Really good to be back in SF for GDC (yes, our game is still cooking 👀) If you're around and want to meet up next week, let me know!

Seeing this chart go around a bunch, I think the main point is being missed - “LLMs can’t solve large grids because of perception” This is a deficiency in the model, there are alternative ways to “perceive” the grid. Doing it in 1-shot is not required. As a human, do you hold…

I recommend reading @mikb0b 's article on o3's performance on the ARC challenge. He proves that LLMs' struggle with ARC depend on their inability to easily process large 2d grids.

more evidence (including experiments varying sizes of problems) that grid size alone plays a significant role in arc. this is obviously far from ideal for a reasoning benchmark and can hopefully get addressed in arc-agi-2

I've recently been playing with @fchollet's Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus, a really interesting benchmark for building systems that can reason. As part of that, I've just released a small 🐍 library for easily interacting with and visualising ARC: github.com/mxbi/arckit

Really proud to be published in a Nature Portfolio journal for the first time! We set a new SOTA for single-cell protein localisation on the @ProteinAtlas, building on our work in the 2nd HPA Kaggle comp. nature.com/articles/s4200… @ForecomAI @cvssp_research @d_minskiy
