It’s the only path to AI we can trust, delegate to, and rely on. Aloe exists to build tools to help human cognition succeed in an information-dense world it did not evolve to handle. We believe this…

on “Ask HN: Who is hiring? (October 2025)”The missing science to engineer intelligence is composable program synthesis. Aloe ( https://aloe.inc ) recently released a GAIA score demonstrating how CPS dramatically outperforms other generalist agents (OpenAI's deep research, Manus, and Genspark) on tasks similar to those a knowledge worker would perform. I'd argue it's because intelligence has been treated as a ML/NN engineering problem that we've had the hype…

on “AGI is an engineering problem, not a model training problem”I'd argue that it's because intelligence has been treated as a ML/NN engineering problem that we've had the hyper focus on improving LLMs rather than the approach you've written about. Intelligence must be built from a first principles theory of what intelligence actually is. The missing science to engineer intelligence is composable program synthesis. Aloe ( https://aloe.inc ) recently released a GAIA score demonst…

on “AGI is an engineering problem, not a model training problem”As a startup that chose to locate in Canada, we’ve already had a dozen amazing candidates currently in the US reach out and apply for roles since we shared our thinking earlier this week [0]. The feeling of ambient immigration hostility in the US (even beyond any one specific policy) is palpable. 0: https://aloe.inc/blog/the-best-talent-in-the-world

on “OpenAI’s latest research paper demonstrates that falsehoods are inevitable”“panoply of grifters and chancers and financial engineers” — accurate Yet, let’s look at intelligence for a sec… it’s been evolving for quite some time and isn’t stopping at humans. Humans are building intelligence at a rate far faster than biological evolution. It is almost inevitable (pending humans wiping ourselves out by any number of catastrophic failures of governance) that we will build intelligence that supe…
