>Psychologist Sarita Robinson at the University of Central Lancashire, UK, says that hallucinations are common when people are in isolation, usually occurring if there is also sensory deprivation, such as being in a dark room.
Does the AI model hallucinations somewhat linked to this, does computer AI model too need some sort of socializing?

I think it won't preserve the index but it will recreate the index while running the text sql.

Congratulations, you built and deployed that, you could register a proper domain name, pillu.ai is available. Also `anyone who works with their brain` in tag line sounds like a bit in harsh tone or like sarcasm you could change that. Just my input.

After reading the article I was wondering is AI generated images Art! We showed them millions of images and it's reinterpreting those, in a way it's Art.

Oh I had some really good times with ohm editor, when I was evaluating ohm, although I could not use ohm for the project but I do miss such editor/visualization for any parser toolkit.

How about people just write the spec and AI give us the code on that, that would be mind blowing.

Is that screen changing swipe due to slow machine Or is it an animation? Looks bad UI/UX if it's animation, the calculator doesn't look snappy due to it.
Building such a hardware must be the most difficult feat, although an app on mobile would work with the same use case but there is no beating a calculator for the speed and shop keepers being very proficient at it. A calculator that does the ledger sounds good. Best of luck.

I used a paid app for calculations with annotations and felt I needed something greater than that so I built one for myself.

Nice,
Something like this would have been so usefull, I was building a diy projector, and could not find a projector lense in budget, but I found somewhere that I could use two prescription lense to build a projector lense, the distance between those two lense the distance from screen was all trial and error, all I could project was a dim image of cellphone on the ceiling. But looking at this project sent me back to my diy tinkering days.

Does it really need a tutorial video? I've made an `Introduction` document that opens on first use ,which is self explanatory.

It's binary you could `chmod +x qwiktape` and execute it, I've made note in the readme about it.

My initial thoughts were how does a spreadsheet do it? but it's a different kind of beast.
In search of a parser toolkit I had come across this https://github.com/handsontable/hyperformula which uses chevrotain to parse spreadsheet formulas and decided to use chevrotain for the parsing.

Well few of the surprises in sciter SDK were solved by the author of Sciter Andrew,
Sciter development is mostly development-on-demand, so any bugs or feature gets resolved on interest. I've not faced any major issue with it.
