“👆 A paranoid LLM is ofc worse. This is just tuning a prior belief up or down. I guess you could self distill additional context for the train data e.g. "you know arxiv.org is such and such" or "this is an unknown source" with the hope it generalises (and al…”

Nafnlaus 🇮🇸 🇺🇦: This might be just what I need. Based on the architecture, this would probably be $0,10/1M in and $0,60-0,80/1M out, I'd think. But yet probably still good enough for vibe coding, for managing AI t…

“Wrote another brief post motivated by a reflection on how in AI research folks might not fully appreciate the care that working with unobservable constructs requires. TL;DR -- Because unobservable constructs hold ‘surplus meaning,’ your metric is not your c…”

“Hugging Face was hacked last week and had to use GLM 5.2 as part of their analysis of the attack because U.S. frontier model safeguards blocked usage for cybersecurity purposes. Chinese open weight models are definitely having a moment. Anthropic can’t get …”

David Marx: I'm not convinced this is a bad thing. Does managing context "well" mean "quietly"? If you pack the LLMs context with your entire codebase, it'll have all of the information you need and won't go t…
