Wrote a little shell script, as a treat. Did I save time by not creating many files by hand? Probably. Was it more fun than creating many files by hand? Definitely.

Competitor enters a major AI competition (RNA folding)
GPU poor so can't train an AI
Builds a "classic" eng pipeline instead. (90s tech)
Wins and beat everyone using DL 💀
Their winning "hybrid" model had an AI in it. Their original one did not and had a higher score
So they won despite the AI 😂

While many teams relied on deep learning, the winning team (jaejohn) surprised everyone with a highly optimized pipeline that revived classic template-based modeling. 👇

La fonction publique meurt du fait de la perte de sens des métiers, d'une bureaucratisation excessive et d'un niveau de rémunérations inférieur à celui du marché.
Pendant ce temps, le débat se focalise à gauche et à droite sur la fiscalité et les allègements d'impôts.

Ironic: as LLMs make writing much easier, I am finding not more, but less interesting and novel things to read online.
And so I keep paying more attention to the fewer people who still write their original thoughts (without LLMs - you can tell how repetitive it gets with them)

Really mixed messages there: Using LLMs to generate a review is forbidden, but should our reviewers do it, you shouldn't try to take advantage of it using prompt injection.
This is a gray area of ethics with a dilemna similar to "Is it ethical to steal from a thief ?"

This blog is SO good at pointing out what should have been obvious about AI for coding (Copilot and others)
These tools are good for re-creating whatever they’ve been trained on.
They are not what will create the next, better generation of frameworks, libraries, technologies.
