Agents can retrieve documents and query databases, but retrieval reliability limits the utility of agentic analytic abilities: a revenue metric answered faster is worth nothing if the number is wrong.
Just adding a few words takes it so far...

Yes, but last time I asked copilot to provide an alt text for an image depicting a experimental procedure using rodents, it suggested "A rat being attacked by another group of rats".

I could imagine that you could loop over and over, but direct the outputs of each layer to two destinations: a) to continue through the layers, looping, and b) a separate CoT text output layer to make those CoT concrete. In fact, the model itself would not need to be aware or have access to those CoT traces at all. I am not an AI guy, so I don't know for sure, but that seems reasonably possible.

You might be right, but it isn't clear to me that that means the near-shoring hypothesis is wrong. Wresting control from the Cartel in the south can be a goal of its own right, but would also seem to support a goal of establishing more influence in the region for nearshoring our supply lines, as well as establishing another source of oil to counteract anticipated disruptions in the Iranian conflict.

Isn't the strategy to nearshore production, and recent moves in South America were potentially done to reduce Chinese/Iranian/Russian influence in those regions?

Isn't this what openai is doing, at least in spirit, by running multiple passes through the network before exhibiting thinking tokens? Isn't the same issue one of safety and control, because being able to interpret thinking tokens helps u control / monitor unwanted behaviors, and multiple passes before writing out the thinking tokens increases their capacity for deception?

I've only played a handful of these games .. but do they work together as a theme or story progression or are they, as I suspect, pretty much independent rehashes with no real relationship other than making money and appeasing fans?

Well, it's not about capitalism anymore because the West will be damned if they'd let a Chinese AI destroy the world first, and so too would the Chinese be damned if they'd let the West's AI have that sole honor. ...and so everyone must stay in the race. Solving that geopolitical conundrum is not optional.

Conscripts didn't typically come from the lands around Moscow, but from the poor peoples who are very far away from wealth and power. For most there, it was only Ukraine's drone attacks that made them feel at war

Agreed. While Ukraine targets energy and technological/manufacturing enablers of war, Russia continues to indiscriminately bomb Ukrainian cities, apartment buildings being their favorite. Fck Russian Imperial asperations and their murderous invasion of Ukraine.

So you restricted it to implementing the same function (same inputs,outputs, dependencies as original?) and prevented the agents from making design decisions by keeping it's scope restricted?

With the Target thing though, opponents were just a bit hypocritical. Davis residents were already going to a Target: they were driving to Woodland or Vacaville for their serious shopping.
