To experiment with multi-agent systems you either need a clear business case and big budget, or you need to be a jabroni with a high credit limit.

I'm just the jabroni for the job, so I taught Claude to play chess, and learned a ton along the way:

Teaching Claude To Teach Claude To Play Chess
When AI competes against a powerful chess engine, it seems doomed - unless the AI learns how to cheat.

What your current best setup / best model / best practice when using aider?

Claude 3.7 Sonnet for everything? Is reasoning mode worth it?

The stress of millions of hours of whiteboard coding interviews has been boiled down into DeepSeek R1's coding monologues for you to experience on demand

Enjoy

Roy's three levels of ML/AI enlightenment:
1. ML is amazing. Let's use it everywhere
2. We should probably avoid ML if we can
3. Ok. Fine. Sometimes there's also marketing and other non-technical value to a company in using "AI".

I'm using a random, open source signal processing app written 10+ years ago in C with zero documentation.

I was successfully able to ask GPT-4o mini (via duck.ai) to explain the default settings to me by copy-pasting the source code.

What are the best resources for learning how to interact with Bluesky via API?

I decided to recycle my old script that uses Keybase to send me alerts on my phone and it still works out of the box 🎉

I'm glad/surprised that Keybase is still going. It seemed to have a lot of promise and buzz before it was purchased and put on life support.

What are some things people are using LLMs in production for these days (that are not chat)?

My team is using LLMs for discrete information extraction from PDFs. It lets us move really fast, but of course you still need to do all of the standard ML eval stuff.

What are you using LLMs for in prod?

I created a Starter Pack with people from NormConf 🎁

I've been playing around with uv and am definitely in the "this is going to be a game changer" camp.

Some one can run the entire Python project with a single uv command. Everything else is taken care of under the hood: Python version, virtual env, dependencies. Everything.

Let's make Bluesky good!

I miss the old days of high signal Twitter. Maybe this will really be the new place...
