The example sentences generated “only from neural data” at the top of this article seem surprisingly accurate to me, like, not exact matches but much better than what I would expect even from 10k hours:

“the room seemed colder” -> “ there was a breeze even a gentle gust”

This looks cool but I’m confused exactly how the compilation is supposed to work, and the docs[1] don’t make it any clearer. Is it promoting an LLM to try to get it to generate deterministic code to do the task?

This website was a part of my education as a computer scientist and seeing it here again I'm curious for the full story of how this site was made. Who made it, what do they do now, is it part of a broader project they have?

There is only very basic info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Euler

This is aesthetically very pleasing but the contents of the sections currently either don't load for me or load very slowly.
