    Of course, but that was not part of my workflow and I found it quite strange that this was simply not possible especially when docker-compose can easily do this

    I tried Docker Sandboxes but last time I checked you could not configure custom volume mounts, making more complex setups impossible. For work I need two directories for context fo…

    This doesn’t hold up imo. Your phone analogy fits the description of a harness. That is the thing you interact with. The LLM is more like the processor in that phone. As long as it…

    That is very true but I was surprised by how clear the “signal” was. Only Gemini really confidently solved all levels. But yeah the goal is now to include harder levels as well!

    Yes that was the post that inspired me to build this. While I did implement a more comprehensive harness with path finding tools etc. the models themselves have improved significan…

    I found LLMs to be surprisingly good at puzzle games like Baba Is You: https://meffmadd.github.io/samplesurium/posts/baba_is_agent/

    I think this view assumes no human will/should ever read the code. This is considered bad practice because someone else will not understand the code as well whether written by a hu…

    Genuine question to people more knowledgeable: Why are politicians/technocrats doing this? Also generally speaking e.g. in relation to chat control and so on. Do they think this is…

    I am amazed that the IDM is able to produce enough high quality annotations for the downstream FDM to work, even matching the ground truth contractor annotations!

    As an EU citizen I really hope we can gain some meaningful distance to the US asap. I hope my leaders feel the same. And if everything works out I think this will be great for the …

    I really wonder what motivates a seven year old to persistently work on that „one thing“ and not get distracted/bored. I guess he knew he was special?

    Have you ever used an open model for a bit? I am not saying they are not benchmaxxing but they really do work well and are only getting better.

    Here is what I don’t get tho: you have UX designers/engineers creating a new interface. What do you tell them? Just to do whatever? They probably spent months designing the new int…

    It will be tough to run on our 4x H200 node… I wish they stayed around the 350B range. MLA will reduce KV cache usage but I don’t think the reduction will be significant enough.

    From what I have heard „Bodycam“ uses scans of actual locations for its maps.

    Yeah true, but also this is a bit like saying the lock screen of your phone should not become a "one stop shop" for all push notifications. I actually do not own an Apple TV but I …

    Wow that is quite anti-consumer! Surely a monopoly on streaming will help them realize this. /s

    As an EU citizen hosting LLMs for researchers and staff at the university I work at, this is hits home. Without Chinese models we could not do what we do right now. IMO, in the EU …
