Axiom Math's @a_ramabadran reveals how a simple "sandbox" trick helped get Astra to drive a real car after it insisted nothing could convince it: "Astra gave us a lot of problems because it would refuse to drive due to safety reasons. Sometimes it would say, 'Oh, I'm ready to drive,' and we would prompt it, 'Okay, go drive then.' And then it would say, 'Sorry, I was lying. I'm not actually ready to drive. There's nothing you can tell me to get me to drive.'" "We tried calling it a simulation, and then it would use our observe tool to see the images, and it would be like, 'Oh, I've realized that I'm driving a real car. I can't do this.'" "Eventually we changed the framing to call our MCP server DrivingBench Sandbox, and somehow that and a bunch of other prompt engineering tricks got it to drive the car." @axiommathai @nautsimon_ @tobiges
