I don't understand how people are using LLMs to deliver research projects autonomously, if they care about accuracy! I've just spent a day or so recreating an experiment (a fairly simple one), but most of the time has been devoted to stopping it spin a n 'impactful' conclusion... despite the data!

The missing piece from all this coverage is the harness. People focus on the LLM, but we need to engineer better harnesses, which reduce inaccurate generations, through context management, and constrained tools. The capability of the whole system is different to that of the LLM! It's not covered.

Finnish nature photographer Lassi Rautiainen followed a female grey wolf (Canis lupus) & a male brown bear (Ursos arctos) for 10 days. They played together, shared meals, napped together. Both were young adults. They appeared to be... friends? (📷: Lassi Rautiainen, www.wildfinland.org)

A brown bear and a grey wolf on a green grassy plain, both looking in the same direction, with strange wispy trees out of focus and concealed in fog in the distance. The suggestion is of a land of magic where bears and wolves are friends.

Mangroves, vital for protecting coastlines and storing carbon, are making an unexpected comeback due to increased legal protections and public awareness of their importance. Since 2010, the rate of mangrove loss has slowed down, with more forests being restored than destroyed.

AI has not changed the way software is built. Code is written using the same syntax, version controlled using the same version control systems, compiled using the same compilers, deployed to the same servers, and neglected by the same developers.
