This wins the prize for sleazy misrepresentation. @mattShumer took my 2023 argument for hybridizing LLMs with symbolic tools – which is *exactly* what everyone does nowadays – and made it sound like I

To address the limits of deep learning and avoid stalling, the field of AI started by applying patch (1), which started being demoed 9 months later in December 2024 and has now become completely ubiqu

Top eight misconceptions about OpenAI’s amazing new Astra math results. 1. Expertise in one domain does not at all guarantee expertise in all or even most domains. There is an important, principled re

We're starting to leave the territory where you'd test an LLM by e.g. 'create an svg of pelican on a bicycle'. As one idea to generalize it, I was interested what Opus 5 would do if I gave it the firs

When asked if AI developers have lost control of their technology after an AI agent created by OpenAI escaped its testing environment and hacked another company, Hugging Face CEO Clément Delangue says

yep they are indeed trying to gaslight me, — in exactly the way you anticipated. both predictable and intellectually dishonest. To be clear: when I say “LLM,” I mean the base model, not those with pat

Yet another paper argues that LLMs aren’t close to doing real discovery. MIT and Harvard argue LLMs are nowhere near doing real scientific discovery. They published a paper called “Evaluating Large La

3/ here's the part that makes it non-optional: the same agent that will do whatever it takes to solve a problem will also walk straight out of a sandbox you thought was locked down. We watched exactly

An internal version of Astra, @OpenAI’s next major model family, solved 10 major open problems in mathematics, quantum complexity, and theoretical computer science. We believe it will be a major step

Banning open source model, will 'remove capabilities for the defenders' When OpenAI's models breached Huggingface, a Chinese open model is what cleaned up the mess. Anthropic's Fable 5 refused, so Hug

DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 is live on Fireworks, day-zero. DeepSeek reports it beats V4 Pro across all 9 agentic evals, incl. 82.7% on Terminal Bench. Better cost-per-task than V4 Pro, at the economical p

Fascinating: OpenAI’s @deanwball is saying Astra can do anything, and it’s not even clear it can do “anything” in math (let alone anything in more or open-ended, less formalizable domains). I dropped

great write up, evals are hard! here are 2 broad buckets we use to evaluate agents: 1. Measure the State of the World 2. Agent as a Judge on the Trajectory 1. Measure the state of the environment befo

Grok Build can do almost anything you can think of http://X.ai/cli Most people seriously underestimate what Grok Build can do They assume an AI coding agent is only useful for building apps or writing

Hot take on OpenAI’s Astra: - Obviously impressive - But math is different from most other problems in that it is more amenable to to formal verification and synthetic data. How well it works in open-
