Ah, forgot about that. I was questioning if I should switch my big subscription to ChatGPT (was on the 20$ Open AI and 100$ Claude), seems like a no brainer now

This article answered a lot of questions I had about the direction Mistral is taking. Great read, probably really smart positioning from Mistral but I can't help but be disappointed by the lack of ambition and innovation. This looks li

Musk burned billions in brand value by renaming Twitter, and he'll be doing the same with Cursor. The Cursor brand was the only wedge he had with enterprise customers, who seem to avoid Grok products altogether

Haha sorry about that. I made the changes quickly since a lot of people were reading, and I wanted people to focus on the content

Standard translation services lack the understanding of LLMs and LLMs are hilariously prone to these AI tells, even when you ask to avoid them. I try to learn writing and copywriting directly in english to avoid the awkward translation effe

Thanks for the feedback. I wonder which system they use, WCAG is notoriously limited so I often use APCA and both cleared this combo

But human eyeballs can vary wildly, hence the need for tools. I'm the kind of person who uses the sepia mode for reading, so I didn't expect such strong discomfort from readers. This feedback surfaced a lot here, so it was a blind

Possibly.. I admit I'm quite bad with distribution, hence why I usually work with a few clients long-term. But we do see a sharp rise in the release of apps, without the same tendency in use. [1] I do think there will be a place for SA

Fable helped me edit since I'm not a native English speaker, so I might not catch these subtleties. Thought and structure are my own

Definitely. I wonder if this will be an increasing factor when choosing vendors. Will the security risk drive companies away from small software, due to their use of AI? Will we see a bundling of features in big established vendors? Will th

Yeah my bad, this is a fun effect for the landing, didn't think much of it when publishing the first article, fixing now, thanks for feedback!

A few months ago, I had some data cleaning to do; their small model was surprisingly efficient and got the job done for 0.2x what I expected to run (Anthropic Sonnet / Haiku). Their TTS / STT is also roughly at the frontier, at le

Yes, that's the real strenght of it. The structure is dead simple so you just have to switch the goal metric. I used it on a data science project to find the best rules for achieving a defined outcome. At first, for fun, then I actuall

I used Ministral for data cleaning. I was surprised: even tho it was the cheapest option (against other small models from Anthropic) it performed the best in my benchmarks.

A lot of comments reads like a knee jerk reaction to the Twitter crowd claiming they vibe code apps making 1m$ in 2 weeks. As a designer I'm having a lot of success vibe coding small use cases, like an alternative to lovable to prototy

Made to Stick by Chip & Dan Heath, and Influence by Cialdini are classics for a reason. Influence in particular made it shockingly clear how our environment shapes not only our decision process, but our personality.

The Goal was such a fun read, the solution is always evident in hindsight but I found myself having small "aha" moments over and over.
