It’s a partial driver, perhaps even meaningful in some way, but this is hardly an A/B test. Suffice to say lack of CarPlay is costing them in some way but model refreshes, steep price discounts, and other economical considerations are

I enjoy all the fun of these new models as much as the next guy but I truly don’t see a circumstance in the near future where my $200 a month with the frontier labs doesn’t get me more than enough consumption of what I need. Local models, c

what trade off would one need to clear to justify the hardware and the work to get this running locally as part of a broader system? It’s a lot of work setting up and maintaining a production harness/system on a local device. I don’t p

I’m super envious. I can’t seem to do anything without a half a million tokens. I had to create a slash command that I run at the start of every session so the darn thing actually reads its own memory- whatever default is just doesn’t seem

Sorry, the point? isn’t the point of art pretty much what a person wants it to be?

I have really struggled to get nano banana to follow size/proportion ratios for sprite art. any tips? I fed in a bunch of examples first and tried to write a really strict prompt. I wonder if any of the sw being discussed here can be p

entirely possible I’m just really bad at this stuff but I can’t get browser agents to do simple report pulls without running into a captcha or a dropdown menu that breaks its brain. hopefully this is the one!

I had to threaten to sue them by opting out of their time triggered arbitration clause to get them to give me the deposit back on a car they couldn’t/wouldn't deliver. Carvana sucks.

How much of a hit would you take on quality if you moved the processing local? have you experimented with it? don’t think llamaindex has local sadly

I should add that sometimes LM Studio just feels better for the use case, same model same purpose seemingly different output usually when involving RAG, but Anything is definitely a very intuitive visual experience

Not that he’s necessarily wrong but got a chuckle out of the wide ranges of token estimates for various tasks being attributed to “a variety of sources”.

I desperately wanted Qwen vl to work but it just unleashes rambling hallucinations off basic screencaps. going to try nanonet!

What are you aiming to do with these models that isn’t chat/text manipulation?

one of my day to day responsibilities involves using a portal tied to MSFT dynamics on the back end and it is the laggiest and most terrible experience ever. we used to have java apps that ran locally and then moved to this in the name of c
