Our team’s opinion after the recent AI discourse is pretty simple: frontier AI is moving fast, but no one should use a scaling curve to dictate the research pace for everyone else.
Given the state of machine learning as a whole, no one has a license to act like the core problems

- It’s hard to disagree with the direction of this. But it’s worth being honest that the neuro-symbolic lineage lost to scale for most of the last decade. At the surface, everything collapses into prose. Fluent text is a poor record of what produced it. Two systems doingThree Predictions: 1. Some form of AI, probably neurosymbolic in nature, will come that is far more economical and data- and energy-efficient than LLMs, and it will make an absolute fortune. 2. LLMs, on the other hand, will never be all that profitable (aside from the chip
- Replying to @rei_labsThis isn't arguing for narrow over broad. Transfer and lateral moves matter but domain expertise has been underweighted as a design input. The goal isn't isolation. A system built deep in one field can reach into a related one or even two without losing what the depth bought.
- As part of security measures, Code Sandbox will be replaced by our API endpoints until further notice. Code Sandbox was shipped in closed beta as an experimental product, a first proof of work validating that reasoning and learning can persist independently of the model used for
- Rei repostedQuick context on why GAs will become more relevant in ML as time goes. Gradient descent takes a fixed structure and tunes the values inside it. the architecture is set at design time and never moves, training gives you better numbers inside the same reasoner you started with.
- Replying to @rei_labsDiversity here is the spread across the current population's parameter values. Once that spread crosses the threshold, the next population spawns from the survivors. Top performers carry forward as the seed, then crossover and mutation fill out the new generation.
