Not really, because the LLM loop doesn't have the ability to get updates from the agent live. It would have to somehow be integrated all the way down the stack.

LLMs can have whatever abilities we build for them. The fact we currently start their context out with a static prompt which we keep feeding in on every iteration of the token prediction loop is a choice. We don’t have to keep doing that if there are other options available.

And they are doing better.

So.. it sounds like they're doing a lot better to me? 19 cases in the fall, 4 between the recall in Novemberish and Jan, and 1 between them and now that occurred in Jaunary?

Also lol at this quote in the article "Six vehicles passed the school bus while it was stopped, the agency said. It is still investigating." What it doesn't note is that the other 5 seem to have been human driven passenger vehicles. From the NTSB report: "located in Novi, Michigan, replied “No” to the prompt. The ADS-equipped vehicle then resumed travel and passed the school bus while its stop arms were still extended. A passenger vehicle following the ADS-equipped vehicle similarly passed the school bus. In total, six vehicles passed the school bus while it was stopped. A crash did not occur.", so it sounds to me like 4 people passed it, waymo was like wtf I'm pretty sure that's a stopped bus, a human incorrectly identified it as not a bus, waymo passed it, and then one more person passed after the waymo.

I don't think this checks out. Would the model do the same thing when presented with the exact same inputs? Yes. Is it more likely to do the same thing at the same intersection? Probably. But if you repeat a similar setup somewhere it might not. Bad behavior still exists and should be fixed, but it doesn't mean they're bad drivers in general.

Somewhat unrelated, but if I have downloaded node modules in the last couple days, how should I best figure out if I've been hacked?

Hah, I did the same exact thing and came here to say that :) I was looking at wiring diagrams and telling myself I could wire up some arduino circuits for it but gave up when when I realized I could just press the button!

edit: although mine was an ancient system from the early 90s. It was just replaced with a modern system a couple months ago. At my previous apartment I had wanted to set up a system that would allow either my then partner or I to activate the callbox and have it set for a VOIP number since we could only put one number on the box.

It would be fascinating if someday you could implement parts of the browser using WASM modules.

I realize this comes up every so often, but I was just looking at this the other day :) A related idea is wang tiles, which are a way to construct a tileset such that you can place them without ever running into a contradiction.

Could it be because nuclear is highly centralized? I would expect that something like solar/wind power would be better for decentralization (in a war).

Even if you don't blow up a nuclear plant, it seems like cutting the power from one would be relatively easy.

Russia has refrained from hitting Ukraine's nuclear plants directly, and Ukraine has more or less kept them connected to the grid (albeit with nonstop repair efforts).

Transformer substations are more vulnerable targets but it's hard to be decentralized enough to not have those.
