It just depends on what you are doing. A green field react app in typescript with a CRUD API behind? The LLMs are a mind blowing assistant and 1000t/s is crazy. You are doing embedded development or anything else not as mainstream as w

I usually use unsloth quants, in this case https://huggingface.co/unsloth/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct-... - the Q4_K_M variant. On 128GB I would definitely run a larger model, probably with ~10B active parameters. All

On a Macbook pro 64GB I use Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B Q4 quant with llama.cpp. For VSCode I use continue.dev as it allows to set my own (short) system prompt. I get around 50token/sec generation and prompt processing 550t/s. When giving

Interesting project but I wonder if this is mostly academic. Wheatstone bridges are very sensitive to tampering. While the reflectometry is pretty cool I wonder if for practical purposes the extra sensitivity is needed for physical intrusio

Thinking about it, I am sure it is only a matter of time until a self driving car or a robot will be used to kill a human. Or on a lower level for a DDoS attack - all cars/robots going to the white house.

Probably they were next to sports stadiums. Most of the time there is ample unused cell capacity. Also: the New York marathon hosts 50k+ runners. I don't easily believe that 100k phones distributed over several sites on a 35 mile radiu

Exactly this. And that is why I like this question because the amount of correct details and the amount of nonsense give a good idea about the quality of the model.

The 120B model badly hallucinates facts on the level of a 0.6B model. My go to test for checking hallucinations is 'Tell me about Mercantour park' (a national park in south eastern France). Easily half of the facts are invented. N

Looking in their github, it says that it uses openCV and Tensorflow. The motion detection is done with openCV and will be immune against any attack unless you move so slow that you are under the detection threshold. Tensorflow for the objec

I am really afraid of this as well. When using one of the plugins for vscode, I would easily use a few million tokens a day. Thus with Claude Code I assume it isn't much different under the hood. The prices on openrouter are roughly $5

Minor correction, BERT is an encoder (not encoder-decoder), ChatGPT is a decoder. Encoders like BERT produce better results for embeddings because they look at the whole sentence, while GPTs look from left to right: Imagine you're tryi

Well, openrouter lists currently 473 models of dozens of providers. Three providers and 26 models is 2 minutes of Google search. I stand by my word to call that low effort.

Actually Le Chat is french for the (male) cat. Also 'Le Chat' is a well known laundry detergent (of german origin - Henkel company). The headline 'Le Chat takes a deep dive' means 'the cat takes a deep dive'.
