I'm a technical co-founder rapidly building a software product. I've been coding since 2006. We have every incentive to have AI just build our product. But it can't. I keep trying to get it to...but it can't. Oh, it trie

I have found AI generated code to be overly verbose and complex. It usually generates 100 lines and I take a few of them and adapt them to what I want. The best cases I've found for using it are asking specific technical questions, hel

Is there a performance benefit for inference speed on M-series MacBooks, or is the primary task here simply to get inference working on other platforms (like iOS)? If there is a performance benefit, it would be great to see tokens/s of
