Very similar to SDF (now dbt Fusion) and SQLMesh, altimate-code has #deterministic SQL linter capabilities, not based on scanning the full project via bash that might take minutes, but in seconds and sub-seconds.

And we check #limitations the future holds due to the imprecise way of natural language, e.g., "give me the analytics for this week?" Did you mean "from today until last week"?

Or how data workloads need to be #deterministic and #reproducible to backfill faulty data, but AI agents aren't that.

The case of “vegetative electron microscopy” illustrated here shows what is badly needed in current #LLM research and has implications far beyond. We need tools that help us curate huge corpora. We need to be able to trace #hallucinations back to the training data and understand what are the specific (to a surprise, often #deterministic) reasons in the model input that cause that particular output.

If anyone is interested in collaborating on this, I'm in, have done some small-scale experiments and have already submitted a grant proposal.

A weird phrase is plaguing scientific papers – and we traced it back to a glitch in AI training data

Once errors creep into the AI knowledge base, they can be very hard to get out.

Ah, another brave soul attempting to document the earth-shattering epiphanies gleaned from their #mundane #AI encounter. 🤖🎉 Just what the world needed: another thrilling tale of #deterministic #simulations and performance numbers, because clearly, there's a drought of mind-numbingly #boring AI #posts. 🙄📈

I feel like I got substantial value out of Claude today, and want to document it. I am at the tail end of AI adoption, so I don't expect to say anything particularly useful or novel. However, I am constantly complaining about the lack of boring AI posts, so it's only proper if I write one.

4/ Because the Mind is the idea of the Body, it is perfectly "parallel" to it. Whatever happens to the Body (which is subject to the #deterministic laws of #physics/#nature) is perfectly and simultaneously reflected in the Mind as a corresponding sequence of ideas (thoughts).

It looks like a situation where careful deterministic programming by someone with some understanding of both sides of the transaction should work.
Two matching modules might work even better.
They might even help people who find that difficult a little.

Throwing books about other things into a bucket and picking out scraps does not seem a superior approach.
