Software engineering and AI.
There are two ways to use AI:
1) the wrong way: vibe coding (bullshit technical debt creation);
2) the right way: as a code review assistant (ChatGPT is great at that).

Rose Dieng-Kuntz would have been 70 years old today. The first African woman admitted to the Ecole Polytechnique, she soon rose to the top rank of computer scientists through her work on the semantic web and research on parallelism and ontology in early AI systems.

ChatGPT really is quite brilliant at reviewing (and finding bugs) in C++ code. #cpp #coding #AI #compsci #ChatGPT
Shoutout to Rutgers University Cybersecurity Club (RUSEC) for representing Rutgers University at the Information Security Talent Search (ISTS) 2026 at RIT in Rochester! The competition challenged teams across multiple stages, testing both technical skill and teamwork. #rutgers #compsci
This blog post by Gil Kalai should be read in conjunction with the NYTimes article on this year Turing Award. It puts the "coulds" in context.

I would only note that there are a lot of "coulds" in the article.

Happy birthday to the genius Emmy Noether, who revolutionised abstract algebra!
Both in (continuous) group theory, allowing a deeper understanding of physics and in commutative algebra, allowing breakthroughs in algebraic geometry leading to distributed computing.

I recently learned in my #compsci course how to calculate #binary, and just generally remembered how to work with converting base 10 to other bases.
This course really lets me #nerd out on such small things. On that note: 1000101
iykyk ;)
I just hope I keep up this degree of passion.
AI bubble will soon burst, I predict. There is too much technical debt (created by AI code generation) and too much monetary debt (hyperscaler investment). #AI #compsci
New paper... Canonical Forms and Widening for Two Variables Per Inequality Systems, with Martin Brain, in the Mathematics in Computer Science. Discusses canonical forms for two variable per inequality systems, and widening for weakly relational domains. #compsci link.springer.com/article/10.1...

The great software engineering schism, coming soon. Pick a side. Do you use AI to generate code and then attempt to review it or will you, human, write code yourself and then leverage AI to review it? I am not a prompt engineer, I am a coder, through and through. #AI #compsci #engineering #tools
I think there will soon be two software engineering camps: those who use AI to generate code and those who use AI to review code; I am in the latter camp. #AI #compsci
ChatGPT is now my C++ code reviewer of choice -- it spotted a bug in a fairly complex commit that both Grok and Claude missed. #AI #compsci #coding #gamedev #cpp
"Reflective Reasoning rewrites the CoT to appear slow, careful, and methodical (e.g., explicit self-checks or step-by-step deliberation). This exploits an effort heuristic, where apparent deliberation is mistaken for correctness or rigor."
"We observe that content-based fabrications, specifically Progress Fabrication, induces the largest increases in both flip rate and FPR, indicating a particularly strong failure mode for VLM judges, while Reflective Reasoning remains comparatively benign." "Figure 7: Average judge susceptibility across CoT manipulation strategies, showing relative and absolute [change in false positive rate). Error bars denote variability across models."

How well can #AI judge reasoning quality?
Rewriting agents' chain-of-thought "style" to *appear* more reflective (without changing action or inference) increased an #LLM judge's false positive rate (by 3% absolute or 18% relative).
