the best agent framework in my opinion is Pi. Pi avoids MCP thats a good thing. why assume that the planet will migrate from HTTP to MCP? no, instead lets assume we have client code we can call. we already have a rich ecosystem of HTTP services and packages. and if we assume a rewrite for agents we probably wouldn't come up with MCP but something more powerful.

DNS is much more foundational and overlooked here. how does the world agree that "x.com" resolves the way it does?

interesting, seems more of an enterprise offering. its OpenAI only for and you plan to expand to other vendors? anything opensource?

yes, you can think of Lisp almost as an intermediate language. Lisp probably lends itself well to machine code generation but I haven't done enough assembly to really know that. its not designed for that, its just a side effect of the language primitives being very very short. you can write a basic Lisp interpreter in a few hours yourself https://norvig.com/lispy.html. Creating a decent compiled language takes a lot longer than that. Lisp only requires 5 or so primitives and it doesn't have a grammar.

it is a bit ackward for humans but machines can process it better because it has less structure. for example what I thought is that Lisp could potentially be a great choice to interop with Large Language Models with, because its potentially shorter code. Good clojure code can be 5-10x shorter than python code. With LLMs size of code matters a lot.

for coding tasks see

https://aider.chat/docs/leaderboards/

the question is how would you define "improve" and "solve". RLHF in a way delegates this to humans.

what does divided together mean? maybe your question doesn't have a good answer, because the question is not formulated well enough.

seriously?

"The National Security Agency (NSA) has recommended only using 'memory safe' languages, like C#, Go, Java, Ruby, Rust, and Swift, in order to avoid exploitable memory-based vulnerabilities."

thanks for this, is there a way to get a good overview over more exotic languages?

thats mostly copy & paste. what if OpenAI chat would be more like google docs from the start?

cool, have you looked at AutoGPT in detail with its memory system?
