MIT CSAIL Reality Check: Robotics Hype vs Real-World Progress
By
–
Thank you @MIT_CSAIL for explaining where we really are with robotics in the real-world. Don’t believe the hype from the cherry picked videos. Robotics tech is a work in progress – search space and complexity of the real-world with the need to respond dynamically on the fly

Netflix Prize to LLMs: Evolution of Recommendation Systems
By
–
I keep thinking about how Netflix offered a $1M prize for people who could come up with a good recommendation system in the early 2000s, and now LLMs just offer great suggestions out-of-the-box based on next token prediction alone. Neat.

AI Limitations: Self-Explanation and Jailbreaking Techniques
By
–
Continuing on the theme, a microcosm of why AI is weird – I ask it to explain itself and it makes some stuff up as justification (AI can't interrogate its own thoughts). Then I essentially do some lightweight jailbreaking by using its own logic against it.

Semiconductor fab complexity and potential simplification possibilities
By
–
A state of the art fab today may be the most complex and sophisticated thing built by humans; you can’t “just go build one” and compete with TSMC given any amount of resources. However, they are general purpose systems with a lot of flexibility. How much simpler could they get
