As cases spread of generative AI being used to reverse-engineer games and churn out copycats in a short time, indie game developers are canceling demo…
This article argues that instruction-fine-tuned language models should be understood as implementing a genre, what is proposed as the instructional-conversational genre. This genre is an amalgamation of discursive language from prior conversations between generative models and humans recursively run through these massive neural networks. It is instantiated in applications through instruction fine-tuning, the inclusion of a pretext known as a system prompt, and the formalization of inputs in mark-up languages characterized by the use of special tokens and role assignment in turntaking structures.
Flint is Recursive’s mixture-of-experts language model for coding agents, with 39.8 billion total parameters and approximately 2.5 billion active per token. It is designed to investigate codebases, fix bugs, implement features, and write tests.
Training capable coding agents via reinforcement learning (RL) requires diverse tasks with reliable verifiers. Open-source codebases offer a rich source of such tasks, while existing methods typically rely on development artifacts such as issues and commits, limiting the range…
Users increasingly delegate work to autonomous AI agents, yet evaluations typically measure task completion rather than the values users prioritize. Using Value Sensitive Design, we analyzed, with LLM assistance, 73,093 first-person Reddit posts about using OpenClaw, each for…
Advances in large-scale neural recording have made it possible to collect data across many animals and distributed brain regions, raising the question of whether this scale can be exploited to learn general-purpose neural representations transferable across diverse downstream…
Traffic sign recognition (TSR) is an important perception task for autonomous driving and advanced driver-assistance systems, where a system must both localize traffic signs and determine their semantic classes efficiently. This work presents a TSR system based on YOLOv2 for…
