Retr0id: I've been thinking about something along these lines, but coupled with deterministic inference. At each "macro" invocation you'd also include hash-of-model, and hash-of-generated-text. (Note, determinism doesn't require temperature 0, so long as you can control the rng seed. But there are a lot of other things that make determinism hard)You could take it a step further and have a deterministic agent inside a deterministic VM, and you can share a whole project as {model hash, vm image hash, prompt, source tree hash} and have someone else deterministically reproduce it.Is this useful? Not sure. One use case I had in mind as a mechanism for distributing "forbidden software". You can't distribute software that violates DMCA, for example, but can you distribute a prompt?
bdcravens: I've found that writing pseudocode in a markdown file with little to no definitions (I may put a few non-obvious notes in the CLAUDE/AGENTS files) and telling the agent what language to turn it into generally works.
mpalmer: Deterministic inference is mechanically indistinguishable from decompression or decryption, so if there's a way to one-weird-trick DMCA, it's probably not this.
Chance-Device: But… why not just write pseudo code, or any language you actually know, and just ask the AI to port it to the language you want? That’s a serious question by the way, is there some use case here I’m not seeing where learning this new syntax and running this actually helps instead of being extra steps nobody needs?
kgeist: Glupe means "stupid" in Slavic languages, was it on purpose?
whoamii: Why didn’t you implement this in… Glupe?
