The primary development is that the LLMs have been trained, using a variety of techniques, to reliably output strings of text that can be interpreted by the code managing the LLM as a signal to run a command or function. There's no magic here.
Given the marketing around "AI agents", there is some confusion about what this new offering actually represents. These are not AI models that suddenly have agency. They are not autonomous and are not approaching autonomy. The "agency" is old-fashioned software interpreting LLM outputs ...
Forgot @themountaingoats.bsky.social was on this comp!!
It's interesting, if not surprising given the training data, that image generation models struggle to produce images that aren't representational in some way. There is a strong bias toward 3d space, material texture (e.g., paint, fabric, concrete), landscape, etc.

It seems obvious that Trump is the Baudrillardian President. No less obvious is the fact that there is a real geopolitical agenda at work in the effort to decapitate Iran. That geopolitics may be that of Netanyahu, but it is nonetheless real. At least as far as the Middle East is concerned, there is an inveterate revisionist strain in US policy which became apparent with Biden. But what I am not sure of, is whether the broader framing of Baudrillard's analyss is any longer relevant. This may be unfair, Baudrillard specialists feel free to weigh in, but his framing seems basically functional. He was explaining how a system cohered. In 2026 does that presume too much? Do we live in a world in which the question of popular legitimation for war, or the legality of Trump's actions - the classic questions still posed by war-making in the period between Vietnam and Iraq and implicitly answered by Baudrillard - still matter very much any more?
Great question posed by @adamtooze.bsky.social in his chartbook this morning.
How do I still have this?

Somehow managed to post this twice and then delete the post it was a reply to instead of the duplicate. Maybe the murderous robots have a point.
Might be time to reboot my singularity course. But can I stomach the readings?
