I remember early on AI Dungeon tried to be uncapped. The cost of a few power users was being redistributed to other users and then they decided to ditch the unlimited use plan.

gpt-4o-mini and gemini flash are quite cheap, almost to the point that you can sustain them with ads. There's a lot of optimizations you can do too. Many seem to forget about options like procedural generation or things like fuzzy logi

Langchain was the OG for PDF RAG. You don't need fine tuning or anything, it does embedding based search right out of the box.

In my experience, Gemini Flash has been the best at writing, and GPT 3.5 onwards has been terrible. GPT-3 and GPT-2 were actually remarkably good at it, arguably better than a skilled human. I had a bit of fun ghostwriting with these and go

For comparison, 3 years ago, the most powerful model out there (GPT-3 davinci) was $60/MTok.

I'm not working for Musk, but the way I see it, he's funding a lot of research that someone couldn't get access to if they worked with say, BMW or NASA. So it makes sense that someone could be there to just learn and fail on

Similar to how calculators changed `sin(pi/2)`. For some, they never have to learn. For others, it makes everything click. Maybe they didn't have a good teacher or book. But now they can experiment and play around with different v

I actually loved Fall From Heaven II[0] as a Civ mod because of the latter civ style handling of archers and such. Somehow Civ 5 onwards utilized that style, but didn't really bring over all the tactical complexity of FFH2. Sadly there

I've been a big fan of Humankind and haven't played Civ since I got it.

I would pay for it as an individual. Just things like going into code and spending 3 weeks reverse engineering everything is not ideal. Especially if it's something where the entire team has quit or been laid off. And lately the soluti

I'm making AI more fun to talk with. The new updates just keep making it blander and blander. What I want to do is inject more personality into bots. It's not natural, it's dramatized. Quillbot makes it sound better for essay

I made a diet recipe app with thousands of users and sold weight loss products (stevia not ozempic lol). I had a chat with another company. I don't recall the exact details, but basically they'd buy $10 of FB ads to sell $30 of we

Yup, economics. Dude in the first video got a car for 3 months of work but he has no interest in continuing work on it now that he won. Dude in the second video is trying to turn it into a startup, because he didn't get rewarded. He bu

Stack Overflow/Stack Exchange used to be such a good site for this - I'd just ask the simplest kind of question on how to do it and then answer it myself a few days later. It was great because SO would show up on a search; it rank

Yeah, even if it hits, chances are it'll end up in the ocean, and the predicted area of impact isn't anywhere near my home. I still think the odds of something more destructive happening is higher - earthquake-tsunamis, hurricanes

DuckDuckGo. Very performant, maybe because of the tracker blocking.

After a decade or so of experience, execution has become a lot easier, and it's good ideas that are rare.

VCs can only back ideas that are worth over a billion dollars. Everything below a billion dollars is small. This creates two different types of companies. With VC-backed you'll have an abundance of cash, because that cash is buying you

I still want a better todo list. It's daily. Probably pulls stuff from a backlog. Maybe with deadlines, item 1 by 10 AM, (2) by 10.30 AM, (3) by 2 PM. Alternatively, it rolls a dice and tells me what to do next so there's no paral

I think plenty do. I'm a startup guy and corporates have been asking when I want to coast for a while. Personally, I'd rather work hard writing code than writing performance reviews and such.

Especially in Asia, where it's not exactly a primary language for anyone. It's funny that you'll be in a room with Chinese, Egyptians, Pakistanis, Indonesians, Ukranians, and everyone will speak English. I once saw a document

Some people here have an apostrophe. Names like Ainul can be 'Ainul. And I guess the Bobby Tables equivalent is Ai'null. It's due to arabic sources, where A and A' are different letters like o and ö. I used to do some co

I do the whole random charity thing but I need the feedback loop. Like I would give a game to a homeless dude on reddit saying they were homeless but just want a game on their phone that they can't afford. Because it's a trivial t

LLM latency has also gone down 10-100x in the last 5 years. Back then, you could only give it a few sentences, now it's like $10 for 10 novels worth of text.

SE Asia has weaker solar than many similar regions, possibly because of all the rain. [0] Most of the renewables come from hydro and biomass/biodiesel (lots of plantations too). Malaysia is still about 50% powered by natural gas, but i

Back when BN ruled, the government blocked Medium (which was reporting the 1MDB case), proposed "fake news" laws to silence people on social media. Govt parties owned majority share in all newspapers. They erased images from newsp
