The models have updated but the biggest change is providers leaning in to them being "stochastic parrots," aka probabilistic computing, and if p(good response) > 0.5 then running the algorithm over and over again improves accuracy.
Of course it's gussied up as "mixture of agents" "reasoning traces" "agentic dispatching" but high-level it's Randomized Algorithms 101.

- Kim_Bruning 2mo agoOh, that's an interesting angle! Do you know of texts or concepts I can look up? It might improve my coding by quite a bit.
- Diogenesian 2mo agoI think this is still the classic reference (it's what I used in graduate school): https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/randomized-algorithms/6A3E5CD760B0DDBA3794A100EE2843E8 https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/randomized-algorithms/6...
