Isn't that just RL with extra power-intensive steps? (An entire model chugging away in the goal function)

That's correct, but if successful you'd essentially have updated the LLM's knowledge and capabilities "on the fly".

This was a great article. The section “Training for the next state prediction” explains a solution using subagents. If I’m understanding it correctly, we could test if that solution is directionally correct today, right? I ask a LLM a question. It comes up with a few potential responses but sends those first to other agents in a prompt with the minimum required context. Those subagents can even do this recursively a few times. Eventually the original agent collects and analyzes subagents responses and responds to me.

Any attempt at world modeling using today's LLMs needs to have a goal function for the LLM to optimize. The LLM needs to build, evaluate and update it's model of the world. Personally, the main obstacle I found is in updating the model: Data can be large and I think that LLMs aren't good at finding correlations.

Hi tim.

From talking to the hiring bot (cool tool!), It seems there's a list of countries that Posthog can't hire from for different reasons. If it's ok with you, I'd like to know if this list is up to date.

And for me specifically, I live in Argentina and some weeks ago I sent an application but I think that the resume might have been a bit hard to follow (I now updated it). Is it OK to re-send the application or are decisions for the same role final?

Thank you. Have a great day.
