jcmp··on Pi for Excel: AI sidebar add-in for Excel
Works surprisingly well, even the connection to local host to use my codex sub, would have not thoughts thats possible ;) Really cool work!
jcmp··on Pi for Excel: AI sidebar add-in for Excel
I just tried it, its very cool, so it can not just summarize data, but also create and format table, however it can not create charts yet. I asked to create me on and it created another table and told me what i need to do in the UI to create a chart based on it
jcmp··on Pi for Excel: AI sidebar add-in for Excel
you can try it in the web version, download the manifest file form his website. Than go in the webversion to add in -> my add ins -> upload and upload the manifest file. Only downside is that it will disappear after a week or so.

Just tried it, very cool! Do you have experience with limits, like is there a max table size it can reason about?
jcmp··on GPTZero finds 100 new hallucinations in NeurIPS 2025 accepted papers
at the end of the article they made a clear distinction between flawed and hallucinated cititations. I feels its hard to argue that through a mistake a hallucinated citation emerge:

> Real Citation Yann LeCun, Yoshua Bengio, and Geoffrey Hinton. Deep learning. nature, 521:436-444, 2015.

Flawed Citation

Y. LeCun, Y. Bengio, and Geoff Hinton. Deep leaning. nature, 521(7553):436-444, 2015.

Hallucinated Citation

Samuel LeCun Jackson. Deep learning. Science & Nature: 23-45, 2021.

jcmp··on Gemini 2.5 Pro vs. Claude 3.7 Sonnet: Coding Comparison
When my parent speak about AI, they call it Copilot. Mircosoft has a big Advantage that they can integrate AI in many daily used products, where it is not competing with their core product like Google
jcmp··on OpenAI Audio Models
How do you call this desing/ui astethic? I like it
jcmp··on Show HN: Wikimedia and LLM
good catch, actually increased to 1mb, I struggled at the beginning with the 20mb limit for inline data. But will look into the resized versions because i realized sometime is missed great images because of the limit. Thanks for the feedback!

jcmp··on Europe's most wanted man plotted my murder and that of my colleague
its crazy to me, how the author describes that they broke in his flat and stole an old laptop of a relative, like its an absolutly normal thing. He seems like he just accept its and moves on.
jcmp··on Meta claims torrenting pirated books isn't illegal without proof of seeding
I think they try to argue around the diffrence of sharing activly (=illegal) and downloading (=valid) with this argument it does not matter if you download one book or 1 million books
jcmp··on Meta claims torrenting pirated books isn't illegal without proof of seeding

jcmp··on Paris to Berlin by train is now faster by five hours
The price really depends how much in advance you are booking, DB price are outrages on the same day but unbelivable cheap three weeks before, i really dont get the business logic behind that, the spread is like 19.99 to 240
jcmp··on Paris to Berlin by train is now faster by five hours
Its cool that there is another train connections, saving time and has no need to switch trains! Also kind a funny to see in the comments that a lot of people counter the good news with some kind of bad takes about the german rail way. Just be happy about the new connection :)

jcmp··on Show HN: LinkedIn Hype Crew
Once thought about doing the same and I can already tell you it takes 3 days of research to accept that theres not better alternative than the pdf resume to get the linkedIn data for a profile. I am sure they tried various ways before ;)
jcmp··on Show HN: ChartAI - Edit Charts from Screenshots –> Built with Gemini Flash
I like the idea and know a lot of people who would profit from something like that, however for me sadly it only works for really basic charts. And scaling is not consitent. E.g the scale in the pic goes from 500 to 530 and the ai scales it from 0 to 600 where you cant see anything anymore. The good thing is AIs are getting better and better any may tomorrow the problem is solved.

+ Do you hand the pic right to Gemini Flash or do you have middle steps to extract the scales and so on?
