this is impressive and actually matches my expectations in terms of near term AI progress. we are going to continue to seem impressive progress in coding & related, anything where verifiability is scalable in an automated way: https:&#

As part of the Holistic Agent Leaderboard (HAL) initiative at Princeton CITP, we evaluated more than 220 agent runs across 9 benchmarks, the equivalent of over 20,000 agent rollouts across 9 models and 9 benchmarks for a total cost of $40,0

By that definition, the ChatGPT app is now an AI agent. When you use ChatGPT nowadays, you can select different models and complement these models with tools like web search and image creation. It’s no longer a simple text-in / text-ou

Exactly. I think the study is a good reminder that we really have to be careful about the productivity gains attributed to AI. Main takeaway imo, despite limitations from the study, is AI is not a panacea, it can increase productivity, but

I am tired of seeing this. First the Klarna dude did it and it backfired. Now Andy... People fail to grasp the fact that building AI agents is no longer enough, you need to do more: https://medium.com/thoughts-on-machine-lea

the smolagents library is also pretty nice to do the scaffolding around the model. Text to sql seems simple in demos, but to make it work in real life complex cases is very hard: https://medium.com/thoughts-on-machine-learni

I can be frustrating at times. but my experience is the more you try the better you become at knowing what to ask and to expect. But I guess you understand now why some people say vibe coding is a bit overrated: https://www.lycee

and setting up postgresql on a simple VPS is so easy... You can literally ask Gemini 2.5 Pro or o3 or Sonnet 3.7 and do it in 15-30 minutes... Learned helplessness is really something and vibe coding is overrated imo: https://ww

True. Deep learning models will continue to improve as we feed them more data and use more compute, but they will still fail at even very simple tasks as long as the input data are outside their training distribution. The numerous examples

why would anyone accept to expose sensitive data so easily with MCP ? also MCP does not make AI agents more reliable, it just gives them access to more tools, which can decrease reliability in some cases: https://medium.com/t

true. SAP is more of an entrenched SaaS. Once you have it, the switching costs are too high later on. What an amazing kind of biz. The stickiness is crazy.

so you are telling me that hallucinations (that by definition happen at the model layer) are an engineering problem ? so if we just spin up the right architecture, hallucinations won't be a problem anymore ? I have doubts

So what is it with MCP? It’s just the latest hype-infused hysteria of the architecture astronauts. And please, “don’t let architecture astronauts scare you.” https://www.lycee.ai/blog/why-mcp-is-mostly-bullshit
