The bottleneck for coding agents may not be code. It may be experience. A new ICML 2026 paper introduces Self-play SWE-RL (SSR): Toward Training Superintelligent Software Agents through Self-Play SWE-RL The question is simple and profound: How do you train software agents

Deep passage on physics: LLMs any world, humans our world, and Chomsky
By
–
this bit on physics is deep and actually resonates with the fact that LLMs are equally comfortable learning any world, whereas humans are built for our world.

FreeOcc: Training-Free Open-Vocabulary Occupancy Predictor
By

Neurosymbolic work by Swarat et al for Erdos, more quantitative than OpenAI
By

neurosymbolic by @swarat et al for Erdos's victory, with much more careful and quantitative work than OpenAI's in hindsight, I wonder if OpenAI rushed the release of theirs, knowing that this was coming?
