This idea seems to come and go all over the world. It reminds me of the "Científicos" [1] in Mexico during the Porfirio Díaz dictatorship (early 1900s). [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cient%C3%ADfico

I've been writing my own "task runner" which seems to have some of the same features. I'd say some pros: A nice view of that has run (what has failed, etc.) - which otherwise could be drowned-out by stderr and stdout.

Ideally, you'd be able to specify exactly what you want - do you want to write-out filled pauses ("aaah", "umm")? Do you want to get a transcription of the the disfluencies - re-starts, etc. or just get out a clean

Generally legal assisted suicide doesn't mean "the government helps you commit suicide" - it means it's not illegal for a doctor assisting a patient to commit suicide.

A couple things I noticed opening one random page ( https://github.com/EnriqueLop/legalize-es/blob/master/spain/... ) It left out the tables (e.g. under 2.1 Materiales.) and the images (e.g see the ve

Amazon has giant warehouses all over the country to deliver things to people quickly, sometimes within a couple of hours. What is an LLM going to do about that?

With the popularity of mac mini (and macbooks for that matter) for doing ML/AI work, I would have thought Apple could make a Mac Pro that could make for a good workstation for doing in-house ML/AI stuff. I bought a GPU maybe a dec

First one I clicked on was Reserva Cerro Ancón in Panama City ( https://www.niche-museums.com/72 ) Cool place, but hard to see how it's classified as a museum (park, trail, nature reserve).

Yes, they are master hackers - they even hacked the scrollbar on their web page.

I think image segmentation is in the same class as LLMs - ML experiments. What about more distant software projects? Give it the CPython source code and say you want it to be faster.

It’s a small sample and not specifically ones we’re working on. It’s biased towards alternative scripts for visual interest. Australian languages are definitely interesting! and I will say, from what I’ve seen, Australian government (and ot

In hindsight, it is obvious, but I couldn't make out what that synthesized voice was trying to say... She spells-out "approximately".

"... and likely the best performance/$". "likely" doesn't inspire much confidence. Surely, they have those numbers, and if it was, they'd publicize the comparisons.

Yes, there are government datasets, languge "acadamies" (or "regulators") - organizations focused on preserving / teaching the language, and often smaller, local publishers that publish material in their local langu

I haven't seen anywhere claiming they are open weight (although their last similar model, NLLB was). They say their leaderboard and evaluation datasets are freely available. Closest statement I've seen in the paper, "Our tran

I'll be looking at this in detail. I've started a company to do similar things, https://6k.ai I'm currently concentrating on better data gathering for low-resource languages. When you look in detail at data like C

So, LLMs are noticeably better in Khmer than Google Translate? I wonder why Google Translate doesn't use Gemini under-the-hood. Perhaps it's more prone to hallucinations. I'm interested in find some thorough testing of transl

Every vibe coded site is too dark and the text is too small.

There's a number of recent, good quality, small TTS models. If the author doesn't describe some detail about the data, training, or a novel architecture, etc, I only assume they just took another one, do a little finetuning, and r

You should put examples comparing the 4 models you released - same text spoken by each.

If you don't limit code size, you could just put weights in there.
