Very cool. By the way, you can render many more datapoints on mobile if you use WebGL. Here’s a similar example - embeddings rendered using a T-SNE layout
I presume it only recognised the BBC journalists efforts as satire due to the article in which he clearly states that this was his intention? Without that, I’m am confident it would have fallen for it.
Funny coincidence - I visited that valley for the first time just last week, on my way to the Isle of Skye.
And as a further coincidence, I met Jimmy Saville about 25 years ago. I was in Leeds hospital after a heart operation, and this old and somewhat scruffy track suited guy just walks in to the ward and starts talking to me. I had no idea who he was. After he left, a nurse asked “did you speak to Jimmy?”. It was creepy and unnerving seeing first hand how he just got to roam around.
I can confirm, the graffiti-covered Saville residence has almost completely been demolished.
Very true, with the right feedback loop AI would do a wonderful job of refactoring.
But if AI is the primary author and consumer of this code, that would be an unnecessary step. No need to clean it up for our feeble little human minds.
I was just interested in what this file actually does - and am finding it hard to grok, scrolling through on a mobile device!
I used to find Gary Marcus a good antidote to the AI hype, and followed his critique. But honestly, his more recent writings are clutching at straws. This article feels like desperation.
It’s a bit like saying that driving cars still requires human muscles to operate the controls, so human strength has ‘won’, when it is clearly the internal combustion engine that has created the speed advantage of the car.
Looks interesting. Quick question - one of the biggest challenges with agentic systems in non-deterministic behaviour. Does this framework do anything to address this? Does it help test and validate agent behaviour?
My random claim to fame; I was the support act (juggler) for Norman Lovett (the red dwarf ships computer), for one night only in the Welsh town of Bangor.
I know it’s a minor point, but it bugs me every time this form pops up…
Captive (noun): a person or animal whose ability to move or act freely is limited by being kept in a space; a prisoner, especially a person held by the enemy during a war.
D3fc maintainer here. A few years back we added WebGL support to D3fc (a component library for people building their own charts with D3), allowing it to render 1m+ datapoints:
An important point here is that it isnt doing a 1-shot implementation, it is iteratively solving a problem over multiple iterations, with a closed feedback loop.
Create the right agentic feedback loop and a reasoning model can perform far better through iteration than its first 1-shot attempt.
This is very human. How much code can you reliable write without any feedback? Very little. We iterate, guided by feedback (compiler, linter, executing and exploring)
