Claude Code is truly amazing. I just single shotted a linux app for my ancient outdoor camera system. Now I can make some more enhancements and have a functioning app I want. Will it make me a lot of money maybe not but with AI coding tools I can scratch itches I have had. https://t.co/1fd2r6GlBH

One of the underrated papers this year: "Small Batch Size Training for Language Models: When Vanilla SGD Works, and Why Gradient Accumulation Is Wasteful" (https://t.co/0O4XjGDLIP) (I can confirm this holds for RLVR, too! I have some experiments to share soon.) https://t.co/Vy6yVeGqiK

RoPE is fundamentally flawed. This paper shows that RoPE mixes up “what” a token is with “where” it is, so the model can’t reliably reason about relative positions independently of token identity. Eg. the effective notion of “3 tokens to the left” subtly depends on which letters are involved, so asking “what letter is 3 to the left of Z in a sequence 'ABSCOPZG' ” becomes harder than it should be because the positional ruler itself shifts with content. So this paper proposes PoPE, which gives the model a fixed positional ruler by encoding where tokens are independently of what they are, letting "content" only control match strength while "position" alone controls distance. With PoPE achieving 95% accuracy while RoPE would be stuck at 11% on Indirect Indexing task

This might be my favorite paper of the year🤯 Rich Sutton claims that current RL methods won't get us to continual learning because they don't compound upon previous knowledge, every rollout starts from scratch. Researchers in Switzerland introduce Meta-RL which might crack that code. Optimize across episodes with a meta-learning objective, which then incentivizes agents to explore first and then exploit. And then reflect upon previous failures for future agent runs. Incredible results and incredible read of a paper overall. Authors: @YulunJiang @LiangzeJ @DamienTeney @Michael_D_Moor @mariabrbic
