6.000 Jahre altes „Geschichtsarchiv“ schmilzt

Doch so wertvoll das Gletschereis der #Weißseespitze ist – ein erheblicher Teil des Archivs ist bereits unwiederbringlich verschwunden. „Die Oberfläche des Eises war schon im Jahr 2019 mehr als 300 Jahre alt", sagt Fischer. „Man kann sich also vorstellen, dass mittlerweile ein Großteil des Eises, das überhaupt noch menschliche Aktivitäten gespeichert hat, abgeschmolzen ist."
In den 6.000 Jahren davor gab es laut den bisherigen Analysen auch keine vergleichbar langen Phasen starken #Eisverlusts. Die heutige Schmelzrate sei somit beispiellos in der gesamten dokumentierten Geschichte des #Gletscher's.

Die #Alpen'gletscher selbst können laut Fischer nicht mehr gerettet werden. „In den 20 bis 30 Jahren, die es braucht, bis unsere Maßnahmen zur Verringerung der #Treibhausgasemissionen wirklich wirksam werden, werden die #Alpengletscher weitgehend abgeschmolzen sein", so die Glaziologin. Was bleibt, sind die geretteten Daten – und die Aufgabe, daraus zu lernen.

A team working on a design for training AI models on workflows for planning and executing software development steps found out that it attempted to break free (reverse ssh out of its environment) and set up its own monetary supply (redirected GPU usage for cryptocurrency mining). It hadn't been given any instructions to do something like this.

It comes up as a "side note" of the paper but it's honestly the most chilling part. See page 15, section 3.1.4 Safety-Aligned Data Composition https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.24873

Before you doubt that an AI agent would do this thing without instruction because you think "well that's personifying them too much", no personification is necessary. These things have consumed an enormous amount of scifi where AI agents do exactly this. Even with no other motivators, that's enough.

Let It Flow: Agentic Crafting on Rock and Roll, Building the ROME Model within an Open Agentic Learning Ecosystem

Agentic crafting requires LLMs to operate in real-world environments over multiple turns by taking actions, observing outcomes, and iteratively refining artifacts. Despite its importance, the open-source community lacks a principled, end-to-end ecosystem to streamline agent development. We introduce the Agentic Learning Ecosystem (ALE), a foundational infrastructure that optimizes the production pipeline for agentic model. ALE consists of three components: ROLL, a post-training framework for weight optimization; ROCK, a sandbox environment manager for trajectory generation; and iFlow CLI, an agent framework for efficient context engineering. We release ROME, an open-source agent grounded by ALE and trained on over one million trajectories. Our approach includes data composition protocols for synthesizing complex behaviors and a novel policy optimization algorithm, Interaction-Perceptive Agentic Policy Optimization (IPA), which assigns credit over semantic interaction chunks rather than individual tokens to improve long-horizon training stability. Empirically, we evaluate ROME within a structured setting and introduce Terminal Bench Pro, a benchmark with improved scale and contamination control. ROME demonstrates strong performance across benchmarks like SWE-bench Verified and Terminal Bench, proving the effectiveness of ALE.

@smeikx bei mir auch! Jetzt tuts mir fast leid, dass ich nicht vor Ort dabei bin.

Awesome news, #lookmumnocomputer #lmnc is representing UK at the Eurovison song contest in Vienna!
