“While Silicon Valley is investing tens of billions of dollars chasing the AGI dream, academic computing research in the U.S. is facing a severe drought.”

This really adds to some of the anecdotes I’ve heard regarding the competitiveness of the CS academic track now.

Getting the data model right is key to getting the product right, and I wholeheartedly agree with it. Great examples to show in product meetings.

Why is it that we craft our work so AI can understand but we do not do so for people?

But what they cannot do is maintain clear mental models.

LLMs get endlessly confused: they assume the code they wrote actually works; when test fail, they are left guessing as to whether to fix the code or the tests; and when it gets frustrating, they just delete the whole lot and start over.

This is exactly the opposite of what I am looking for.

I believe that language models aren’t world models. It’s a weak claim — I’m not saying they’re useless, or that we’re done milking them. It’s also a fuzzy-sounding claim — with its trillion weights, who can prove that there’s something an LLM isn’t a model of?
