And at the same time In Super Mario Kart (SNES) the AI racers couldn’t get random items because of compute limitations (implementing individual random generators would have been to costly)

Early Video Game AI: If-Else Statements and Public Introduction
By
–
Has to be if-else statements. This was how video game AIs were originally implemented (starting with Pong, Space Space Invaders, PAC-Man).
Probably the first touch point of the general public with the term AI, where the term was deliberately used in a product for the general -
ARC Primary Focus with Sudoku as Retroactive Addition Example
By
–
Yes, very well said. Although, I do think this was primarily built with ARC in mind (for which there is no search algo) and Sudoku was added retroactively to show it is not specific to ARC.
The other thing about Sudoku is is that it is kind of easily self-verifiable. -
Tool-calling LLM with specialized units as tools

Lightning AI Cloud Compute Platform Offers Competitive GPU Pricing
By

I love this upgrade. Lightning AI is my go-to cloud compute platform due to its user-friendliness (great UI, persistent environment, multi-GPU and multi-node support, etc), and now the prices are also really great. An A100 for $1.55/hour through Lambda Labs or an H100 for $2.70 x.com/_willfalcon/st…

Interesting tidbit from the author wrt what resources it required. Yes, it’s still possible to do cool stuff without a data center.

Memory Limit Exceeded: Batch Size 2048 Exception Handling
By
–
You mean why it prints:
Batch size 256: …
not Batch size 2048: …
That's likely because the 2048 triggered the "except" due to exceeding the memory here.
It only prints the successful ones. -
Proprietary Data Essential for Meaningful Model Evaluation Beyond Public Benchmarks
By
–
I’d say using publicly available benchmarks and data are basically just sanity checks. As I mentioned mentioned in the conclusion, ideally you want/need to set up the eval with proprietary data that is related to your business problem, to make sure the performance is not due to
