Summary

All right, should we get started, Jeff?. Yeah, I'm afraid I've lost my voice.

Why listen

It goes beyond the title with direct discussion of know, think, really, including: All right, Jeff, welcome.

Key takeaways
  1. 01Yeah, I mean, I feel like the models have been getting a lot better at sort of agent-based, longer-running coding tasks
  2. 02And I also think outside of coding, these agent-based systems are really starting to shine in other domains
  3. 03I think you will see a lot more automation of ML systems themselves, basically getting ML systems to improve their capabilities by running lots of experiments, breaking things down
Best for
research-minded practitioners comparing model behavior
