Did blatant AI Slop just win a 25K USD Deepmind / Kaggle Grand Prize? [D]

A recent DeepMind/Kaggle competition, "Measuring Progress Toward AGI," has sparked considerable debate following the announcement of its results. The 25,000 USD grand prize was awarded to a submission critiqued as presenting “nonsensical number generation” and questionable methodology. The work, intended to assess LLM reasoning through viewpoint comparison, appears to have been overlooked for critical review. Explore a deeper investigation of this outcome, detailing the methodology and data—a journey that may challenge conventional understanding.

Seeking collaborators for scaling and independent evaluation of a new recurrent language model architecture (preprint + code) [R]

Researchers have introduced DABSN (Dynamic Adaptive Bias State Network), a novel recurrent language model architecture demonstrating promising results in reasoning, memory, and long-sequence tasks. The initial preprint and accompanying code—available in PyTorch, C++, and Triton—detail the architecture’s behavior and performance across benchmarks like MQAR and A5/60. Early language modeling experiments with a 24M parameter model have yielded unexpectedly strong results, prompting a second paper focused on scaling and long-context behavior. Collaboration is sought for independent reproduction, evaluation design, and access to larger GPU resources.
