563 upvotes for a 2 paragraph post of someone complaining about AI images in someone else's blogs? This is "Bicycle face" level of hatred (or fear) against new technology.

I love Google's and duck duck go AI suggestions. Am I crazy? I feel like 90% of the time they answer my question right there. It will definitively be a problem in the long term for…

LLMs are aligned to be cautious. And “good” financial advice is extremely simple. A conservative approach gets you there 80% of the time. Is when people want to get too smart (or t…

I'll take advantage of your domain knowledge :) Where's the best place to find local artists that produce them?

Didn't expect to see a MESHUGGAH reference in HN today. Not bad.

I loved it, i hated it. I'm so bad at this. I think summarizing everybody's feedback the simplest solution is: "Game difficulty". - Standard: what you have today - Relaxed: 1 minut…

Forget AI agents, this DSL is better even for humans. Cool project!

Yours looks much nicer!

Lately I've noticed that "Who wants to be hired" posts are getting more comments than the "Who's hiring" ones. I pulled the data using HN API and confirmed this "reversal". "Who wa…

David's talks at PyCon are all amazing. My favorite is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCs5OvhV9S4 Funny enough, a few months ago we decided to start a new project and we…

I think we're missing the important point here. The problem is not that the ID wallets require Google and Apple. The problem is that we're getting eaten alive by this Big Brother c…

This is all super interesting, but I can't decide what's the MOST interesting thing: 1. The whole Pollen case (I didn't know about) 2. That Google can be tricked so easily? 3. The …

The fact that you're not naming any cost related variable reflects your own current personal situation (privileged, I'd assume). But this is NOT the situation for most people in th…

That is true, but I have to be honest and say that I didn’t make the connection until I saw Bellard’s project for the first time, and I said: “ah! That actually makes A LOT of sens…

Bellard has a very interesting project that is `ts_zip`, a compression algorithm powered by LLMs. It's just an "experiment" and should never be used in production, but very smart. …

> Senior technical Anthropic staff doesn't seem to be a political meeting, but rather a technical one. Maybe they'll review the jailbreaks and demonstrate that can be replicated in…

Whatsapp is working fine for me (in Europe) btw

Not at all, I had the same feeling as yours the first time I read it. I think the key is that the "encoder" they're using is just a linear projection, which is probably pretty fast…

I don't think it's the same. It's a similar concept, but Gemma is using just a linear projection, which I assume is a lot faster. The developer guide has more details: https://deve…

I mean, "Cannes" the city right? lol

I don't own Apple Vision Pro, but I tested them two times already and I'm amazed by the technology. I honestly think it's the future. We're probably WAY too early yet, and the Visi…

General consultancy is an extremely crowded space. As a startup CEO, I get at least 3 emails per week from software agencies and consultants. On top of that, they're usually locate…

This looks like a very interesting model and very promising, especially after llama lost so much ground recently. I hope they release the weights

But doesn't $15M/day of inference cost imply "demand" from users? If this is the case, it's just a matter of time until costs can be reduced.
