Chess banned engines from competition. CTFs can't really do that because you need internet access and tooling to play.

PG is proof that the best things on the internet are still built by people who just care about the mission.
I built ai3 to control my window manager via chat by exposing the i3 IPC protocol as a toolset for LLM agents. It includes a Next Action prediction feature similar to the tab-complete in AI code editors that anticipates your next action based on current activity. You can also trigger AI based layout optimization and control your desktop through chat. This is an experimental research project so please use it for testing only and be mindful of your data privacy.

Big jump from gpt-image, but I would love to see the same kind of step change we have seen in recent language model releases.
Re:Embracing the parallel coding agent lifestyle on Thursday October 09, 2025 @04:06PM (#45532418)
Async agents are great. They let you trigger work with almost no effort, and if the results miss the mark you can just discard them. They also run in the background, making it feel like delegating tasks across teammates who quietly get things done in parallel.
Love the idea!
