Meta really knows how to lose its users as fast as possible. What’s up with unskippable ads on instagram? I mean, thanks for reminding me I’m doomscrolling, I’ll close the app now

Everyone talking about pre-training and post-training, but who’s doing the actual training ?

With all the smart glasses hyping “AI” on your face I wonder if Apple is going to do some exclusive AI thing for the AirPods Pro 3 to compete

Been iterating a piece of code for a while with cursor but I can’t seem to get it to work, and now I fear I have to dive in and understand the code to fix it , yuk

I’m amazed at the capability of French people to ask whether anyone does not speak French, _in French_

Multiple times I’ve now found myself rejecting Cursor diffs only to come back later realizing the model was actually correct

Is there a German word for the fear of running out of Cursor premium requests?

The turn taking paradigm of LLMs is kind of limiting for real world interactions. A voice/chat system should be able to hear other sounds _while_ speaking itself and decide whether to stop or continue. Is there any research on this asynchronous/parallel processing ?

Ordered my Home Assistant Voice Preview and am very excited about it. Gonna try to build the permanent, local, always listening device and see what happens

Is there some law that says whatever you want to buy as a present, the delivery date will always be after the birthday?

Got an idea 4 weeks in advance now and it’s a little over 4 weeks delivery time… feel like this happens every time

A big improvement to UX for voice assistants like Siri IMO would be to have the flexibility to have the wake word work *after* your query.

I think big tech is just too scared of the always listening privacy issues with that, but you should be able to do this with local transcription
