This is an ad for ZenDB. EDIT: Having reread the paper in full I don't hold this view anymore. Leaving up for reply posterity.

I've got a couple I've done and it's been really enjoyable. I think the real value in using local models is exposing them to personal/unique information that only you have, thus getting novel and unique outcomes that no

Right, but that's not an OS, that's a software application run by the OS like Microsoft's UFO[0]. The ability to "teach" the LLM by converting your teachings to those skills is very clever though. 0. https:/&#

That's correct. I would even add that this will give rise to the need for a standardized Agentic focused interface (called it "Agent Programming Interface" for confusions sake) that will be massively necessary sooner than lat

I think this is a great primer on how to make LLMs enterprise/domain specific, but is still couching this technology's main use-case in the context of "question-answer" machine toward the service of a user. While this ma

Beyond even that he takes a non-unique urban trait of Montreal and titles it a problem without ever explaining why it's a problem for Montreal, much less how Montreal did or did not solve for it in any way that is analogous to his St

I think that's a play-style preference, and honestly one I share almost completely; I very much enjoy PvE over PvP experiences 9 times out of 10. But again, that's where LLMs can thrive! Currently if I want to play anything co-ope

Skill or mastery is not what LLMs offer in-game AI though, it's creativity, originality, and agency. Players don't primarily prefer to play against other human players because they're an "easier" opponent, but rathe
