It probably won’t work either way: https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.13829
algoth1··on AMÁLIA and the future of European Portuguese LLMs
I’m a native Portuguese speaker, whom grow up watching morning Brazilian Portuguese cartoons. I would say it’s doable
algoth1··on Ask HN: Has Claude started encouraging you to take a break?
It was a conversation crossing raw IVG data against a symptom phenotype (dna analysis) which went on for a good while
algoth1··on Ask HN: Has Claude started encouraging you to take a break?
It has happened to me with very long conversations
algoth1··on AMÁLIA and the future of European Portuguese LLMs
Wouldnt it be easier to fine tune a model to convert the Brazilian Portuguese corpus into European Portuguese and then use that corpus?
algoth1··on Gemini API File Search is now multimodal
With a 10min delay, via aistudio
algoth1··on Accelerating Gemma 4: faster inference with multi-token prediction drafters
That’s basically the original gpt5 routing idea but done right
algoth1··on The USB Situation
This is actually really smart!
algoth1··on The USB Situation
Audio 6.5 mm is as close as humanity got to a perfect connector. Unfortunately downsizing it to 3.5 mm removes the robustness of the female as it tends to eventually break
algoth1··on Windows quality update: Progress we've made since March
We need a faster way to uninstall copilot and download chrome
algoth1··on Specsmaxxing – On overcoming AI psychosis, and why I write specs in YAML
So basically, talk with a rubber duck, but record the conversation
algoth1··on Opus 4.7 knows the real Kelsey
That issue is different, when web tools were added to gpt4o it would fetch the site, and basically copy paste the text into the answer body. So, you were able to read the content of the site without the site getting the ad impressions. Now the system prompts put a very tight word limit - 25? - on quotes from sites the model visits
algoth1··on He asked AI to count carbs 27000 times. It couldn't give the same answer twice
I’ll save you a click: ‘Llms can’t perform direct calorimetry through a photo of a meal. Llms can’t even perform basic atomic spectroscopy’ in other news…
algoth1··on Tim Cook Is Leaving. Good
Will we finally have a native way to ‘select all’ text in iPadOs?
algoth1··on What's Missing in the 'Agentic' Story
Open Office on Ubuntu 11.10 user here. I can confirm it froze frequently and you would lose everything. it was incredibly frustrating
algoth1··on What's Missing in the 'Agentic' Story
Manually editing config files thanks to an obscure thread so that your printer can actually be recognized by the OS
algoth1··on I cancelled Claude: Token issues, declining quality, and poor support
Doesn't "poor support" implies that there is some sort of support? Shouldnt it be "no support"
algoth1··on GPT-5.5
Same here
algoth1··on Our eighth generation TPUs: two chips for the agentic era
Aistudio should be their default app
algoth1··on Banned by Anthropic
You can file a report through HackerOne: https://hackerone.com/anthropic-vdp?type=team file it as a bug (which it is)
algoth1··on Claude Opus 4.7
On the leaked codebase they show 100+ messages that are randomly cycled through
algoth1··on Claude Opus 4.7
I suspect this is part of the reason why gemini 3.1 pro is insanely good on AiStudio and pretty bad on the gemini app. I have thousands of small videos to convert to detailed descriptions and I'm using a super detailed system prompt. It works perfect either via api or Aistudio. I tried doing a gem on the gemini app using the same prompt as the gem instructions and I just can't get the same results. So, the issue might be not just the rlhl but also the massive system prompts injected on the app interface
algoth1··on Fix monitor that goes black, off or blinks due to static electricity in chair
Many years ago I had a LG CRT that often would turn off in the exact moment I entered the bedroom. The monitor was configured to go to sleep after 20 or so minutes of inactivity, so it was supposed to turn off on its own. And I always assumed it was a case of only noticing it when it did happen (like when you buy a car and suddenly start seeing the same model everywhere)... But it always seemed uncannily frequent... Now I wonder if I might have somehow disturbed the electric field each time
algoth1··on Stanford report highlights growing disconnect between AI insiders and everyone
My wife has a very serious health issue, that has caused more suffering then words could describe. o1-preview was the first ai that actually proved useful. From there on, each improvement on ai caused an incremental improvement in her situation. Even recently we were able to pinpoint exactly what was causing her flare, and solve the situation the same day, just by prompting a claude opus conversation where i’ve shared all her health notes. But if i weren’t a data freak and haven’t been collecting data about her issues (what she does/takes and how she feels) for so long i dont think we would had been able to get this far. So i think ai appeals to people with problems that can be solved by finding patterns in data. People that say ai makes mistakes don’t understand that the power is in finding patterns, not in finding THE right answer. You need to prompt from that prespective
algoth1··on Categorization Is 'Baked' into the Brain
Autistic brains categorize when given enough examples
algoth1··on Pro Max 5x Quota Exhausted in 1.5 Hours Despite Moderate Usage
Wasn't Antrophic previously offering double the token usage outside busy hours? Now they are counting tokens back at normal rate. But yeah, it's not good. I use codex because claude insists in peaking at and messing with folders and file outside its work area though
algoth1··on Web Augmenter – Reshape any website with one sentence
I think a cool use would be as an harness for agents or automation workflows, to simplify the page/remove clutter to facilitate navigation. I.e. have the agent send commands to your tool
algoth1··on Show HN: I built a tiny LLM to demystify how language models work
I think you could probably feed a copy of a toki pona grammar book to a big model, and have it produce ‘infinite’ training data
