@visakanv Whizzing

Positive aspirations that I'm a savant (whiz) and can give the full result with half the effort. Also includes the speed of 50%, all early, fast/short not slow like HAing. Cheeky potty humor remains.

Aside: Too many kept -assing, being an ass is the problem.

This seemed almost too obvious, but I couldn't find it already out there:

I packaged up the "autoresearch" project into a new self-contained minimal repo if people would like to play over the weekend. It's basically nanochat LLM training core stripped down to a single-GPU, one file version of ~630 lines of code, then:

- the human iterates on the prompt (.md)
- the AI agent iterates on the training code (.py)

The goal is to engineer your agents to make the fastest research progress indefinitely and without any of your own involvement. In the image, every dot is a complete LLM training run that lasts exactly 5 minutes. The agent works in an autonomous loop on a git feature branch and accumulates git commits to the training script as it finds better settings (of lower validation loss by the end) of the neural network architecture, the optimizer, all the hyperparameters, etc. You can imagine comparing the research progress of different prompts, different agents, etc.

Part code, part sci-fi, and a pinch of psychosis :)

Nearly 5 years later and this thread still slaps (or whatever they kids say now)

The idea of an MVP as a "minimum viable product" is in itself a terrible MVP.

As does the long form

Might be time for another one of these that 'hits different' 👀

@LubaSays The top of gen z will be fine

The middle 50% had to drudge through HS and college hating math or whatever to look for entry level work same as all before them

When they try to settle into career-level roles they'll be competing with younger human/AI hybrids, good luck

[Peter🍳 @PeterW__]

With all of this "kids will learn so much better with AI tutors" and public schools being at least 10 years slow:

Gen Z is about to be the be Lost Generation

Gemini bad: summarizing emails

Gemini good: Cunningham's Law-ing yourself

Thanks for the fun read @Alex_Danco!

For some reason this is the funniest thing I've seen in days

@NathanLands Are those not real words or something? I would think Record, Desert, and Murdered are more problematic

[Peter🍳 @PeterW__]

@hutchins @gregisenberg GPT-4o, GPT-3.5, and Gemini got this right (all in a list with 2-4 others so partial credit)

Claude (Domans' book, after a fake invention) and Meta (research article) gave single answers

@hutchins @gregisenberg After asking a whole host of AIs, these were the 4 most likely options:

If anyone has a guess let me know

I forgot a key detail of *reading* app

Thought of @MentavaInc but they still seem to be in an apply phase, not a download-and-free-trial one

[Peter🍳 @PeterW__]

@hutchins what is this $500/mo toddler learning app?

And more importantly, what is the $17 book?

@PeterW__ We’ve quietly opened up registration with a 7-day free trial https://t.co/PehTRAE8l0

But we also recommend the book Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons for anyone looking for a cheaper option. It’s $17 on Amazon and it’s excellent
