When they say "can't hallucinate" they mean they produce a confidence value for every result, so you could see for example it has 0.1 confidence, and you can disregard the result - that'd be different from hallucinating where it believes it's correct

if it puts a high confidence value on a wrong answer, thats still hallucinating, no? llm hallucinations are high probability tokens that are incorrect vs the real world

Yes, there is no magic sauce here that makes stochastic output binary if that’s what people are looking for.

A few questions: 1. Do you provide any kind of largest common subtree caching for cheaper input? 2. Have you tried auto-generating Lisp programs structurally? 3. Have you tried augmenting a Lisp language with a `choice` function that makes choices given a prompt, the environment, and the continuation stack?

(1) Nope, it's always the same input token cost (2-3) No, but that's kind of a sick cook ... Want to get access and try it? nathan@typesafe.ai

Thanks for the early access! I was testing the Lisp idea out in the playground, but I don't think the model is smart enough right now to generate actual code. I tried having Jev finish generating the code for a Fibonacci number function, but it kept wanting to create a literal number instead of refer to a variable which is a number. This happened both when I gave Jev the current program as a string and when I gave Jev the program as structured data.

Maybe I'm just not doing a very good job at prompting Jev, but I think right now it's not quite capable enough to generate Lisp code.

Super cool! Instantly joined the waitlist.

It might be boring, but I can see exactly how I could use this right now to improve my agentic rag.[0] In two months I am supposed to deal with a giant corpus, while still maintaining responsive chat UX. I have been working my butt off to make our first big client happy. This could really help solve the chunk ranking problem.

[0] assuming the policies are compatible with sensitive production workloads, some time in the near future.

Wasn't really till seeing this home assistant demo they have ( https://www.loom.com/share/18c4dbcf8db546dfb2d7f2ef018e78e4 ) that the value really clicked for me. Seems really cool.

Guess I'm a bit less impressed seeing that for some of the more intelligent driven+action work -- splitting requests in the video -- they had to kick out to an anthropic model.

This is likely still an LLM (in the purest definition of a language model with relatively many parameters) since the inputs are natural language, just not a generative LLM as the output is something other than more language.

The inputs aren't natural language. https://docs.typesafe.ai/primitives

The inputs are natural language, they're just also structured into a tree. The first example on that very page shows natural language instructions:

    questions = {
        "refund_requested": Noul(
            instructions="Does the customer request a refund?",
        ),
    }

Right and so maybe we should stop saying "can't hallucinate" when it can by definition.

It’s not what people are looking for, but what they wrongly claim.

This video makes a better job at explaining what it is about vs the marketing ones. Thanks for sharing.

Could you use this to build a proactive memory formation and retrieval system for LLMs that runs lightning fast?

Last 32k of connect + Summary of current task: Did we learn something useful here (true/false)? What is the category to file it under? Then notify the LLM to file it away.

What class of memory might be useful here? Model gives probability to each item in the list. Short description of all memories ordered by tagged class is used in the next round. Are any of these memories useful in the current context, such that they will inform the model and help in its task (yes/no)?

I’m sure there’s some fine tuning to be had, but this sure seems like the basis for a substantially better proactive memory system that works around an existing LLM conversation.

If I’m understanding what this does and how this works (generic input, intelligent classification with probabilities, rapid and cheap), this is absolutely nuts.
