something that I'm curious, and may want to try is implementing "Dynamic" state flows for LLMs... I can see a process where it could create new states (teaching it), and then asking to evaluate which state to slide into, to then change the prompts for that state... I wonder... #ai #llm #learning

Hey blueskysphere. Has anyone worked with captnproto in java? Worth taking a look? Or is just in memory proto for c++?

So my weekend project (ok multiple weekends) was to create an email classifier that help me organize more than 100k emails on my inbox. It's open sourced, use LLM for email classification and runs in your computer (no need to ship emails outside to anyone). Give it a spin! github.com/windust/mail...

Really outstanding explanation of stream gatherers
Java 24 just introduced Stream Gatherers — custom intermediate operations for Java Streams.
I've written a blog post explaining what they are, why they matter, and how you can write your own.

let's crowdsource (maybe someone ran into this)... have a kotlin project running in WSL, when using gradle works fine... BUT if using maven, it breaks (by ways of not finding the JDK and for example saying can't find Superclass Object). @intellijidea.com uses gradle for build in Kotlin WSL,

gosh, this is fun (and a little scary).. keep working on my household assistant, and I just added the ability to make notes (ie. a tool to record things of importance you tell it)..so now I can say that I like latin food, or when my birthday is, and it'll write it down.

so the project for this winter break is to create an AI Agent that can help with the household (someone who can keep track of lists, remind you of things, summarize your emails... let's see how far we can push SpringAI, Ollama, OpenAI, and Speechify :D

maybe a question for #springai folks @michaelminella.com .. I noticed that Spring AI + Ollama + Tools works well if doing non-blocking (chat), but when switching to stream it hangs. I did check the tips on and do have ollama 0.51.. bug? (docs.spring.io/spring-ai/re...)
