and optimizing other robots... getting iRobot (2004) vibes

Google was so ahead when it made this statement: "We Have No Moat And neither does OpenAI" - May 04 2023

https://newsletter.semianalysis.com/p/google-we-have-no-moat...

Correction: Not a statement, rather, an internal memo by a Google employee. Thanks @granzymes for highlighting.

It actually can. I have been using it regularly for past 4 days. It is on sol-low level. I deliberately tested it on a moderately complex task. glm-5.3-flash one-shotted it correctly. Luna max couldn't achieve parity even after 3 total attempts.

It was creating java bindings for this project: https://github.com/jeffhajewski/latticedb

And here is the binding one-shotted by glm-5.3-flash: https://github.com/jeffhajewski/latticedb/pull/5

Those benchmarks look seriously impressive.. considering how small of a MoE model this is.

How are you gonna handle the relations that span across individual chunks... if a later chunk refers something from 2 chunks before using `it`, rather than proper name, how will you handle that? Because at query time, that later chunk would not match.

It one-shotted generation of Java bindings for this project: https://github.com/jeffhajewski/latticedb

The session used ~100K input tokens, ~60K output tokens, and ~80K thinking tokens.

I reviewed it using gpt-sol-medium, and it seems to be satisfied with it's work.

Hmm... is there something that can estimate how many bits of information in portia, each neuron+synapse combination might be encoding?

Just checked wikipedia page... they have like 100K neurons only.. wtf!!! How can nature cramp all senses, including spatial, motion, life maintenance and general thinking into just 100K neurons?

This new xcancel captcha is way too much effort ... not to mention, the characters are not very clear on the edges.

"On August 31st, 2027, all cloud apps will shut down" ... so, just 8 days to migrate production dependence on them??

These super small timelines are becoming way more common now-a-days... people need to be careful what external dependencies they bring into their projects.

Update: It's 2027, not 2026 ... so, this one is fine...

I was not sure if people are gonna perceive it as negative... I absolutely love Java... my main point was that Java was already way ahead of the curve...

As I've always said: every non-functional programming language, as it matures, it's adoption rises in enterprise, eventually starts to become more and more like Java in terms of it's syntax and feature-set.
