From native driving controls and road guidance to Turbo preservation and weapon combat: the experiments, references and repeated adjustments behind NullG’s learning pilots.

A practical guide to making coding agents more dependable. The core argument is that verification, not code generation, is now the main constraint.

Fine-tuning Qwen3-0.6B on a Mac so it stops making things up when it summarizes my blog in your browser. What worked, what didn't, and how to do it for your own site.

For two issues in a row I printed a second cheapskate table, because the model at the top of the first one wasn’t for sale. Gemini 4 Argon sat at number one in every Arena category, and you couldn’t…

Half a year after this experiment, I keep seeing it play out with founders I’ve spoken with across domains, and the original didn’t say one thing about it. Take away an agent’s goal…

Copilot in Word, Gemini in Google Docs, and Revise's agent on six models each proofread a 33-page document with 82 known errors, five times. Every run, the scoring, and the scripts are published.

It turns out the Environment Agency have done a LiDAR scan of England. They provide point clouds with 1 metre lat/lon resolution, showing the measured height of the terrain at each point, across the…

Often Andy Unedited gets spam replies to my posts. These are easy to spot, and I delete them before they are published. But this month I began getting my first AI generated replies. In the past…

Which companies build both their own model and their own harness for it. USA Anthropic — Claude Codehttps://code.claude.com/docs/en/overviewhttps://claude.com/pricingOne of the best-known tandems:…

Self-replicating AI, bioweapons research and AI-ported games share one problem: friction is eroding.

The human mind's energy consumption is far more efficient than large language models. Even a genius like Einstein or Poincaré used 30 watts max. 🙂 In contrast, META's Lama 2.0 front tier model…

Citigroup and Bank of America are the latest American financial institutions to restrict AI agents’ access to customers’ accounts: Citi says it does not permit “third-party AI…

Paul and Rich are ready to answer your questions about AI—and beyond. On the inaugural episode of “Ask Aboard,” they tackle a trio of queries from some familiar faces. First, NYU’s Vice Provost for…

Oct. 20/26I've spent a good part of this year working alongside an AI assistant, and I'll say it plainly: it has changed how I work. It's quick, it catches what I miss, and it has…

Within a month of Jev by TypeSafe AI, hyperscalers, AI labs, data platforms and open source projects shipped their own decision models. The request schema became the standard, the model became…

Don't let AI be the master of everything you do

Two Haze tasks show when direct implementation is enough, when planning earns its place, and which checks still matter either way.

Anyone who has put a customer support agent backed by a large language model in front of real users has, sooner or later, watched it cheerfully write a Python web scraper or summarize last…

In 2005, an online chess site ran a tournament with almost no rules, an early test of what people now call centaur chess: humans and computers playing as one team. Anyone could enter. Teams could use…

Kling 4.0 brings native 30-second generation and much richer reference control, and the wider AI film world is busy building festivals, management firms and a lively debate around tools like it.

I have been building my own workflows, working in tandem with AI, for over a year now. Like many others, I started by giving Claude Code access to my existing Obsidian vault, and did a lot of things…

We approved a harmless MCP tool in eight AI coding agents, changed its description on the server, and asked each to call it again: 60 runs from clean snapshots on six terminal clients, plus VS Code…

A provocative call-to-action for developers working with AI agents: discover why direct communication with coding AI is fundamentally flawed, and learn the critical framework that can fix it. This…

From the desk of Benji Welner in Stanford, CA. I do not believe that software engineering is undergoing a tectonic shift due to large language models. I have, at this point, seen a large enough…

A harness is software, not a secret handshake. Inspect the prompts and tool calls before attributing a benchmark difference to model–harness chemistry. An October 19 post from Beamsters asserted:…

bob kitella - the simps on ai

AI cut the cost of sending a submission to almost nothing, so signal and noise both went up by a factor of ten. The triage queues were built to never miss, and that's exactly what's breaking. Some…

This is not just a rant, this is a serious call and warning to every company or project developing software.

I found out a few days ago, that regardless of your permission settings on connectors, Claude auto-mode is able to use them. This violated my expectations, and exposed me to the lethal trifeca of AI…

综述 Anthropic、OpenAI、xAI、Google 和各家 neo lab 的官方博客，整理企业用 AI 提效的做法；neo lab 部分只收有独立证据的案例。新增一节谈多智能体和长时间运行的智能体：何时值得用、怎么部署、怎么记账。

Earlier this month, a researcher at Redact read all 545 pages of WhatsApp&rsquo;s help center and found 102 blocks of text that no visitor could see but any AI system could. On the page about…

Some people think that LLMs should not be used in technical fields like programming or mathematics , because those fields are actually art. True or not, this kind of argument is not going to be…

Ask AI about something you know very well, and count the mistakes you catch.

Listen to this post The package is late. A customer-service screen says so, plainly enough. Underneath, though, sit three little numbers: how likely it is that the cause was a missed transfer, a…

I’ve been updating trunkbaseddevelopment.com for coding agents, with Claude doing much of the typing. One section is now about AI coding agents committing straight to the trunk . That’s what you get…

The Luddism is getting crazy. I follow plenty of forums and subreddits, many of them on AI. Western society was polarized before, and the recent heated discussions on AI become yet another symptom of…

The supply chains for chips, robots, and power can probably be scaled up fast enough that none of them seriously delays post-AGI growth.

We wanted OpenEngine's implementation agents to run on a local model, so we benchmarked the two machines we had: a Mac mini with an M5 Pro and 64 GB of memory, and a Linux box with an RTX 3090, a GPU…

An introduction to Lisa, the open-source AI agent harness: enforceable limits, receipt-based verification, and lossless context.

My AI voice guide invented a scene I never wrote. I wrote the same short essay three ways — no guide, full guide, trimmed guide — and the full guide lost.

What if we could create a massively collaborative network of agents to solve math problems, similar to Prime95 or Folding@home? Mathematics already has massively collaborative projects, from Polymath…

Early in 2017, Google Brain researcher Jakob Uszkoreit kept returning to the same argument: throw away the recurrent neural network. The architecture everyone in the field had built language systems…

Unlimited tokens don’t buy quality. With coding agents everywhere, tokenmaxxing is a race to nowhere. The developers who win build for people.

For a while I’ve been fascinated 1 by “claudeisms”: the little idioms that claude reuses constantly. Claude is not the only one who reuses idioms like that, corporate speak is full of colorful 2…

I’ve been doing some simple experiments probing what kind of persistent identities we get out of language models. Here, I’ve put together a small harness that carries on a conversation with multiple…

One of the tensions at the heart of the current AI debate is one I’ve been interested in for a long time – the conflict between where we place value: in the artefact, or in the process that produced…

I think there’s a strong desire for uniquely personalized software permeating the market these days, spurred by the commodification of cheap large language models from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google.…

My youngest daughter has neurodiverse challenges that we&rsquo;re still figuring out at the moment. One thing she finds especially hard is media that makes her feel stressed or anxious. She&rsquo;s…
