    I think that mathematical proofs, as they are actually written, rely on natural language and on a large amount of implicit shared knowledge. They are not formalized in the Principi…

    Tested it on a bug that Claude and ChatGPT Pro struggled with, it nailed it, but only solved it partially (it was about matching data using a bipartite graph). Another task was opt…

    I have the feeling that we are still in the early stages of AI adoption, where regulation hasnt fully caught up yet. I can imagine a future where LLMs sit behind KYC identification…

    I loved the article, but it overlooks one important point: although the JPEG format is frozen, encoders are still evolving ! Advances such as smarter quantization, better perceptua…

    In a quick web demo, this library was the only one that could handle interactive viewing and manipulation of a very large graph using its GraphGL component ! I don’t think it's a w…

    Not sure if Michael Roth is related to Philip Roth, but it somehow reminds me of American Pastoral and that era of protests against the Vietnam War and its aftermath. I'm not entir…

    In my experience, recent versions work well for out-of-core computation (I use it frequently). What is the size of the Parquet file that you are using? - I can't find the details i…

    The model provides verbose answers even when I asked for more succinct ones. It still struggles with arithmetic (for example, it incorrectly stated "7739 % 23 = 339 exactly, making…
