Most developers treat prompting as an afterthought—write something reasonable, observe the output, and iterate if needed. That approach works until reliability becomes critical. As LLMs move into production systems, the difference between a prompt that usually works and one that works consistently becomes an engineering concern. In response, the research community has formalized prompting into…

Writing fast GPU code is one of the most grueling specializations in machine learning engineering. Researchers from RightNow AI want to automate it entirely. The RightNow AI research team has released AutoKernel, an open-source framework that applies an autonomous LLM agent loop to GPU kernel optimization for arbitrary PyTorch models. The approach is straightforward: give…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are the world’s best mimics, but when it comes to the cold, hard logic of updating beliefs based on new evidence, they are surprisingly stubborn. A team of researchers from Google argue that the current crop of AI agents falls far short of ‘probabilistic reasoning’—the ability to maintain and update a…

Robots are entering their GPT-3 era. For years, researchers have tried to train robots using the same autoregressive (AR) models that power large language models (LLMs). If a model can predict the next word in a sentence, it should be able to predict the next move for a robotic arm….
