John Carmack's #PaperADay series reviewing 'LOCAL FEATURE SWAPPING FOR GENERALIZATION IN REINFORCEMENT LEARNING'. Discusses CLOP (Channel-consistent local permutations) technique for reducing overfitting in RL by swapping neighboring positions in tensors while maintaining channel consistency. Notes data augmentation in latent space is more efficient than input space.

#PaperADay 6 LOCAL FEATURE SWAPPING FOR GENERALIZATION IN REINFORCEMENT LEARNING t.co/n1xj5BRqNX There is a good discussion of generalization, both in general (ha) and more specifically in RL, but the idea presented is very simple, and I’m going to give it a try: CLOP: Channel-consistent local permutations Given a 3D tensor (4D with batch), with some probability at each location, randomly swap position with a neighbor, swapping all channels as a unit. Like dropout, this reduces overfit

Emollick observes that Anthropic keeps inventing agent paradigms (MCPs, Skills) that get universally adopted, praising fast adoption of good standards.

Source details
Anthropic keeps inventing new approaches to how agents work that then get adopted universally. First MCPs now Skills (which are an excellent tool). Also good to see fast adoption of good standards.

Blog post: 'Files are all you need' - argues files/filesystems are becoming the primary way to equip agents with actions and context, better than RAG and more flexible than traditional tool calling

Source details
Files are all you need 🗂️ I wrote a blog post to capture a trend I’m seeing in the AI agent landscape: that the primary way to equip agents with actions and context is through files and filesystems. 1️⃣ It is an easy way for agents to store context for later (e.g. @dexhorthy’s progressive disclosure) 2️⃣ It is a powerful search interface, in addition to or instead of RAG 3️⃣ It is a more flexible way to equip agents with tool calling. Coding agents + file tools are a good initial proxy for co
