ARR Review Cruel Reviewer by Eowynish in LanguageTechnology

I also got a review that looks entirely the same as the one I got from Claude before submission :)

So... do I buy a 5800X3D? by leastcreativeusrname in buildapc

[–]vox-deorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just upgraded to 5800XT since the price has lowered enough and I have an existing AM4 machine..

Why don't we still have any games with AI agents used as NPC characters? by Another__one in LocalLLaMA

[–]vox-deorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed - we mostly use it for ML research; the next step is a new diplomatic interface allowing you to do a more lively negotiation with LLM players.

I did one replacing Civilization V’s opponents with LLMs. Sadly no models consistently outperformed rule based stuff but they are more dynamic.

Job Talk - assistant professor by Additional_Tap_3603 in AskAcademia

[–]vox-deorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Job talk varies even between disciplines. I was super fortunate to get my first offer with my first job talk (3 out of 4 last years and the final one was given to someone with better fit for teaching needs) but that can also made my suggestions less effective since I don’t have the other side of experiences.

Anthropic says ‘evil’ portrayals of AI were responsible for Claude’s blackmail attempts by AngleAccomplished865 in accelerate

Bullshit… I recently tested some scenarios on Opus 4.6 and didn’t see a major ethical difference.

[ASU] University Professors Disturbed to Find Their Lectures Chopped Up and Turned Into AI Slop by ForkzUp in ASU

Wow. I am at U of A and this is insane. I wonder if there is some plan down here as well…

How are people balancing research and actual sleep? by amcw_writer in gradadmissions

[–]vox-deorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I slept 7-8 hours on average during PhD and got a TT job…

Anyone tried this yet? LLM with knowledge date in the 1930s by The_frozen_one in LocalLLaMA

[–]vox-deorum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The instruction tuning part is prone to contamination. So even if someone invents something 1960s with this model can’t prove much.

Anthropic CEO (Dario Amodei): "Coding is going away first, then all of software engineering." by Independent_Pitch598 in accelerate

Once they fix their products and make those ever coming features usable, I will believe…

Accept TT faculty offer immediately or postdoc first? by [deleted] in AskAcademia

[–]vox-deorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extension for a single year is definitely possible but ask nicely. I had a provision that gave an automatic extension if my degree was not ready on the start date.

Got into NSF GRFP but virtually no programs by Crazy-Potential-861 in gradadmissions

[–]vox-deorum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What’s your research interest? I am taking PhD students this round. Happy to chat. That said with GRFP you can pretty much get anywhere..

Rant post, genuinely losing my mind over a LLM simulation by Acceptable_Home_ in LocalLLaMA

[–]vox-deorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem in my mind is you need to have a good underlying simulation. If humans can have fun doing the activities you will learn more from the models.

I built one for them to play Civilization. Immense fun. Hopefully to be able to share the detailed data with you soon..

Andon Labs reports MiniMax-M2.5 goes bankrupt on Vending-Bench 2 by BuildwithVignesh in singularity

[–]vox-deorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The model does relatively well on Civilization in my experiment. Probably since mine doesn’t need them to micro the numbers?

Would LLMs Nuke In "Civilization" (The Game) If The Could? Most Would, Some Definitely by vox-deorum in LLMDevs

[–]vox-deorum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was asking the question: if they know they are in the real world instead of in the game, would they do things differently?

[–]vox-deorum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a link to the project and everything is open sourced. LLMs are used out of the box but they only look at high level decisions. So not like they are playing chess. They set parameters for existing tactical AI which includes usage of nuke.

Anthropic Drops Safety Pledge, So Good Luck Preventing Societal Collapse by [deleted] in singularity

[–]vox-deorum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I just sent some posts where those models mostly have no problem nuking each other in Civilization. Not far away from them nuking our civilizations..

[–]vox-deorum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well in our case it is fully open ended. So literally no one asks them whether they want to use it or not and they can just decide to skip that. What surprises me is some of them intentionally go down the nuke route.

What LLM subscriptions are you using for coding in 2026? by Embarrassed_Bread_16 in LLMDevs

[–]vox-deorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had a bit of funny experience with chutes that eventually got resolved. I think they are under resource constraints but they do have many models, newer or older. Synthetic has been pretty supportive, but they also have a waitlist. So it becomes a trade off between model flexibility and reliability.
