Plot Twist: Devin is just Scott Wu calculating and programming everything for you hella fast
🤯
You would be surprised to know all 10 people in their team are IOI gold medalists and there are people who are faster and smarter than him in the team.
I know this is out of context but do hardware engineers face ageism like software engineers@@dineshbs444
😁😁😁
yeh funny..pls laugh
I work as a software engineer for 10 years, but if I would meet this guy, I would tell him that I work as an Uber driver in order to avoid the questions that he might ask regarding my knowledge compared to his.
Great Job Bro. If they going to ask you some question you gone be like what to do
😂😂😂😂😂
🤣
😂😂😂
😂😂
1. a^2-b^2 = (a+b)*(a-b) = 500*10
2. here 2 letters must be arranged in an ordered way in 5 distinct positions so 5c2(for 1 and 2) = 10. For the remaining 3 positions - 3 different letters are there so 3*2*1
In total =. 10*3*2*1 = 60
3. MATHLETE is repeating and so every 8th letter will end in E(word's ending) so 2008 which is a multiple of 8 will end in E. Then 2009 and 2010 letters are M and A respectively.

@@ZoroasterIIII'd like to clarify that I'm not drawing any comparison to anyone. I simply want to provide some information to those who might still be looking for a solution. From my experience with YT, I've noticed that people can either be envious or encouraging. I'm confident you know which category you belong to. For your information, I've successfully cleared six national-level exams.
2nd one is more simple than that....
total numbers =5! = 120
so half have 1 to the left of 2 and other half have to the right
so answer is 120/2 = 60

Guys judging him based on this math quiz being easy,
1.he was 12 years old
2.he is a legendary grandmaster in codeforces(a position u can never attain with ur slow mind if u coded 3 lifes)
True
in chinese olympaid math curriculum that rule is probably taught at like age of 10-11, and there are at least of tens lf thousands of chinese kids being taught that rule as part of their olympaid math training each year, it is just not impressive at all tbh.
Despite being a codeforces god, he, his team and his AI software engineer failed to properly program their demo site sucb that the reddit folks could easily launch denial of wallet attacks on their upload endpoint, and in multiple occasions you cannot even register for the preview with some server errpr messages. Their AI may seems impressive at the surface but is hardly useful for any real-life software engineering usage, even the demo they coded out is buggy. It is nothing more than a GitHub Copilot with some sugars

judging how good someone is by their codeforces performance is BS.
Its like how you don't judge the skill of a mathematician by the number of olympiads he was won, but rather by the quality of his papers.

Scott Wu - Sounds like an incredibly bright man as well as his brother! Very impressive history of him!
This shows that he worked hard in it. He probably solved so many questions and equations already to the extent that he memorized it. He also memorized the question types (solving too many of them) so he doesnt need to read the entire Q to understand what it is. I know this because I used to do it too and I am no math genius, it was just easier that way. He is smart but he is more of a hard worker and his main intelligence comes from acknowledging this fact. In summary hard work> being smart but being smart is also necessary to acknowledge this fact. Thank you.
IOI has nothing to do with statistics. That was just the statistics page of IOI website
Thanks for clarifying!
ya right
Yeah, it's problem-solving using algorithms
IOI is basically a programming competition, where you solve mathematical problems with efficient algorithms. The solutions are automatically tested and there's a time limit you have to pass. Many participants compete both in IOI and IMO (International Mathematical Olympiad).

What a genius team, with so many outstanding youth, you may do many thing change the world. Thanks for sharing your story.
1:36 For this question, we do this:
The pattern is:
MATHLETEMATHLETEMATHLETE...
we have to find the 2010th position.
So, the number of letters in the word 'MATHLETE' = 8
When we divide 2010 by 8
The remainder we get is 2 (2010-8*251)
So, the 2nd letter in the word 'MATHLETE' is the correct answer (which is A).
sure but his speed...
The answer is "A":
2010th letter is in the position 2009. 2009mod8=1
0->M ->0mod8=0
1->A -> 1mod8=1
2->T -> 2mod8=2
You have to start counting from 0
Great video! I was looking for the background of the team and you did all the work for me,thanks a lot, I click on the subscribe button too
Awesome, thank you!
This is honestly wild to see something like this come to fruition
2nd question, after 16 letters the characters starts to repeat, so 2010/16 is 125.625, now skip the .625 part and focus on 125, 16*125 is 2000, 2010-2000 = 10, the 16 characters can perfectly repeat 125 times and they make 2000 characters in total, so now the only thing you've to do is check which character is in or will come in the 10th position, which is A. 😅
Okay I overlooked, they're repeating after 8th characters so yeah you can still do it, 2010/8 = 251.25, 251*8= 2008, 2010-2008= 2, and you get A.
It is much easier ... 2010 % 8
yep excatly 2010/8 = 2008 + 2 = 2010 which is the second letter ''A''

He is definitely very smart but regarding the quiz questions shown in the beginning, I am certain that he had practiced similar questions before the actual event. That's why he was able to answer without the question finishing because he knew what the question was from his previous practice.
Bro, you can practice 'similar' problems for a year. But he read the question, understood the question, found the solution (let's say he recalled a similar question', then did the calculation...all in less time than it took the examiner to read the first sentence of the question.
@@t.yop9 Or maybe he had seen and solved that exact question while practicing for the exam.
I've been to one of those competitions (just state not national level) and you can't know the questions beforehand because they're new, and at the national level they're really just good at speed reading the questions and extracting what they need. Although it is possible they've seen a similar type question somewhere else before but it's not guaranteed.
@@magicalhippo There's a also a possibility that it has some pattern which doesn't require solving the entire question. And maybe he used that to solve the question. Though that's still impressive, but not like actually finding the square of both numbers and then subtracting.

The digits question is a nice entry level question.
Requires knowing that 1 followed by a 2 can be achieved 10 ways and for each way, you can order 435 in 6 ways, so 6x10=60.
or 5!/2
Can ya explain ?? Please
@@SimKieu This is also a useful method by first asking 'how many ways can we order the 5 digits' i.e. 5! and then we need to remove any instance when 2 appears before 1 i.e. 1/2 the time because of symmetry.

@@benzz69once u get ur way with the 3 other numbers (ex: 354), now consider the ways I can insert my one and two such that the one is left of 2. The key here, is realizing that is the same problem as picking two spots in these three digits (/3/5/4/, each / denoting spot). Now to pick two of these /'s, the problem is just 5 choose 2 = 10 (if you don't know what 5 choose 2 means, look it up. It's good to know, and cool imo.)

First question: 255^2-245^2=(255-245)(255+245)=10*500=5000
Second question:
There are 5!=120 permutations of numbers, in half of them 1 is to the left of 2, so it's 60.
Third question:
Compute the remainder of 2010 when divided by 8. Since 1000=8*125, you can look only at the last three digits, so it's the remainder of 10 by 8, which is 2. The second letter in mathlete is a.

It's really admirable how Scott is able to solve those questions at a very young age in front of a crowd, He is just extraordinary. But when you think about it, the questions are not really at a very brilliant level. For instance,
1. It's literally a difference of squares and the very fundamental identity a²-b²=(a-b)(a+b) can be used, So 255²-245²=(255-245)(255+245)=5000.
2. This one is a pretty classical question in permutations and combinations classes. If 1 is to the left of 2, Then there are 4 places 1 can be i.e. 1----, -1---, --1--, ---1-. Similarly 2 can be placed in 10 total places. The other numbers can be arranged anywhere resulting in 10*3!=10*6=60
3. The word 'MATHLETE' has 8 letters and 'A' is at the 2nd position, that means 'A' will also occur at every position of the form (8k+2) where 'k' is a whole number. Since 2010(mod8) = 2, i.e, 2010 can be represented as 8k+2 for some integer 'k', you know the position 2010 must contain 'A'. Any number 'x' with the property x(mod8) = 2 will possess the letter 'A'
Now, my argument is that while Scott is indeed a CS and Math prodigy, the questions proposed in the competition are not really the level they should be. Anyone with even 10 hours of practice can ace these questions in seconds. They feel really complex if you don't have a strong grasp over the subject but for someone who has been given this training at a very early stage in life, these questions are a piece of cake. I bet if this was a Chinese or Indian test, he would probably not get the fastest answer.
For instance when I heard about Scott getting the questions blazingly fast, I tried to attempt them myself without having any idea what the questions were and I was able to get the answers nearly as fast as Wu(I was about 4-5 seconds slower than Scott because ofcourse I'm not a prodigy and I'm 17).
It's really harsh to see Scott being known as the guy who solved the math competition questions while he should be known for his Google kickstart participation and others contributions which are way more appreciable than those 3 questions.
🤯
Woah dude, Indians and Chinese
@qaz3433When I said "strong grasp over the subject", I was not referring to the question practice, but having the "Theory" cleared in mind. I hope you know that there is a difference between "Practice" and "Strong grasp".
@qaz3433 Certainly, If you don't know what type of questions are coming up you would require more practice than just 10 hours. But you also know what kind of questions have come up in the previous year competition which give you an idea of the most relevant field. For example: almost everytime, MATHCOUNTS asks a question related to pattern, permutation and combination. In that case, it would require maybe a little more practice(apart from the time given to theory). I am saying all of this with reference to my own experience because I was also given similar training at a young age(not as young as Scott).
@@MayankXOR You are missing the point. Those 3 questions are presented as examples because they are accessible to a wider audience. Of course they could also show him solving Codeforces 3500 rated questions or solving IOI problems, but that would be pointless as most people are not even aware of the purpose of these contests.
(255-245 =10) times (255+245 = 500) = 5000. All you need is to know the difference of squares method.
Oh come on.... Everybody knows it but this guy is a legend
Thanks, I didn't know this
Folks, it’s not about how to solve this problem at his age. It how fast he answer it and proven over and over of grandmaster level at his early age.
Not a Harvard dropout, a Harvard skipper.
Bro just lied on the resume from very first day.
1:15 Very easy! The 8 letter word "MATHLETE" is being repeated. You want to know what letter is number 2010. Then you use the 8 times table. 800 + 800 + 400 = 2000. Then 10 remains, that gives you one MATHLETE, and the beginning two letters of the next MATHLETE: "MA". Thus the answer is "A".
Math bee competitions are never about the difficulty of math questions (for that, have a look at IMO). All of the questions in math bee-ish competitions are really easy, and the deciding factor almost every time is how fast you can solve that easy question.
@@naman.0316 Yeah, which requires a lot of training, less about talent.
The first question and third question he can probably solve on the spot realistically usually a few math tricks, but the second problem I'm almost certain he probably did that problem before and just knew the answer. Or at least a very similar one and then just substituted out the difference.
It’s more than math. Looking at Scott’s body language, he was speed reading the questions from the moment the question appeared and was solving for it before the host even began reading the question.
Give a link where it specifies architecture - is it truly "AI" itself or is this just a slew of api calls, a lovely UI wrapper, and some sort of scheduler?
Whatever it is, you throw a link at it with some outline of your project, and it spits out a perfectly debugged output.
IMO this is historic, it's like the start of gold mining in the 1800's, it will only get better from now on.
The questions were honestly not that difficult.
1. 255^2 - 245^2... come on guys, it's just (a+b)(a-b) = a^2 - b^2 in reverse.
2. Anybody who has had an INTRODUCTION to P&C will be able to crack it.
3. MATHLETE MATHLETE MATHLETE is a recurring pattern with 8 letters, so 2010 mod 8 = 2 which means the 2nd character of the pattern ('A'). This was actually the easiest.
Regarding his speed, it's just a matter of practice. I hate math or mathematicians being unnecessarily glorified, the narrator should have researched a bit to see how simple these questions were. If only people in the comments section knew that they could very easily reach this level too...
The first question is pretty easy if you know the trick. 255^2 - 245^2 = (255+245) * (255 - 245) = 500 * 10 = 5000.
Seriously man who doesn't know it 🙃
lots of people knows it. but its Scot's calculation speed. also many people won't be able to calculate in the heads(without pen/paper/calculator) even if have long time.
but he didnt even wait for him to say out the 2nd integer bro
he needn't wait. he could read the question on big screen, or his personal screen. he can read faster that presenter speaks.
i can do above mentioned calculation in mind in 2-3 minutes. most people in the world won't be able to do so in a whole day. see scot wu is 100-200 times faster than me in this calculation.
so then why was he cheating (=lying in the given context) in the devin ai video clips?!
In the first question you have to do
(255-245)×(255+245) = 10×500 = 5000
In the second, (5×4×3×2)/2 = 60
In the third, the (remainder of 2010÷8) = 2. And find the letter at that position which is A.
I would suggest him to work on fusion reaction to generate cheap energy, that would help human way more than AI.
This is truly revolutionary. Over multiple iterations of the product it’s ought to get scarily good.
Man this video is great! 🔥Where did you get the idea to make it and how did you funnel all the research you gathered to create something so educational?

Why doesn't Cognition AI let Devin to work for them? I mean that's it, there is not point to even hire Scott wu if you have something to good like Devin right?
I think that'll be phase 2, to let the AI train the next generation
First one , ( a+b)( a-b)= a²-b² means
( 255+245)(255-245)= 500×10= 5000 .more more practice esy , but he was super intelligent too
2010th letter
Total 8 letters
2010/8 gives 251 as quotient and 2 as reminder. So the 2nd letter of MATHLETE is "A"
Why is it that when I ask CHATGPT who Scott Wu is, he replies that he doesn't know such a person?
Actually, those questions are not hard, but speed of solving them is fascinating.
Scott Wu. Incredible!!
Good video and information. Definitely a company to watch
Thanks!
For the first question (255^2-245^2), he memorized the difference of squares formula, which states a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b). If you know this, solving is super trivial and anybody can solve this problem in under 10 seconds.
hats off to you already if you had that kind of memorization skills
Im still very sceptical. To me it seems more like, that they faked the demo or prearagned it, to get investor money, to solve this problem. They could not even write a propper job description on their page. Yes they are very talented programer, but this means nothing when it comes to solve hard ai problems
Exactly!!!
i asked chatgpt the first question and it says its 18 not 60 .
and this is the reasoning
In the arrangement where the digit 1 is to the left of the digit 2, there are indeed more possibilities than initially considered.
When 1 is in the first position and 2 is in the second position:
There are 3 remaining digits (3, 4, 5) to be placed in the last three positions, which gives
3
!
3! permutations.
Total arrangements for this case:
1
×
1
×
3

1×1×3! =
6

When 1 is in the first position and 2 is in the third position:
Again, there are 3 remaining digits (3, 4, 5) to be placed in the last three positions, resulting in
3
!
3! permutations.
Total arrangements for this case:
1
×
1
×
3
!
1×1×3! =
6
6.
When 1 is in the first position and 2 is in the fourth position:
Once more, there are 3 remaining digits (3, 4, 5) to be placed in the last three positions, yielding
3
!
3! permutations.
Total arrangements for this case:
1
×
1
×
3
!
1×1×3! =
6
6.
Adding up the arrangements from each case:
6
+
6
+
6
=
18
6+6+6=18
Upon reevaluation, the total number of such integers where the digit 1 is to the left of the digit 2 is indeed 18, not 60. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
We're yet to see any evidence that Devin even exists though. Has anyone actually seen it?
That is cold. You need help.
Finally someone with an actual brain in the comment section. People are so easily to convince.
Saying someone should drop out of Harvard is silly, if you have a degree; that's something to fall back on. If you have a Harvard full ride, stay in and take the easiest classes (whatever the rich kids take.) If paying, I don't know; Harvard's expensive. I went to local college, then got an MBA in finance from the online offering of a state school.
Last time the media hyped about a genius with an amazing startup we had FTX. Just saying…. Scott Wu certainly is a top competitive programmer but this hype seems like the typical pump and dump startup from deep pockets (Oh wait Peter Thiel as investor)
wake up, these are marketing campaigns. On these quizes usually they give you a book with quiz and answers. So you just need to remember the correct answer.

In the demo it showed, ai encountered error. Then it added a print statement to debug and fix it.
It's just the beginning. Imagine what this team could do with an AI like Devin. They are creating an instrument for themselves to start making some really cool stuff.
I look forward to the day when I can build a full app just by talking to a team of AI agents
I believe he had practiced so much that he had already solved those questions before while practicing so he recalled the answers and told instantly..bcoz its literally inhuman to solve it that fast
Nah, if you have good genetics you can
Or, just good genetics
Well, to be honest the questions in the beginning aren't really difficult. You can easily solve them if you know basic Algebra and Permutation and Combinations. Solving them that fast tho, requires a lot of practice. I could solve them in around 15 seconds.
i’m speechless. incredible

bro the 2nd question is 5!/2! my friend
Heres why;
5 number of object or n=5
2 the number of r taken at the the time, that is 1 and 2.
Its a linear permutation and the formula for it if it is conditional then,
n! / nk1,nk2...
so 5!/2! is equal to 60
The questions are actually from a pool and they're given ahead of time to the students who've memorized them and just waiting to regurgitate the info, it's not actually "on the fly".
12:22 You have an error in your video. It can't solve 14% of coding task. It can solve 14% of the SWE-bench which is a software engineer benchmark. Thats two different things. Another mistake in my view is, the argumentation of his coding skills and the ability to solve hard problem. Yes it is more likely that a more experience developer solves a hard problem. But there is no garantee. A professor can try to solve a hard software problem for years, but at the end it could be solved by a kid developer in the basement. It has something to do with creativity and thinking outside the box, not with education

We could solve the first question as 255^2 - 245^2= (250+5)^2-(250-5)^2 and by using binomial rule and sequence it will equal 2×summation of secon tems in binomial whic is 2×2C1×250×5 equal 5000 i know that can be solved by diff between two square but this way is generlized form to solve question if we have power greater than 2
The third question as the mathlete repeated every 8 letters so 2010/8 =126(1/4) by taking reminder 1/4 and make base equal 8 like 2/8 it will be second letter A
he did not calculate, he knew from quiz training books the answer to 255^2 - 245^2.. he just answered. Its like 4+4 = 8 , you hardly put brain cells to calculate, you just know from experience its 8
@4:38 IOI is not an Olympiad focused on statistics. In simple terms, it involves participants competing to solve programming puzzles. Essentially, participants write code to solve these puzzles, and they earn scores when their solutions run efficiently and correctly on test cases. It is generally considered the second hardest Olympiad after the International Mathematical Olympiad. Regardless, almost all participants at the international level in all top Olympiads (math, informatics, physics, etc.) are incredibly talented people.
@ai-tools-search please correct to avoid misinformation.
Can devin built a new operating system from scratch
The got caught for lying and faking demo.
These are the kind of people we need to run for president…
Wu is a great genius not easily come across in everyday life. At his and his team calibre, there could be more things they can do together to a full human capacity. I just can't wait to see his god-level calibre. 555
i'm ngl those questions where pretty easy, I mean I did them within seconds too (although I read the question a lot slower), and I'm by no means a math genuis, what's more impressive tho is his codeforces rating.
AI + genius software engineer = AI software engineer
The mathlete one wasn't hard, but in that speed, yes.
You just count how many letters are in mathlete which is 8. So you divide 2010 by 8 to see how many times you can fit that word in 2010 times. But it's not complete, you get a fraction. 2010/8 is 251.25. that means it's only 1/4 through the last word. Because there are 8 letters, 1/4 of the word is the letter A.
Here's why:
M .125 (1/8)
A .25 (2/8)
T .375 (3/8)
H 50(4/8)
L .625(5/8)
E .75(6/8)
T .875 (7/8)
E 1 (8/8)
The 3rd Questions Solutions is:- Just count the letters in the single word MATHLETE which is 8, then divide 2010/8= 251 and the remainder is 2 . Count the letter in that word which is on second position .
Therefore the answer is "A" which is on 2nd place.........
But its really fascinating that Scott Wu is able to answer these question very rapidly in there teenage...... Thats why he is founder of Cognition now..:):)
You didn't even talk about the most interesting of all agent tools that is actually released and working (because Devin an many others are just videos today), pythagora
you're right, pythagora is also great!
He doesn't have to. It's his youtube channel
It's only a matter of time before they reach 90%.
Those 2011 MathCount clips of him as a child were undoubtedly staged, no human can solve all of these 3 problems within 3 seconds.
As in, answers via ear-speaker. Everyone does this in public live televised speeches.
His family is rich anyway, so why not boost the kid, especially if it's gifted?
That said, those olympiads' results are true. The problems contained within offer time and you can calculate them on paper, instead of finishing them in the mind in 3 seconds lol
Do you think software engineers will be unemployed in the future?
Not entirely but greatly reduce the work force
If that's the case, who will be employed?
Can Devin build another Devin
One thing everyone is missing in my opinion is, if you are not smart enough like Wu then you don't have right to feed yourself, coz AI will be everywhere, right??? So, what if someone smashes you on the street and tells you that you are not allowed to walk on street coz you are not strong enough!!! You may call this unethical, but in my opinion building such AI tools is more unethical, coz that will lead to more unhappy society and we all know what an unhappy society can do to each other. That's my personal opinion.
I don’t know how the kid did the first one so fast, must be a math trick. The second one is 5! factorial divided by 2, because half the unique combinations would have a 1 after the 2, so 5*4*3. (Of course I would have also gotten smoked lol)
What I like is that the Wus and their partners took off their shoes before entering the workspace.
first one was easy af , a^2-b^2 , 5000 popped in my mind in an instant
Still depends on prompts. These tools are only useful if you already have the background knowledge or know what to ask.
80% of being a software engineer is determining and understanding the requirements. This doesn't solve that.
i dont undertsand how u can answer a guestion when the guestion isnt finished am i stupid or that doesnt make sense ?
The only plausible explanation is they had a screen in front of them displaying the question
Send this kid to mars. at least we can get rid of layoffs because of ai
The glazing is crazy, you know there's specific preparations and optimal ways to solve those math comp problems which they practice rigorously beforehand right?
yeah it's obvious when you realize that he doesn't even wait for the question to be finished, this is not genius, purely intensive training.
He doesn't think, he knows the questions in advance, purely memory.
Fr it's honestly suprising how easy it is to convince people.
Ahh i used to prep for these olympiads in middle school. he is indeed very smart. most of these are kinda easy-ish but still, very impressive. What I think is that cognition labs has marketed their product wonderfully. Because devin is not the first of its kind. there are a lot of such intelligent agents available. this shows the power of marketing.
the speed is crazy tho
Neal Wu is his brooo ! That is a plot twist irl !!!!!
