Has anyone also switched their (free) daily driver from ChatGPT to Gemini for more professional or logic oriented tasks?

You still do feature engineering though? I don’t see context engineering very different from feature engineering.

[Chris Albon @chrisalbon]

This is actually how it feels.

Remember feature engineering?

Case in point was trying to optimise a SQL query. It gave several good ideas to optimise it. Put in the suggested optimised query in another chat and it "optimised" it again. You can repeat this process many times and after a point the optimisation don't make sense.

Working with LLMs is funny. Sometimes they feel like magic, and sometimes they feel dumb. And all of this can happen in the same hour.

Any pointers to good resources (papers/blogs) on Agentic AI? Basically looking for in depth understanding of how the recent state of the art systems work.

Has anyone found a way to keep up with latest ML talks on Youtube? There are a lot of interesting talks being put on by big names, but there are not very discoverable.

e.g. how could I have found @srush_nlp's o1 talk earlier?

I stopped doing CV research because I saw the impact my work was having. I loved the work but the military applications and privacy concerns eventually became impossible to ignore.

I see a lots of requests asking for slides and recordings after a talk. Wonder if actually someone reads them or it it just one more item on the todo list.

@akshay326_ were you able to use it to solve some bug?

[Abhishek Sharma @abhish_eksharma]

@rdesh26 You could get O1?

What is the most accurate free-to-use LLM today? I tried a simple question with few free LLMs (Claude, ChatGPT, PaLM, Bard) and only Bard got it right consistently.
The simple question was "Should you use a or an with the word "high"?"

@mdlhx @mdredze The timeline was accelerated for me. All of the three stages in an year!
