The first real evidence that the days of LLM Scaling laws are over. Introducing SCOPE: the world's most efficient Neural Planner. 🔍📊 We tested SCOPE vs Frontier LLMs for planning tasks on TextCraft (text version of Minecraft) and here are the results: ⤵️ - SCOPE Runs 55x faster than GPT 3.5 (3 seconds vs 164 seconds) - SCOPE is 160,000 smaller than GPT 4o (11M parameters vs 1.8T parameters) - SCOPE is more accurate on Planning tasks (56%) than frontier LLM models The age of efficient AI models starts now. 🔗📌 Read the full write up here: skyfall.ai/blog/scope-hierar…

Witnessed the most amazing thing on the train to Edinburgh yesterday. A guy boarded in Wigan & sat opposite me. He went to sleep for an hour. When he woke up he bought a sandwich, ate it & went back to sleep. (This isn’t a maths test, you don’t need to know the distance/speed).

One of my most controversial software opinions is that your sleep quality and stress level matter far, far more than the languages you use or the practices you follow. Nothing else comes close: not type systems, not TDD, not formal methods, not ANYTHING. Allow me to explain why.

A nice fact I like: Every matrix corresponds to a graph, and so familiar things (e.g. matrix multiplication) have nice pictures! Another nice fact: joint probability distributions *also* correspond to graphs. They have telling pictures, too. New blog post! math3ma.com/blog/matrices-pr…
