A critical skill for using agents effectively is the ability think in terms of root cause problem solving. Instead of telling an agent to "Stop doing <bad thing>" you tell it to, e.g., "Develop a system to detect and correct when <bad thing> happens". Of course, there are even better variants of this. But the point is that people who think in terms of problem solving and countermeasures will get much more out of agents.

I expect some new optimal configurations to come from this.

The ideal outcome for science isn't a couple of labs using proprietary models and millions of dollars to crack trophy problems, it's to have millions of AI-aided human scientists who follow their curiosity and become way more ambitious

Huge congratulations to Francis Halzen on the Nobel Prize, a landmark moment in astrophysics! 🏆 It was an honor for our Kaggle community to collaborate with the IceCube Neutrino Observatory in 2023, building open-source ML models to help predict the direction of neutrinos.
BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2026 #NobelPrize in Physics to Francis Halzen “for decisive contributions to the IceCube Neutrino Observatory and the discovery of high-energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin.”

My new ring tone.
This is so sad I can’t believe he said this :(
