The state of coding agents in late 2025 simonwillison.net/2025/Dec/15/...

I have received a message from a colleague with several typos and my first idea was - cool, she wrote it herself, no chatgpt. In a few years from now, will we make mistakes on purpose to prove we are humans? (Then teach AI to imitate it)

Final meeting before thesis defense (with my student): - When I asked you to add an example of some bacteria genome, which one did you pick? = Myxococcus llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogochensis - 🙈

Netuším, jestli někdo přijde, ale pozvánka na poslední Prague R Meetup rozeslána @josefslerka.bsky.social www.meetup.com/prague-r-mee...

One day!

NeurIPS workshop paper accepted. San Diego, here I come! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIWF...

Jestli mne nikdo nezastaví, převezmu po víkendu skupinu a poslední Prague R Meetup bude ve středu 22.10.

Sometimes you rock. Sometimes you roll. Sometimes you take a nap and start over.

Nevystavuj mé trollící já pokušení, @josefslerka.bsky.social, já prožil s R spoustu krásných let! Nebo kliknu na na "Yes" a... Může mít počítačový jazyk pohřeb? S Always Look on the Bright Side of Life? Že bychom pozvali Rkaře na #pycamp a #pyvo?

Czech contribution to AI discussion

Was excited about OpenAI's new open-source models until I hit "trained on a mostly English, text-only dataset" For Czech gpt-oss-20b is genuinely bad, gpt-oss-120b is passable but far from impressive. Running formal benchmarks, but casual testing already tells the story 🇨🇿 openai.com/index/introd...

This is actually pretty good illustration of AI-assisted coding success / failure (ignore the term "vibe coding" and be honest - we have all been on the 4th line) Source: www.reddit.com/r/vibecoding...

Ok, this is crazy. Geoguessing photos with AI: * Gemini 2.5 Pro seems to be the best (crazy how fast it is!) * OpenAI o4-mini-high (on a screenshot) - not bad! * OpenAI o3 - very slow * Grok - is guessing Lisbon, Portugal (=wrong)

I believe if anyone showed us GPT4.5 10 years ago, we would call it AGI. (Standa Fort is killing it at #MLPrague2025)

I had no idea that one of LLM innovations was invented for write better erotic stories. (arxiv.org/abs/2306.15595, enabling LLMs to work with longer texts) What you learn at #mlprague2025!

From questions to Jon McLoone's talk at ML Prague "Lies, Damn Lies and Gen AI" Sunken WWII shipwrecks are valuable because they are source of low-background steel (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-bac...). Maybe similarly, one day we will be seeking for pre-AI texts. #MLPrague2025

New models in MiniCzechBenchmark 🇨🇿 Gemini 2.5 Pro 🥇 (as expected), Gemma 12B a very pleasant surprise 🫢 (you can run it in ollama on your 💻), only marginal improvements for new DeepSeek V3, Mistral Small, openai gpt-4o github.com/simecek/Mini...

Despite popular belief it is not true that current LLMs can solve math. olympiad problems. (I have a set of Czech middle school problems Klokánek, most LLMs are slightly above random chance, best thinking at ~90%) arxiv.org/abs/2503.219...

Draw me a little map of XYZ for my future visit. Not real map, just illustration. Include top places I should visit. Please, omit typical turist traps and concentrate on cheap free hipster punk things #gpt4o

LLM image editing solved by Google (model: Gemini Flash 2.0 Image Generation Experimental). Feels like magic - it understands the image on pixel level. Try it: huggingface.co/spaces/phils... Or just use Google AI studio with this model aistudio.google.com

MiniCzechBenchmark 🇨🇿 Update including QwQ-32B, Claude 3.7, Gemini 2.0, and DeepSeek-R1! * Gemini 2.0 Flash is cost effective, fast and great * 🇨🇳 open models to pay attention: V3, QwQ-32B, R1 * Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501 = open alternative to haiku / gpt-4o-mini github.com/simecek/Mini...

Test LLM šolynou. Hlubší než si myslíte. Většina thinking modelů to dá (ale ne DeepSeek-R1, ani QWEN)

ChatGPT4.5 is here www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfRY... I love that they let the model to be introduced by engineers (with all the imperfections of normal people in front of the camera)

Let us make BlueSky nicer that X has ever been. It is OK to ask questions (even hard ones) but I will block accounts shaming people / opinions (even bad ones). Not because tough discussions are not needed but because social networks (like X/BlueSky/Mastodon...) are bad medium for them.
