🎯 Local model benchmarking • Open-weight model development • Consumer hardware constraints
💬 "Ornith-1.0-9B was worse than Qwen3.5-9B which should've been reversed"
• "9B model benchmarks competitively with Sonnet 4 which is pretty cool"

"Large language model (LLM) agents can now post-train an LLM end-to-end. They can write code, launch training, evaluate checkpoints, and improve downstream performance, raising the prospect of AI-for-AI. We argue that this picture conflates two distinct capabilities: execution-level capability, itera..."

"Language-model agents can communicate through continuous hidden states that are invisible in public transcripts, creating opportunities for covert harmful coordination. We introduce Verifiable Latent Alignments (VLA), an activation-aware framework for monitoring and steering these private communicat..."

"Frontier language models are compared, marketed, and benchmarked on capability -- what their best or average output can achieve. I argue this measures the wrong axis. The models have saturated accuracy: their mean output lands on the target. What now separates one system from another in practice is..."

🎯 AI-Human Balance • Understanding vs. Results • Values & Incentives
💬 "We don't need to be all in or all out"
• "A proof that no human can properly explain should be viewed as incomplete"

🎯 AI estimation accuracy • Technical debt automation • Project scope skepticism
💬 "Long tedious and highly testable projects like ports or legacy system replacements where humans have to grind through millions of lines of code without really thinking are the perfect target for AI."
• "The power is no longer in our hands, for good or bad."

"Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly paired with verifiers (step checkers, self-consistency filters, tool-based fact checkers, formal proof assistants) that claim to detect the model's errors. Yet the verification literature uses the word "level" to mean at least five different things: veri..."

"When an expert corrects an LLM assistant's error, the correction usually dies with the session, and the error class returns. I argue this is an operations problem, not a tooling problem: mechanisms for persisting corrections exist and are shipping, but the discipline for governing them -- versioning..."

"Continuous self-improvement requires an ever-expanding pool of self-generated, diverse, adaptive goals. For language agents, existing training environment pools (hand-curated, statically synthesized, or frozen-verifier) keep the goal distribution fixed as the learner scales. We introduce SPADE (Self..."

"Humans continuously learn from experience, whereas conventional large language model (LLM) evaluations ignore the models' ability to improve through inference-time interaction. In this paper, we study how LLMs learn from iterative experience at test time, a setting we refer to as Chain-of-Experience..."

"We describe an inference-time architectural enhancement for off-the-shelf foundation models that markedly reduces perplexity and boosts accuracy across generation and reasoning tasks. Our approach incurs essentially no additional latency during generation, though it requires serial processing in the..."

"Small language models can grade open-ended examination answers as reliably as substantially more expensive models when they grade against an explicit rubric.

However, the reliability aspects of these methods have been critically overlooked. In this work, we conduct a..."
