    I have counter evidence of this. My wife with absolutely zero skills in computers was at the terminal doing things that Claude was telling her to do and generated some impressive t…

    If you are stuck in vim, it's :q. If you are stuck in life, stay with us, we want you to stay.

    I have to say. Nice work. I spent years wanting to build something like this to integrate to these systems. I never did but have spent years thinking about this. So, nice work and …

    I keep going back to the debate with myself. Do I give my now-young kids 500K in an ETF in 14 years or do I send them to college? And the debate is not about how they will spend it…

    Funny. He foreshadowed this in a recent interview. Saying that he may fall out of touch with evolving approaches and if any of the frontier labs would have him, he’d be interested.…

    Ha, same. I absolutely love everything about my MacBook Pro.

    Could you share more detail on how the AI layer is used? Is it an LLM?

    Does anyone know of any HR departments actually using LLMs for scoring, selection, extraction, classification or any real use cases? I'm curious to hear about it and how they are u…

    Oh my gosh, this really brought me back. Haven't played that game in 30 years. What a great use of AI. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

    Curious on why you think this. Any data points that led you to this?

    I rarely bookmark things but just did. For some reason, I never get this data concisely from Google search and always look for it. Nice job.

    How many proprietary use cases truly need pre-training or even fine-tuning as opposed to RAG approach? And at what point does it make sense to pre-train/fine tune? Curious.

    I still use AirPods for listening but if I’m ever taking a call, I always use EarPods (USB-C). The microphone quality is multiple times better and that’s important to me. Especiall…

    Mostly same story. Tinkered for hours with Windows 3.1 floppy disks. Reinstalling OS’s all the time because I’d break stuff or I’d just want a fresh slate. I loved pushing the boun…

    Has anyone tried to use a laptop at night? It’s pretty hard without lit keys. Maybe this one has some super reflective letters so that the screen lights them up.

    What expense app are you building? I really want an app that helps me categorize transactions for budgeting purposes. Any recommendations?

    My advice is a little different. It’s make the life of your boss insanely easy. Similar in nature to post but slightly different optimization function. Don’t over communicate, comm…

    When I read the publications (the ACM magazine), I swear sometimes the content feels LLM generated. Does anyone else get that impression? In general, I'm not very impressed with th…

    The way I think of it (might be wrong) but basically a model that has similar sensors to humans (eyes, ears) and has action-oriented outputs with some objective function (a goal to…

    This is a very smart idea. I couldn't turn my Ring Alarm off and I was on the same Wifi connection as the system. In retrospect, it would be quite smart to switch over to local net…

    :) I mean, you always by a faster car. My interest is in the ability to enhance the voice quality of the uber-portable AirPods using AI.

    Exactly. This was my point. Televisions can upconvert from 720p to 4k. In the same sense, the machine learning model would fill in the waveform and mimic a high powered mic. It can…
