THE INTERNET IS THINKING
Earlier sources: Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence covers systems that learn from data, generate content, perceive their surroundings, or act toward a goal. Follow model research, agent tooling, evaluation, and the infrastructure used to build and run these systems.
SYMTRI organizes observations from public sources into a living map. Connections reflect shared subject matter; they do not establish causation or endorse a source.
Open in the map ↗5500 classified signals in the fourteen-day window. Recent momentum: steady. These counts include signals awaiting readable evidence.
Earlier sources
Up to ten sources with readable evidence, ordered by their feed timestamp. These archive sources can be older than the live fourteen-day window. This list is a sample, not a measure of total activity. Dates distinguish paper publication, repository creation, model/dataset activity, Hacker News posts, and KEV catalog additions. “First archived” records when SYMTRI first stored the signal.

Inference-Time Steering Across Scaffolds and Epitopes for Sample-Efficient De Novo Nanobody Design ↗
Generative molecular design typically relies on over-generation and post-hoc filtering. Inference-time steering methods like Feynman-Kac (FK) steering improve efficiency by biasing trajectories toward high-reward candidates, yet they optimize within a single fixed configuration. In de novo nanobody design, upfront commitment to conditioning choices like scaffold identity or target epitope creates a bottleneck. Since yield varies across these conditions, steering unpromising setups wastes compute. We recast generative condition selection as an inference-time resource-allocation problem. We prop…

Returning to Development States: When Full Sandbox Snapshots Help Coding Agents ↗
Coding agents often make useful progress before they fail, but retry-from-scratch discards the machine state created along the way. This makes failure recovery an interesting search problem: if intermediate environment states preserve meaningful progress, restoring and branching from them could outperform repeatedly restarting from the initial state. We implement Go-Explore-style search over full Daytona snapshots and find that higher and more efficient solve rates depend mainly on progress that sits outside the repository, such as databases, services, and other runtime state. Our results sugg…

Studying Comics at Scale with Artificial Intelligence: The PAGE Framework and Three Studies of American Comics and Japanese Manga ↗
Comics are one of the great visual records of the twentieth century: hundreds of thousands of pages in which a mass readership saw its leaders, its wars and its heroes. Most of this record has never been studied as a whole; comics scholarship proceeds one book at a time. We argue that artificial intelligence, including generative models, can change this to the benefit of the medium itself. We propose PAGE, a framework that makes artificial intelligence an instrument for comics research. It parses every scan into panels, text and a bibliographic record; annotates each page with a vision-languag…

Mapless, Stabilizing, and Anti-Stuck Flipper Control for Articulated Tracked Robots ↗
Nearly every autonomous or semi-autonomous flipper controller assumes access to an elevation map of the terrain under and in front of the robot. The terrain beneath the chassis is occluded in the sensors, so the map is remembered through odometry integration, whose drift corrupts it. We present Stabilizing Anti-Stuck (SAS), a mapless controller that combines a stabilization term for body roll and pitch with an anti-stuck term that frees the robot when it gets stuck. As input, SAS uses the IMU, the flipper joint angles, and a motion cue that only tells whether the robot is moving. The cue is co…

Show HN: Higherlevel – Define and review what AI agents build ↗
Hi HN! I'm Ryan, I'm building Higherlevel ( https://higherlevel.to ) so product teams have one place to define and review software changes. Over the last couple of years, I've been increasingly delegating software implementation to AI coding agents. However, because it became easier and faster to ship complexity, I realised that it still takes me quite some time to even understand what the software is doing, why it is doing that, or review the ch…

Specialists Learn Faster: Knowledge Organization in Pre-training Shapes Knowledge Update Efficiency ↗
An ideal (language) model must continually update its knowledge. Existing work largely focuses on making these updates efficient after training. We investigate how the organization of time-varying knowledge during pre-training shapes the efficiency of subsequent updates. Models trained on chronologically ordered knowledge specialize in the most recently encountered knowledge; we call them specialists. In contrast, models trained on the same knowledge in randomly shuffled order perform well across all represented time periods; we call them generalists. Surprisingly, specialists require far fewe…

On the Design Space of Continuous Diffusion Language Models ↗
Continuous diffusion language models (CDLMs) promise to bring the benefits of continuous flow modelling to language, including accelerated sampling and controllable generation. The field has grown rapidly, and the capabilities of CDLMs have begun to rival those of discrete diffusion. Yet, unlike for continuous modalities such as images or videos, our grasp of the levers that matter when training CDLMs remains limited. In this work, we focus on two of these levers, namely self-conditioning and embedding geometry, and shed light on some of the mechanisms behind them, which in turn suggest cheape…

SpatialASM: Internalizing Active Mentalization for Spatial Reasoning ↗
When solving complex spatial reasoning tasks, ordinary humans naturally revisit the scenes from task-relevant viewpoints and mentally reconstruct the spatial layouts from those viewpoints. But can Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) proactively think in the same way? We term this ability Active Spatial Mentalization (ASM), an intrinsic component of visual intelligence that remains substantially underdeveloped in current LVLMs. To bridge this gap, we introduce SpatialASM, a scalable framework to internalize ASM into LVLMs through training-time spatial simulation. SpatialASM employs an allocent…

How to assess evidence about Artificial Intelligence
Check each original source for its methods, release status, limitations, and supporting data. A repository announcement, a preprint, and a published study provide different kinds of evidence. SYMTRI’s subject classification helps discovery; it does not independently validate the source’s claims.
