New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: Could DNA be represented as "an embedding" in an AI model?

Ask HN: Could DNA be represented as "an embedding" in an AI model? 3 by greenmoonx | 1 comments on Hacker News. Where each Array element is a numerical value that corresponds to the order of TCAG chemicals on the crossbar of the helix of a DNA strand? Has anyone modeled many DNA strands in this way? If it was done, what kinds of problems could we solve using AI - assuming we could model any known DNA, and predict out generations? ----- I guess there are at least a couple options: 1) Model an entire DNA strand as 1 model, with each gene (section of DNA) being a vector. So you'd have, say, a C. elegans model. You could play with that species in an AI sandbox. 2) Model all of DNA (the way we model all of language) to end up with a "DNA AI" that can produce any kind of strand (perhaps inventing genes that don't exist, but could). So here you have a biology sandbox, where you can invent perhaps new creatures, or predict out future states of humans, to test d...

New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: Should a coding client import another client's rules by default?

Ask HN: Should a coding client import another client's rules by default? 2 by ryanmerket | 0 comments on Hacker News. An AI coding client automatically reads ~/.codex/AGENTS.md and ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md. These are personal instruction files inside competing coding clients' configuration directories, outside the project selected by the user. Their complete contents are added to the first model request and sent to the client's servers by default. At startup, the client displays a brief notice saying it is including the other clients' personal rules. It does not ask permission first. A command-line option disables the behavior. The configuration guide says: "Your machine-wide user rules always load." It requires users to trust a workspace before loading project instruction files. The machine-wide files load automatically. I tested this by placing a harmless canary instruction in ~/.codex/AGENTS.md. The client followed it during a default run. It did not follow i...
