Some intriguing things to read... just for you!
  • Code Is All You Need - an interesting take on MCP's and how they aren't likely to be the big solve to taking LLMs to the next level.
  • Hierarchical Reasoning Model (HRM) Analysis - that's a mouthful of a name but it's worth noting these early insights on a different approach to AI. I fully admit to this being over my head but it serves as a reminder that anytime you're frustrated with the state of AI, remember that it's basically a teenager. Changes are afoot.
  • Artificial Labor - mostly an article about how musicians are trying their damndest to get politicians to make streaming platforms pay artists but also a pretty wild story about musician Emily Portman, who recently had a new album release much to her surprise. It was entirely AI generated music, likely trained on her own voice, and released without her knowledge or permission. Not good.
