Learning from Human Behavior: Amplitude’s Feedback Loop for AI Products

…and failures to recall information still inside the context window. The team split generation into seven narrower questions, including which events to use, how to display the result, and what to name it. That decomposition created a…

Lila’s Lab as a Learning System — Part 1 of 3

…shift still requires verification: exposing more experimental context lets the team investigate whether, for example, unusual humidity explains an outcome, then dispatch a rerun to test the explanation. An output measurement needs enough…

Lindy at Work: Putting Agents on Rails

…team identifies integrations, core capabilities, and product engineering as its main bottlenecks. It began with context windows—the input available to a model—of roughly 4,000 tokens; its system prompt alone had since exceeded that size.…

Moving the AI Frontier: Distillation, Data Movement, and Better Specifications

…data from architectural or other model improvements. Long context—the material available to a model while answering—makes this distinction tangible. Finding one isolated fact in a large input, the single-needle-in-a-haystack task, is…

NeurIPS 2023 Recap, Part 3 of 4: Search, Tools, Agent Memory, and Attention Alternatives

…followed by the output. The returned information then becomes context for subsequent text. Training-data generation follows three stages: 1. Propose calls. Instructions and examples prompt the model to insert calls that could help complete …

Noetik’s bet: learn which patients a cancer drug can help

…that place tumor cells outside their original tissue context. His concern is that these experimental systems can leave clinical teams without a reliable map to human responders. Consider Alfa’s hypothetical early-phase trial of fifty…

One Year of MCP: From Local Tools to Asynchronous Agents

…server needed to accept tokens issued elsewhere. Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard connecting AI applications to data and tools. Its first year moved from essentially local-only servers to remote connections in March 2025,…

Open AI Needs More Than Open Models

…to contribute engineers and devoted substantial Meta-funded engineering time to the work. Software dependencies face a similar test: ease of installation, smooth integration and enough user benefit to justify adoption. PyTorch’s dependency …

OpenAI Functions: From Prompted JSON to Tool-Using Software

One developer’s copilot prompts consumed most of GPT-3.5’s 4K context window before the model could answer. The team used GPT-4 sparingly in production because of cost. GPT-3.5 16K addressed a concrete constraint: accommodating substantial …
