As opposed to the discussion 2 days ago with 400+ comments: Ingesting PDFs and why Gemini 2.0 changes everything https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42952605

  FTA: > This week, there was a viral blog about Gemini 2.0 being used for complex PDF parsing, leading many to the same hypothesis we had nearly a year ago at this point. Data ingestion is a multistep pipeline, and maintaining confidence from these nondeterministic outputs over millions of pages is a problem.

    Yes and per the poster's opening comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42966958#42966959 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42966958#42966959

      It seemed you were implying the article was naive to the earlier post, whereas the OP poses itself as a rebuttal. Perhaps a fault of my inference.

  That's what I thought too, but apparently the title is pure, absolute, rage-inducing clickbait. The actual conclusion is that they make classes of errors that traditional OCR programs either don't make, or make in different ways.

    I assume you mean the title of the current thread? I've attempted to make it less baity now.

      Indeed, the new title is far better. Thanks!
