I'm pleased to announce OxCaml! OxCaml is Jane Street's branch of OCaml. We've given it a new name and a snazzy logo, and done a bunch of work to make it easy for people to try.

New paper out today on how the careful design of LLMs is crucial for expert-level evidence retrieval in conservation (but with implications for any evidence synthesis pipeline across other fields) 🌍 doi.org/10.1371/jour... and anil.recoil.org/news/2024-ce... for a summary

Just how good are locally hostable code models on Cambridge first year OCaml assignments? @anil.recoil.org , @jon.recoil.org and I wanted to find out, so ran some tests. TL;DR Qwen3 means we might need new assignments. toao.com/blog/ocaml-l...

New preprint from our work on using LLMs to accelerate conservation evidence synthesis across millions of papers. We crosscheck 3 retrieval strategies against 10 LLMs and benchmark against human experts and find quite a bit of variance https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-5409185/v1
