We’re also testing our models on real world lab experience. We worked with Red Queen Bio to test models to optimize protocols in the lab. GPT-5 proposed, ran (via a controlled framework), and iterated on experiments — increasing a standard molecular cloning protocol's

Weight Decay: Soft Pruning of Noisy Features in Neural Networks
By
–
Weight decay is usually presented as “encouraging simpler solutions”, but I tend to think that the real benefit is the soft pruning of noisy / unhelpful features. Without decay, a weight can random-walk to a large value even if the input is completely random. Momentum and

SWE-Playground: Synthetic Data Generation for Versatile Coding Agents
By
–

There are many good training methods for improving agents on SWE-bench: SWE-Gym, SWE-Smith, R2E-Gym. But what about broader software engineering tasks? In SWE-Playground, we introduce a new, more diverse synthetic data generation strategy to train divers software agents. Yiqi Zhu (@StephenZhu0218) Introducing SWE-Playground: A fully automated pipeline that generates synthetic environments to train versatile coding agents. 🤖✨ Training software engineering agents often relies on existing resources like GitHub issues and focuses on solving SWE-bench style issue resolution tasks. While this has driven incredible progress, real-world engineering involves a wider spectrum of tasks —from designing new libraries to writing reproduction scripts. 🌐 Rather than mining existing repositories, SWE-Playground synthetically generates projects, tasks, and verifiable unit tests from scratch. This approach offers two exciting opportunities: 1️⃣ Flexibility: We can generate tasks without being constrained by the availability or structure of existing open-source data. 2️⃣ Versatility: We extend training beyond Issue Resolution to include Issue Reproduction and Library Generation from Scratch. The results? 🚀 Our agents achieve strong performance across SWE-bench Verified, SWT-Bench, and Commit-0, demonstrating high data efficiency compared to baselines trained on larger datasets. Huge thanks to my amazing collaborators @apurvasgandhi and @gneubig for their incredible efforts on bringing this work to life! 👇 🧵 A deep dive into how we build versatile agents synthetically.

Frontier Models Struggle with Abstract Reasoning Tasks

NEW research on abstract reasoning. Frontier models like GPT-5 and Grok 4 still can't do what humans find trivially easy: infer transformation rules from a handful of examples. The default approach to solving ARC-AGI (the leading benchmark for abstract reasoning) treats these

3. Tree of Thoughts (ToT)
— God of Prompt (@godofprompt) 16 décembre 2025
Linear thinking gets linear results. ToT explores multiple reasoning paths simultaneously.
Instead of A→B→C, the model explores A→B→C, A→D→E, and A→F→G, then picks the best path.

Tesla philosophy: cameras see as well as humans, especially at night

The Tesla philosophy is that if a human can see it so can their cars. Often way better than a human can, especially at night. The point is a little obtuse but our roads were designed for humans. Cameras are enough. And on screen you can see it is perceiving the world around the
