We already knew about context engineering.
But “motivation engineering” might matter just as much.
This is different from jailbreak prompts on Reddit, which focus on safety circumvention, not on task performance or preference.

In the same vein, this paper also finds that reinforcement learning primarily improves sampling efficiency rather than inducing fundamentally new reasoning behaviors.

RL is no longer needed?
"Neural Thickets: Diverse Task Experts Are Dense Around Pretrained Weights"
This paper argues that large pretrained models don’t sit at a single optimal set of weights but inside a dense “thicket” of nearby task-specific experts.
So once pretraining is strong enough, randomly sampling small weight perturbations often yields specialists that outperform the base model on different tasks, and simply selecting and ensembling these guesses (RandOpt) can rival standard post-training methods.
This suggests that much of what post-training does is just selecting useful behaviors already latent around the pretrained weights rather than learning entirely new ones.

@hamza_q_ @zeddotdev I'm suspecting it's a Zed problem since it spawned 100's of these codex-acp processes that all share the same memory ..

@Holychicken99 @zeddotdev lmao
weird, never had any mem problems with Codex CLI

@hamza_q_ Turns out most TUI libraries aren't a good fit to display candlestick data because it updates rapidly.
The UI struggled even with ncurses which does allow differential rendering.

Been building a financial market sim in Elixir for the past few months.
Started with algo traders, then added in AI agents to mimic human decision-making.
Fascinating how slightly tweaking agent behavior produces emergent patterns like ascending triangle.
A lot went into making it work. Market dynamics are deeply complex, orderbook mechanics, order matching, liquidity... the rabbit hole goes deep.
Writing it all up soon 👀
