On the Value of Human Ideas: What data poisoning research reveals about 'autonomous' AI breakthroughs

model-releasesr-localllama

I was reading up on the recent controversy around Tristan Buckmaster, Levent Alpöge, OpenAI, and the Navier–Stokes result, and it got me thinking about something broader than this particular dispute.

Which local model is actually good at knowing when to stop and ask you a question?

I’ve been thinking about this after using more agentic/local coding models. A lot of the newer models are surprisingly good at continuing on their own. But sometimes that seems like the problem. If a
