Python implementation of Recursive Language Models for processing unbounded context lengths. Process 100k+ tokens with any LLM by storing context as variables instead of prompts.
Researchers at MIT’s CSAIL are charting a more "modular" path ahead for software development, breaking systems into "concepts" and "synchronizations" to make code clearer, safer, and easier for LLMs to generate.
MIT researchers are proposing a new software development approach centered around "concepts" and "synchronizations" to address issues of complexity, safety, and LLM compatibility in modern software.
Concepts are self-contained units of functionality (like "sharing" or "liking") with their own state and actions, whereas synchronizations are explicit rules defining how these concepts interact, expressed in a simple, LLM-friendly language.
The benefits include ncreased modularity, transparency, easier understanding for both humans and AI, improved safety, and potential for automated software development. Real-world application: has been demonstrated by successfully restructuring features (liking, commenting, sharing) to be more modular and legible.
Future includes concept catalogs, a shift in software architecture, and improved collaboration through shared, well-tested concepts.

An article detailing the history of LISP machines and the SCHEME-78 microprocessor, designed to closely match the LISP language, developed by Guy L. Steele and Gerald Jay Sussman. It discusses the motivations behind creating dedicated LISP hardware, its eventual decline, and its relevance to modern AI hardware.
Niklas Roy has created a modern-day take on the two-wheeled robots used in schools in the 1980s with Logo programming. His robots are vector plotters that create artwork and can be built with an Arduino Nano.
Fernando J. Corbató was a Professor Emeritus at MIT, renowned for his pioneering work in the development of time-sharing and resource-sharing computer systems. He was instrumental in creating the Compatible Time-Sharing System (CTSS) and Multics, both influential systems that laid the groundwork for modern operating systems. Corbató's contributions have been widely recognized through numerous awards and fellowships, including the Turing Award (1990) and the Computer Pioneer Award (1982). He was a long-time member of the MIT Computation Center and the Laboratory for Computer Science, and held leadership positions within the department. His work significantly impacted the field of computer science and the evolution of computing technology.
A forum dedicated to bug-lispm, a project related to the Lisp Machine. The page lists recent threads with their creation dates, titles, and number of posts/days spanned.
A new study by MIT CSAIL researchers maps the challenges of AI in software development, identifying bottlenecks and highlighting research directions to move the field forward, aiming to allow humans to focus on high-level design while automating routine tasks.
