So did they deprecate the ability to use DALL-E 3 to generate images? I asked the legacy ChatGPT 4 model to generate an image and it used the new 4o style image generator.

> truly generative UI, where the model produces the next frame of the app I built this exact thing last month, demo: https://universal.oroborus.org (not viable on phone for this demo, fine on tablet or computer) Also see discussion and code at: http://github.com/snickell/universal I wasn't really planning to share/release it today, but, heck, why not. I started with bitmap-style generative image models, but because t…

I’m a bit late here - but I’m the COO of OpenRouter and would love to help out with some additional credits and share the project. It’s very cool and more people could be able to check it out. Send me a note. My email is cc at OpenRouter.ai

wow, that would be amazing, sending you an email.

I don't think the project would have gotten this far without openrouter (because: how else would you sanely test on 20+ models to be able to find the only one that actually worked?). Without openrouter, I think I would have given up and thought "this idea is too early for even a demo", but it was easy enough to keep trying models that I kept going until Claude 3.7 popped up.

Every iPhone is their best iPhone yet

Not wrong though

It kind of is, the iPhone 16e isn’t the best even though it’s the latest, right? Or are we rating best by price/performance, not pure performance (I don’t even know if the 16e would be best there)?

I hope this trend dies and apple starts using something effective so all the other companies can start copying a new lexicon.

Every step of gradient descent is the best model yet!

Not if you do gradient descent with momentum.

That scene is changing so quickly that you will want to try again right now if you can. While LLM code generation is very much still a mixed bag, it has been a significant accelerator in my own productivity, and for the most part all I am using is o1 (via the openAI website), deepseek, and jetbrains' AI service (Copilot clone). I'm eager to play with some of the other tooling available to VS Code users (such as cline…

I mean I literally "tried it again" this morning, as a paying Copilot customer of 12 months, to the result I already described. And I do not want to "try it" - based on fluffy promises we've been hearing, it should "just work". Are you old enough to remember that phrase? It was a motto introduced by an engineering legend whose devices you're likely using every day. The reason why "everyone", including myself with 20+…

None of this stuff even existed 3 years ago and you're asking like we're talking about self-driving cars.

What hubris. My god.

share prompt minus identifying details?

> Draw a birthday invitation for a 4 year old girl [name here]. It should be whimsical, look like its hand-drawn with little drawings on the sides of stuff like dinosaurs, flowers, hearts, cats. The background should be light and the foreground elements should be red, pink, orange and blue. Then I asked for some changes: > That's almost perfect! Retain this style and the elements, but adjust the text to read: > [refi…

just did the same type prompt for my sons birthday. I got all the classic errors. first attempt looked good, but had 2 duplicate lines for date and time and "Roarrr!" (dino theme) had a blurred out "a"

pointed these issues out to give it a second go and got something way worse. This still feels like little more than a fun toy.

Steve Jobs may be a legend at business, but an engineer he is not. To say nothing of the fact that whole reason "it just works" is because of said engineering. If you would like to be the innovator that finally solves that, then great! Otherwise you're just bloviating, and by god do we already have enough of that in this field.

I'm approaching 20 years of professional SWE experience myself. The boring shit is my bread and butter and its what pays the bills and then some. The business community trying to eliminate that should be seen as a very serious threat to all our futures.

AI is an extraordinary tool, if you can't make it work for you, you either suck at prompting, or are using the wrong tools, or are working in the wrong space. I've stated what I use, why not give those things a try?

I wish AI companies would release new things once a year, like at CES or how Apple does it. This constant stream of releases and announcements feels like it's just for attention.

Apple held three big keynotes in 2024 plus multiple product announcements via press releases:

May 7, 2024 - The “Let Loose” event, focusing on new iPads, including the iPad Pro with the M4 chip and the iPad Air with the M2 chip, along with the Apple Pencil Pro.

June 10, 2024 - The Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) keynote, where Apple introduced iOS 18, macOS Sequoia, and other software updates, including Apple Intelligence.

September 9, 2024 - The “It’s Glowtime” event, where Apple unveiled the iPhone 16 series, Apple Watch Series 10, and AirPods 4.

Via Press releases: MacBook Air with M3 on March 4, the iPad mini on October 15, and various M4-series Macs (MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac mini) in late October.

Thank you for the kind words and email received!
