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

Why we can't have nice things!
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?

A classic in the making!
Wooo!!! I can't believe the book is finally out! 🎉🎉🎉 The process of writing the Vibe Coding book with @Steve_Yegge was an adventure of a lifetime — I love that this book tells the story of two people who both thought their best days of coding were behind them... Only to

This "MIT paper" from UW.
🚨 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:

Crypto 101: seed phrases are broken. We don’t use them. Each wallet is independent, backups encrypted, PIN-protected. No photo, glance, or leak can steal your funds. Yet the old, vulnerable story is still everywhere.

Last week at a workshop I will not name to protect the innocent, it was claimed that "if you have a good evaluation, you can ask any foundation model company to use it as part of their training" and thus your favorite LLM will magically will understand your niche PL/formal method

"... Guido van Rossum: I honestly think the importance of the GIL removal project has been overstated. It serves the needs of the largest users (e.g. Meta) while complicating things for potential contributors to the CPython code base (proving that new code does not introduce

Every year, like a Swiss clock, when the Nobel Prizes are announced, the usual suspect gets triggered.
2025 update: A Nobel Prize for Plagiarism (Technical Report IDSIA-24-24). Sadly, the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to Hopfield & Hinton is effectively a prize for plagiarism. They republished foundational methodologies for artificial neural networks developed by Ivakhnenko,

How can you have worked at Meta and not know what a "boomerang" is?
I had never heard the term "Boomerang Hiring". 😃 Thanks for the reachout @Meta @finkd, but what I'm building now is far more exciting and important. I'm rooting for @AIatMeta and Meta Superintelligence Labs teams though. The recent ARE paper and GAIA2 benchmark in particular
