For code reviews I believe yea luna is mostly good but for finding security issues something more well versed with it might be more helpful like astra. This also depends on the scale and the impact of the application or the code where it will be used too, I guess
Re:Recreating Minecraft Is Not a Benchmark on Monday September 07, 2026 @08:10AM (#49597388)
I have become increasingly doubtful when it comes to using existing applications as a measure for coding agents. If the task in question is difficult enough that it cannot be completed in just one try, then the result's quality largely depends on the model's supporting framework, i.e. how the problem is divided in the prompt, how many iterations are made, what tools are employed, and how many instructions it gets from a human operator. I would also propose to take into account the documentation and testing processes while constructing the framework. The action of an agent that preserves its history, records unsuccessful attempts and known pitfalls, and constantly makes and executes tests can differ a lot from the same model in the absence of such history. In a lengthy task the ability to remember what was learned from previous failures can be as significant as producing the next piece of code. Another issue is related to contamination. When it comes to such game as Minecraft, the model is not starting from scratch. Many elements, such as game mechanics, design, tutorials, and many lines of code are available online for a long time and probably formed a basis
Re:I refused to train the AI that could replace me on Monday September 07, 2026 @02:30AM (#49594640)
I believe the people currently at the frontier for ai training as either one of 2 types. First who are genuine freaks of nature and have an obsession to see the epitome of this technology, the other is people who have genuine malicious intent and probably hope that the ai replaces human. The former usually don't mean to do this, but in their obsession it results in the outcome of ai replace skills workers
