[Python-announce] [ANN] CAEL 0.3.8 - non-neural chat assistant (integer CA + symbolic)

Show all headers | View raw

CAEL 0.3.8 is out.

CAEL is a Python chat assistant with no neural network: an integer
cellular automaton plus symbolic engines, CPU only (559 MiB peak RAM).
Every Python function it writes is run in a bounded interpreter before
it answers.

What's new in 0.3.8 (code-only update on the 0.3.7 model bundle):
- stops inventing personal facts (e.g. a birthplace)
- honors "no advice / no questions" requests in more phrasings
- fixes a word-problem regression
- runs generated code only in a restricted VM

Benchmark (measured on 0.3.7): on a frozen 80-item test it scored 57/80
vs Qwen3-0.6B 43 and Qwen3.5-0.8B 41, and 15/18 vs 6 and 3 on the
Python subset. AI coding agents wrote the test questions and reviewed
the answers (unblinded). Losses: Qwen3.5-0.8B leads a broader
400-question test 181 vs 121, Qwen is better at conversation, and math
is unchanged in 0.3.8.
