I have no connection with Google, but I love Kotlin and Aarhus is a nice city. This seems a great opportunity for compiler hackers in the old country. https://t.co/s2dsLrf3Ue

New research with @AdtRaghunathan, Nicholas Carlini and Anthropic! We built ImpossibleBench to measure reward hacking in LLM coding agents 🤖, by making benchmark tasks impossible and seeing whether models game tests or follow specs. (1/9)

Is the prompt engineering equivalent of this https://t.co/yMO56ewHFG like saying "create a step-by-step plan" and then using that to generate the answer based on the plan, vs saying "think step-by-step" to generate the answer directly?

🚨 This MIT paper just broke everything we thought we knew about AI reasoning. These researchers built something called Tensor Logic that turns logical reasoning into pure mathematics. Not symbolic manipulation. Not heuristic search. Just tensor algebra. Here's how it works:

I have a new benchmark for computer use. Listen to an arbitrary song (via the microphone) and transcribe it (all instruments and lyrics) using Guitar Pro or similar tool. Wake me up when it is real.
