Reposted by Joergen KornfeldBoneJ @bonej.org · 11/09/2026LLMs have helped speed up and improve the quality of engineering new features and fixing bugs. For us, they're power tools that help skilled people work more effectively - in the same way that circular saws, nail guns and CNC machines help properly trained people build things in the physical world. 012

Did we spend 2 decades consolidating fragmented software ecosystems into platforms only to see them dissolve through "vibe coding"? www.nature.com/articles/s41...nature.comDisruption of the research software landscape through AI software generation - Nature MethodsSpecialized research software has historically been costly and time-consuming to create, but large language models (LLMs) have become capable enough at code generation to fundamentally change this.

Congratulations to everyone involved 😊🎉 Check out interactive 3D models, analysis you can perform in your browser, & our interactive matrices; all on the website! songbird-connectomics.org 0124
Joergen Kornfeld @jmrko.bsky.social · 01/10/2025Long story short: PRISM has the potential to solve the connectomics reconstruction bottleneck for good. Fantastic collaboration with E11, MIT, and the Crick! 061
