AI could make scientists do more work less well, not less work better, study argues

Even if language models worked perfectly, they could make research worse, not better. A new theoretical study argues that because AI saves time, researchers' remaining hours become more valuable and get funneled into starting new projects instead of improving existing ones. In two out of three modeled scenarios, the quality of individual publications drops. The article AI could make scientists do…

Context Engineering Inside the Harness: 4 Mechanisms That Beat Context Overflow and Goal Loss on Long-Horizon Tasks

A shallow agent is an LLM calling tools in a loop, and on long tasks it fails in 2 ways: context overflow and goal loss. This article opens the harness layer that fixes both, with the actual thresholds shipped by LangChain Deep Agents, Claude Code, Manus, OpenAI Codex and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, plus an interactive simulator that shows a 200K window filling up. The post Context Engineering…
