Gemini is notoriously bad at tool calling and it's also widely speculated that 3.0 will put an emphasis on fixing that.

This is dumb. Llms are a tool, a very useful one. Bad PRs should be rejected always no matter the source, but banning a tool because some people can't use it is not what engineering is about.

speaking to a child at their level is the best way to keep them from speaking well. I never did it with my son and it didn't hold him back one bit. Everyone remarks his incredible vocabulary and language skills for his age. IMHO holdin

In an immersion context I can get to conversational fluency in about 3 months and to complete mastery in a year. I've done it twice, once for Spanish and once for English. A few things in my approach helped me move quite a lot faster t

new models are always magical, let's see how it feels after the cost cutting measures get implemented in 2-3 months.

your pricing is nuts. let me know if revenue are good, I'll copy you.

does this approach actually work? is it more reliable than plain mcp calls?

I downloaded the app and it failed at the first screen when I set up the models. I agree with the spirit of the blog post but the execution seems lacking.

yeah but it's hard for others to know what you're up to, you force everyone else to do investigations and waste time. Just open a ticket and be a good team mate.

have you ever witnessed how sometimes Gemini makes multiple attempts at writing a file only to give up and start chanting "I'm worthless...". That's tool use failure :)

Gemini is great, it's just incredibly clumsy at tool use and that's why it fails so often in practice. I'm looking forward to the next version, it will for sure address it, it's a big issue internally too (I'm a rec

I put together a small harness to keep AI-assisted coding under control. It’s basically a set of git hooks and scripts that enforce simple things AIs tend to skip—running tests, checking basic metrics, that sort of guardrail. I think it’s u

This is a fundamental misunderstanding of how LLMs work.

Local models can do embedding very well, which is useful for things like building a screenshot manager for example.

Do you have some kind of tooling to automate the process? Would like to try it.
141.
by luckydata 1y ago
I'm over simplifying here but graph database and knowledge graphs exist. An LLM doesn't need to preserve everything in context, just what it needs for that conversation.

by luckydata 1y ago
Because that's not the job it was designed to do, and you would know by reading the article.

The article says it's not a good conversational model but can be used for data extraction and classification as two examples.

is there some sort of utility to automatically backup and retrieve dotfiles from github to keep different computers synchronized?

The crowd you see is because options are dwindling faster than people willing to use them.

As an immigrant to the USA teaching in this country is a mess. Teachers apply a lot of semi scientific mumbo jumbo to justify a completely inadequate amount of work required from students to learn. I know it's not popular to say it but
