D-Squared Musings – Week 43
Tech

🤖 Evolutionary prompts – No need for prompt engineering
- Google’s Deepmind recently published a new paper highlighting their approach to removing the need for prompts and replacing them with tasks. This evolutionary approach is interesting, but way too costly for scale. More innovative magic will be needed.
Education

Miscellaneous
- This looks pretty funny. Possibly a Pixar competitor.
- This second trailer gives me a little hope for this Wonka film.
