Expanded summary (from https://t.me/TauAgorasANN):-
Andrei has made substantial progress in bridging Tau and ChatGPT. This month, he devised a way for ChatGPT to transform user input into a format suitable for Tau processing, resolving a long-standing issue concerning user input. The integration with ChatGPT now offers numerous opportunities for the central Tau system, with a paramount focus on maintaining precision in implementations to prevent logic errors.
Tomáš has advanced his work on TML, the Tau parser library. Alongside his development, he has fortified the library's documentation, concluding the CSV tutorial for the Tau parser library. Moreover, he addressed and resolved several library bugs identified during testing, notably issues concerning conjunction, negations, and specifying maximum input length.
David has focused on the Tau language, improving the rewriting system. He has been refactoring to integrate it with the earley parser project. David has been diligently creating integration and unit tests for the rewriting system, preparing it for its integration phase in Tau.
Umar's has been concentrating on the Tau parcel library, specifically improving its storage efficiency. He introduced a new storage system named 'single-ended storage', optimal during parsing and forest generation. Through rigorous experimentation, Umar identified a balanced relationship between storage capacity, garbage collection, and retrieval speeds. Additionally, he fixed specific bugs, incorporated stress tests, and analyzed the implications of the new storage system on binarization and overall performance.
Ohad has been focusing on the two-variable fragments. These fragments are of two distinct types: those with counting and those without. This month marked a significant accomplishment: completing the fragment without counting. This was not just any completion, but a robust one that paves the way for extensions into other intricate logics. Furthermore, this achievement enhances the Tau language and positions it as both a foundational knowledge representation language and a base logic that Tau can further expand. This is undeniably a commendable achievement. Our attention has shifted towards developing the counting component of the two-variable fragment. We are optimistic about the results and eagerly await another milestone.
Below is the transcript for the month's update:-
"Welcome back to the July update from the Tau team. It is the developer update, the moment you've been waiting for. I'll pass it over to Karim for an overview for the month."
"Hello everybody, and welcome to the July update for the Tau development team. David has been working on the Tau language as usual, and this month he's been able to improve the rewriting system. He's been refactoring it with the goal of merging it with the earley parser project. To that end, he's been writing integration tests and unit tests to cover the entire rewriting system and prepare it for the integration phase of Tau. Umar continued his work on DML and the Tau parser Library. He's been optimizing the storage for the library with a new storage scheme called single-ended storage. He's experimented with different approaches and found a good trade-off between storage requirements, garbage collection, and retrieval speeds. He's also fixed some bugs and added stress tests for the entire system. Andre has been focusing on the integration between Tau and ChatGPT. He's set aside all development on the Tau live system to dedicate himself to this project. This month, he made progress in making ChatGPT convert user input into a format that Tau can readily understand and process. This solves a long-standing problem for Tau in creating and processing user input. This new possibility with ChatGPT opens up many options for the main Tau system. The main focus of this integration is on precise implementations to avoid introducing errors in the logic process. That's it for the Tau development team's July update. I'll see you guys next month"
"Now, I'll pass it over to Andrei with updates on Tau live and everything else."
"Hey everyone, it's been a great month exploring, experimenting, and pushing the boundaries of what we can achieve, we're on the brink of something truly groundbreaking here. You might be aware that we're close to finishing the Tau live development, but I've pumped the brakes on that for a moment. You might ask why do that. The answer is, we've got an amazing opportunity at hand to integrate Tau with our very own ChatGPT interface. And that's exactly what I've been delving into. And guess what? The news is great. I've been able to make substantial progress on this matter, after a lot of head-scratching and tweaking. I've successfully refined ChatGPT to take user inputs and translate them into the input that Tau can comprehend and process with ease. This breakthrough opens the doors to a realm of new opportunities, and I know the possibilities are just absolutely amazing. My focus as we move forward is to perfect the implementation of the ChatGPT plugin. This will make this remarkable integration possible. So stay tuned for more exciting updates. Thank you, everyone, and have a good August."
"Now, I'll pass it over to David for his update."
"Thank you, fellow. Hi, everyone. This month, I've been mostly working on the rewriting system. I've made several refactors and improvements. I've also made changes to integrate the rewriting system into the earley parser directly. I've added many unit tests to fully cover the execution of the rewriting system. Currently, I'm working on integration tests needed to test the normalization phase of the Tau language. That's what I've been doing this month."
"Next, let's hear from Tomáš."
"Thank you, Fola. Hello, everyone. This month, I've been working on the parser library and its documentation. I've created a CSV parser tutorial to help learn to use the parser library. I've fixed several bugs identified during testing, including issues with specifying a maximum length of input and problems with conjunction and negation. That's all from me this month."
"Thank you. Now, Umar, please share your update."
"Team, hope you're doing great. So this month, basically, we have enabled a single storage of early items within the parsing and forest-building phase. Previously, they were stored in auxiliary data structures as well, but now they are stored in one single container. Everything that needs to be garbage collected will be from this container. This has an impact on the retrieval of the early items from these containers, but they will require separate optimization, which we will attempt later. I also experimented with different approaches to find the right trade-off for better storage, retrieval speed, and garbage collection. Based on insights from these experiments, I will make further changes this month. In parallel, bugs were identified and fixed. Also, the impact of these changes on other features like binarization were evaluated. New test cases were added to the system. Thank you."
"Thank you, Umar. Finally, let's hear from Ohad."
"As I'm saying, in the last months, I've been working on the two-variable fragments. There are two kinds of the two-variable fragments: with and without counting. So this month, the fragment without counting is finished. It's done in a robust way that extends to other logics and even extends the Tau language itself. It's not only serving as a knowledge representation language but also as a base logic that can be extended by Tau. This is a significant achievement. Now, we're focusing on completing the counting part of the two-variable fragment. We hope it will be successful."
"That's it for the team's updates. Thank you all for tuning in. Please subscribe to our channel for more exciting updates. We'll see you in the next update. Cheers and goodbye."

Wow, the part with ChatGPT integration sounds really exciting... But again I cannot understand many parts of this so maybe there are more exciting parts than ChatGDP. 😅
I wish team will always work for tau and make it successful day by day.
Oh, I like how the team has different really complex roles that are all joined together to make Tau a success. And I like that you used this medium to explain which is creative in its own right. Big cheers to you✨
