@basedjensen vision is a different beast! Google has consistently excelled here for a while; openai has more or less caught up. Anthropic has lagged since sonnet 4.

@scaling01 Gemini Flash and flash lite are absolute workhorses. Totally dominated document tasks at a decent price point until a few months ago

@jxmnop Simple. Cumulative sources for a PhD thesis can easily hit millions of tokens. Including those in the training set, or chunking them and trying to anticipate whats relevant are hacks because we can't just dump in context.

@MishaTeplitskiy I'm a quarter of the way through Dark sun after loving the first book. The minutiae of espionage is getting to be too much at this point. I am impressed at the detail, but also fine not knowing if the transfer of a specific experiment happened in August or September 44.

@OfirPress @bcherny @karpathy Gotta get gpt 5.2 and opus 4.5 on that benchmark.

@ensi_gudea HBO's Rome did an amazing job of lived in sets.

@jxnlco Seems like it all adding! Seemingly Innocent error handling has concealed some critical bugs in my projects recently.

@awesomekling I gave myself an 8 talking to a well known python consulting company a few years ago and got "can you point me to any of your conference talks?"

@lateinteraction I generally agree with you, but if someone is experimenting with training/steering the compiler llm or has a prompt-intensive algorithm, it's more difficult to use a 4.1

@lateinteraction Add brevity to the objective

Search the brevity-accuracy pareto frontier if you really want to go hard.

@NirantK Weave is their tracing product. Would be nice to use it too. Everyone is converging on the same tracing api, wonder how differentiated the rest of the experience is.

[Jacob Jensen @JJensenOnCS]

@seconds_0 Snoo did this already.

@finbarrtimbers What kind of specific scenario can you envision? I'm also optimistic, I worked on implementing Bayesian optimization algos for a while. There's many variations to adapt to new settings and analyzed pretty well with llm help. Caveat: results are workshop grade not breakthrough.

@LinkofSunshine Every nerv safeguard system fails, but the alerting works perfectly!

@LemmySmackett Honestly this was a lot more bittersweet in Metamorphosis of the Prime Intellect.

@Sauers_ @allhands_ai , fully open source as a bonus.
