I built a system that lets LLMs automatically learn and improve problem-solving strategies over time, inspired by Andrej Karpathy's idea of a "third paradigm" for LLM learning. The basic idea: instead of using static system prompts, the LLM builds up a database of strategies that actually work for different problem types. When you give it a new problem, it selects the most relevant strategies, applies them, then evaluates how well they worked and refines them. For example, after seeing enough

This book is designed to help C++ programmers learn Rust. It provides translations of common C++ patterns into idiomatic Rust. Each pattern is described through concrete code examples along with high-level discussion of engineering trade-offs. The book can be read front-to-back, but it is designed to be used random-access. When you are writing Rust code and think, "I know how to do this in C++ but not Rust," then look for the corresponding chapter in this book. This book was hand-written by ex

How to fully automate software engineering Ege Erdil, Matthew Barnett, Tamay Besiroglu May 30, 2025 With every passing month, AI models get better at most tasks that a software engineer does in their job. Yet for all these gains, today’s models only assist human engineers, falling far short of automating their job completely. What will it take to build AIs that can fully replace software engineers, and why aren’t we there yet? Current AIs present something of a paradox. Their performance on

A human reading dest-igmat-ize would have trouble understanding it until they recognized that the st belongs in the next group. Indeed, hyphenation dictionaries for e-readers disallow hyphens that break syllables for exactly this reason. Byte pair encoding (BPE) The tokenizer used by GPT-2 (and most variants of Bert) is built using byte pair encoding (BPE). Bert itself uses some proprietary heuristics to learn its vocabulary but uses the same greedy algorithm as BPE to tokenize. BPE comes from

There’s an old joke about a drunk man looking for his keys under a lamppost. Someone stops and offers to help. He asks, “So, did you lose your keys here?” The drunk replies “No, I lost them over there, but here’s where the light is.” I routinely talk to people who have strong technical skills and who want to go into consulting. They usually think that the main thing they need to do next is improve their technical skills. Maybe they know five programming languages but believe learning a sixth on
