I've dumped python for anything that doesn't involve scipy / pytorch in favor of go. So yes, I'm having my llm's output go now which is generally more memory efficient than python.…

I am so happy that Anthropic has signaled the possibility that their UI moat for agentic AI is copyable by competitors. At least that's the way I read this. When companies try to l…

I wish the author had not used the words "Abandoned Mine in the Atacama Desert" Abandoned mine would've been fine. But now you've communicated the value of your find and given a ba…

Awesome!! Super excited to try this out. Amazing work.

I've been using obsidian for years as a paying customer. Will continue to pay as price point is good and it just works. However, unless plugin security massively improves I will ne…

This is why I NEVER install any obsidian plugins - EVER. Obsidian itself is good. Obsidian plugins = security nightmare.

I did not realize Boris made the tutorial that got me into programming. Wow. What a great find! And is the Ilya S Ilya Sutskever?

This is insanely cool. Thanks for sharing. I'll follow you on https://muppetlabs.com/ .

I'm learning how to train transformer models locally to do useful work instead of having to pay for claude. I regularly update my blog here https://seanneilan.com/posts

If it can be used for inference, who cares right? Just have claude vibe code some objective-C or run the Enclave app.

That's very funny. Bravo.

This is exactly what I needed. I've been thinking about making this tool. For running and experimenting with local models this is invaluable.

Does anyone have Jeff Dean's sources for how he computed these numbers? What's the margin of error? How accurate are they now? Is there a set of numbers that also talks about memor…

I'm a lot happier now being an anthropic customer.

Yes, this is probably the piece I am not realizing. However, there is no better approach to getting more capital than by scaring people?

Yes, the CEO's of these AI companies are clearly not the people who should be selling AI products. They need to be hidden away and kept behind closed doors where they can do their …

I don't understand why some of these AI companies check their egos at the door and hire public relations companies. Yes, I understand they are changing the world but customers do n…

Learned a lot about local models using them to scrape target.com.

I love it! I'm at level 6 and brave enough to try. I'm in. Giving this a shot!

This wins the internet today. Amazing work!!!

Hi, I got Qwen3:1.7b to execute it's own generated python code & then generate prompts to generate more python code recursively! In this case, it scrapes my website & then does it'…

Published an edit today (post dated in Nov. but I've rewritten it 5x now) on my tutorial to use llama3.2:3b to generate fine tuning data to train tinyllama1.1b https://seanneilan.c…
