The Math Superstar Who’s Terrified of AI—and Just Took a Job at OpenAI
22+ min ago (199+ words) Jacob Tsimerman won the biggest prize in math. Now he’s working on the most important problem of his career. When he won the Fields Medal last week, Jacob Tsimerman accepted the most prestigious honor in math wearing a powder-blue tuxedo…...
Most AI Agent Failures Aren't Model Problems, They're Architecture Problems | HackerNoon
2+ week, 1+ day ago (1080+ words) An AI agent is an LLM running in a loop, calling tools, reasoning about what to do next, and iterating until it produces a final response. Five components make up this loop: This architecture is deceptively simple. The complexity emerges…...
Beyond Prompting: Context Engineering and Memory Management for AI Systems at Scale
1+ mon, 3+ week ago (993+ words) Live Webinar and Q&A: Below the Framework: Why Agent Context Is an Infrastructure Problem (Aug 27, 2026) Save Your Seat Holly Cummins discusses why "nothing is new under the sun" in tech. She maps historical architectural tradeoffs to modern cloud, microservices, and…...
Leonardo Felipe Nerone Believes Context Engineering Will Decide Which AI Agents Actually Work
5+ day, 10+ hour ago (879+ words) "A better model does not fix a system that has the wrong context," Nerone says. "If the agent does not know what it should know, cannot access what it needs, or sees information in the wrong way, the result will…...
AI helped produce two proofs for the same cryptography problem
1+ day, 13+ hour ago (695+ words) That day researchers submitted two preprint papers to arXiv.org. One was by Ragavan. The other was by Ananth and University of California, Los Angeles, professor Amit Sahai. Both papers credited OpenAI's newly released GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra with finding the…...
Your Dashboard Is Just a Data Model Wearing a Chart
55+ min ago (716+ words) Every dashboard project I have taken on was described to me as a front end problem. Charts, filters, a date range picker, maybe a CSV export. Then you open the codebase and find out the charts were never the problem....
From Software Engineer to AI Engineer - Part 3: Giving it a hand
48+ min ago (748+ words) As we have seen, models are conceptually quite simple: a list of input messages goes in and the model predicts the next token repeatedly to form the output message. It can't reach the internet or your database or Slack. And…...
Mathematicians may be worried, but AI-for-science is going to be great, recursively self-improving, and we’re going to learn loads — LessWrong
48+ min ago (355+ words) I have a new post on my experiments with 5.6-sol as a scientific agent; you can find the original post here. I've reproduced it below, as well. I'd be grateful for any feedback, thoughts, or to hear about experiments other…...
Block decomposition: how ClickHouse, Prometheus, and InfluxDB rediscovered the same fundamental algo | HackerNoon
3+ hour, 48+ min ago (893+ words) In general, sqrt-decomposition is a method (or a data structure) that allows you to proceed with the common aggregation operations (for example, calculating the sum of elements in a subarray, finding the minimum/maximum element, etc.) in O(sqrt(N)) operations....
The Shape of Failure: Before You Blame the AI
1+ hour, 33+ min ago (763+ words) Every automated system receives a particular shape of the world. That shape is expressed through records, documents, events, exceptions, and missing values. If the designers have not identified those forms—and the ways they can become malformed—the machine inherits…...
