Having a relatively new LinkedIn account now is probably a very bad move if you don't have an established network to reach out to for jobs. There are tons of AI generated profiles …

Board Game Bench is an arena for comparing the performance of LLMs on competitive board games. While board games are simple for humans to play, LLMs struggle to even understand the…
