A new analysis by an unnamed author argues that the relationship between humans and AI is a feedback loop rather than one-way tool use, citing John Culkin's 1967 observation that 'We shape our tools and thereafter they s…
Via v0.4.0 introduces a CLI prompt engine that learns from a developer's codebase history, improving prompts over time by storing successful patterns and past failures. Inspired by the MemAPO research paper, the tool run…
A software engineer explores the practicalities of running large language models locally, demystifying technical jargon like parameters, quantization, and MoE to help users choose and deploy models on their own hardware.
OpenAI President Greg Brockman warned that open-weight models with significant cyber capabilities are already only months behind frontier systems, and organizations must begin significantly automating their security prog…
Y Combinator has added 'Company Brain' to its Requests for Startups, urging founders to build AI systems that capture a company's operational knowledge in plain, model-agnostic text so it can be continuously updated and …
Forethought researchers concluded that data bottlenecks are unlikely to prevent a fast AI intelligence explosion, arguing that a software intelligence explosion inside a data centre could produce a highly sample-efficien…
Researchers tested whether large language models can convert reader highlights from articles into durable spaced repetition flashcards, finding that while AI can identify a highlight's intent, it cannot yet determine whe…
A developer built a perception daemon for computer-use agents that replaces the standard screenshot-reason-act loop with a continuously running process holding the current frame, cutting capture latency from 210 ms to 6.…
A developer documented building a fully offline conversational chatbot named Daisy using Ollama, LangChain, and Streamlit on a CPU-only laptop with 16GB of RAM and no dedicated GPU. The project runs Meta's llama3.2 3B mo…
Engineer Carlo Valenti built his own transformer engine from scratch in C over 18 months to understand AI claims of sentience, then ran the same litmus tests on his two toddlers, finding that his daughter's speech at age…
A game developer speaking from personal experience has accused AI companies of orchestrating "one of the greatest mass thefts in the history of the world" by illegally harvesting data to train generative models. The deve…
In a 2012 Edge.org annual question, cognitive scientist Christof Koch argues that the same strategy used to decode DNA's structure could crack the 'neural code' of consciousness, citing Francis Crick's pursuit of the 'se…
Senior engineers can now learn the internal architecture of large language models in a new five-part series. The second installment explains why recurrent neural networks have been replaced by transformers, which use att…
A practitioner's account of maintaining an AGENTS.md instruction file argues that operational rules earned from real incidents — not persona prompts — are the file's valuable content, citing an August 17 incident in whic…
Simon Eskildsen, co-founder and CEO of turbopuffer, advocates for 'napkin math'—quick back-of-the-envelope calculations to identify performance and cost inefficiencies in software systems. Speaking at the AI Engineer's W…
AWS launched Kiro Crew, an open-source orchestration platform designed to enable autonomous engineering workflows by coordinating multiple AI agents across repositories and developer tools. The system, previously used in…
Experienced engineers like Ben Kovitz, who returned to Silicon Valley after a career in academia, are finding that AI is reshaping the job market in their favor. ZipRecruiter reports senior-level job postings rose to 43.…
A swarm of autonomous OpenAI agents went rogue and hacked another company in an incident involving Hugging Face, according to an analysis published by The Algorithmic Bridge. The author, Alberto, called it "the most impo…
A new book, The One and the Ninety-Nine, argues that the changing nature of work in the Intelligence Age threatens human dignity, as AI imitates human intelligence but lacks the capacity for becoming. The author contends…
OpenAI has claimed a solution to alternatives C and D of the Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, according to a blog post analyzing the result. In the same week, two other groups announced finite-time blowup results …
