This is a really cool project. Thanks for sharing!

I preferred o3 for coding and analysis tasks, but appreciated 4o as a “companion model” for brainstorming creative ideas while taking long walks. Wasn’t crazy about the sycophancy …

As a professor who teaches courses on media literacy and artificial intelligence, I am obsessed with our relationship with AI interfaces. I got tired of the default sycophantic gla…

Really enjoyed this piece. Learned quite a bit about the value of test-time compute and the way that reinforcement learning can be used to train reasoning into a model. My jaw drop…

Really enjoyed this game. Well done!

There are different types of universities. While R1 institutions are more focused on research than teaching, there are smaller liberal arts universities which revolve around the un…

Great post. Thank you for highlighting that hilarious code comment.

I came here to say the same thing. :)

The Michigan Post article is mostly speculation and that publication doesn’t have much depth/history to it. Check out their “advertise with us” page. This whole info dump feels lik…

“Funneled money to the startup” or “fundraised for the startup?” There’s a world of difference between those two things.

Are you sure the seed number isn’t a hallucination? I think it might be an internal reference which vaguely alludes to the original prompt. The seed has no persistent meaning beyon…

To be clear, I have no regrets and would make the same choices.
