Ran it through Claude, Grok, whatever...for me, they all flagged issues (no sources, punchy phrases with repetition,...) with these content farms. My favorite: couldn't even prove the author is a real person. They all found no record!
As someone said we live in a strange but amazing era, where although it has never been easier to be deceived, but its _also_ much easier to uncover said deception especially on the internet.
It's much faster and simpler to assume everything on the internet is crooked

I can't believe you'd impugn the high moral standards of "gizmoweek dot com".

Or at least think you've uncovered deception. It's not clear to me yet that any of these "AI detectors" are reliable, and if they are, it's just an arms race.

#107Unfortunately Apple appears to be blocking the use of these llms within apps on their app store. I've been trying to ship an app that contains local llms and have hit a brick wall with issue 2.5.2
Seriously, how do people put up with being nannied by Apple?
Come on folks, their IT hardware may be nice but supporting them is not worth it.

#108Offline or not, I'm sure Google uploads every keystroke, phone orientation, photo, WiFi endpoints and your shoe size when you interact with it. To enhance your experience.

#109I made this offline pocket vibe coder using Gemma 4 (works offline once model is downloaded) on an iPhone. It can technically run the 4B model but it will default to 2B because of memory constraints. https://github.com/blixt/pucky It writes a single TypeScript file (I tried multiple files but embedded Gemma 4 is just not smart enough) and compiles the code with oxc. You need to build it yourself in Xcode because this…

#110Is the output coherent though? I am yet to see a local model working on consumer grade hardware being actually useful.
I'm working on a visual description app for the blind. even Gemma 4 E2B can give very useful image descriptions while at the same time taking questions as audio. It's also much faster than most of the current popular cloud based apps like Be My Eyes.
