Prompting LLMs is not engineering

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-08 20:38:04

Prompting LLMs is not engineering published in: With the proliferation of AI models and tools, there's a new industry-wide fascination with snake oil remedies called "prompt engineering". As of July 2025 the term is now "context engineering" or "context prompting" or "context manipulation". To put it succinctly, prompt engineering is nothing but an attempt to reverse-engineer a non-deterministic black box for which any of the parameters below are unknown: training set weights constraints o

Apple just released a weirdly interesting coding language model

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-02-10 00:53:04

Apple quietly dropped a new AI model on Hugging Face with an interesting twist. Instead of writing code like traditional LLMs generate text (left to right, top to bottom), it can also write out of order, and improve multiple chunks at once. The result is faster code generation, at a performance that rivals top open-source coding models. Here’s how it works. The nerdy bits Here are some (overly simplified, in the name of efficiency) concepts that are important to understand before we can move

Inside India’s scramble for AI independence

technologyreview.com Shadma Shaikh 2026-02-10 22:15:07

Nonetheless, a small but determined group of Indian builders is starting to shape the country’s AI future. For example, Sarvam AI has created OpenHathi-Hi-v0.1, an open-source Hindi language model that shows the Indian AI field’s growing ability to address the country’s vast linguistic diversity. The model, built on Meta’s Llama 2 architecture, was trained on 40 billion tokens of Hindi and related Indian-language content, making it one of the largest open-source Hindi models available to date.

xAI prepares Grok 4 Code as it plans to take on Claude and Gemini

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-02-11 06:00:18

xAI is preparing the rollout of Grok 4, which replaces Grok 3 as the new state-of-the-art model. Ahead of the rollout, testers on X have again spotted references to a few new Grok 4 models. One of the models is called "grok-4-prod-mimic," which reportedly excels at enterprise use cases like data extraction, coding, and text summarisation. It also possesses deep domain knowledge in finance, healthcare, law, and science. But "grok-4-prod-mimic" isn't the only new model coming to Grok. Another

The End of Moore's Law for AI? Gemini Flash Offers a Warning

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-12 04:34:05

For the past few years, the AI industry has operated under its own version of Moore's Law: an unwavering belief that the cost of intelligence would perpetually decrease by orders of magnitude each year. Like clockwork, each new model generation promised to be not only more capable but also cheaper to run. Last week, Google quietly broke that trend. In a move that at first went unnoticed, Google significantly increased the price of its popular Gemini 2.5 Flash model. The input token price double
