Writing on Elliot Massen

I built a mystery game powered by AI, where multiple agents play the suspects (and your ghostly sidekick) with each holding private knowledge, lying under questioning, and staying consistent across multiple turns without leaking the solution.

Recently I’ve been spending more time in Claude Code on Desktop than in the CLI.

If you want to run multiple AI coding agents in parallel, Git Worktrees are a useful trick.

Things move quickly in the AI space, and I’ve found my ability to write up my thoughts on this site hasn’t really kept up.

Agent UX tends to signpost model limitations and is heavily shaped by technical constraints.

The following is the current list of AI tools I use each day, both at work and personally.

It seems that DeepSeek can’t be mentioned without referring to it being developed by a Chinese team 🤔 This rarely applies to the efforts of US or European teams however!

New LLM features like OpenAI’s Tools and Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol offer some quick wins for interfacing with external systems.

I had a blast at Unparsed this week ✨️ There were so many great talks on both the design and dev tracks, as well as some really interesting projects coming out of the hackathon.

One simple example of bias in large language models is to ask a question like “Who was President in 2003?”

I’ve been continuing to read a lot about generative AI and large language models.

July 2023 saw the announcement of three new developments in large language models: Meta’s Llama 2, Anthropic’s Claude 2, and StackOverflow’s OverflowAI.

This month’s bookmarks span the topics of AI, cybernetics, logging & resilience.

December came and went before I knew it!

This article was originally published on 24 Days in December.

I recently find myself spending a lot more time reading technical blogs, and coming across many insightful and interesting posts.

Preface This year I’m determined to get back into reading.

I thought it would be worth posting a short update on the status of this blog as I haven’t written in some time.

Last week, a pull request was opened on the Lerna repository.

After the longest break from blogging since I started in 2016, I’m back!

2018 has begun!

Even though 2017 is now dead and gone, I still want to do this blog justice and finish up my entries for the year.

In the last two months I started back at uni for my second year and won first place at a hackathon!

In the last month before my next year at University: I moved into a flat with my girlfriend, released the first major update to the TRIM-IT app and dabbled with websites on a peer-to-peer browser!

July sees the second half of the year!

Another double month post this time, in May and June I had my end of year exams, rolled out a new product and took a short trip to Manchester.

I can’t believe it’s already the end of April, 2017 is moving so quickly!

This monthly thing isn’t really working out so well.

So I missed my October post, to be honest I expected to miss a post here or there.

A year ago this month marks when I moved into my halls at University.

As I write I’m on the 29 bus back to Brighton.

So it’s 2AM and I’ve decided I have to start blogging at least monthly.

I was an average swimmer when I was 12 years old.

Since publishing this article, I worked as a full-time web developer for two years before I changed my mind and attended university.

As I mentioned in my previous post, I seem to have managed to become enthusiastic about the web again.

Recently I have found a renewed interest in web design and development.

Hello again, might as well keep some what of a log on what I’m doing to the website, even if it’s just for personal reference, as it doesn’t have much other use.

Just checking back in.

As you can see the design has changed to a much better one, in my opinion.

Blog post uno!!
