News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

geniium

That is hard to answer.

But the speed and acceleration has the biggest impact on humanity

And it becomes determinist - which is a huge bonus
Very impressive demo!

It starts to be so good that the model doesn't really matter. Each model starts to have its own personality, and it's the personality of the drawing, like a real artist, that defines the style of the pelican, and that makes it harder and harder to decide if it's good or bad.

I wish you were true - but I still meet a lot of people handling sensitive data and using free or cheap version of ChatGPT or Claude with their customer data.

I think we will see some horror stories come out with data leak in the next years.

I was using ChatGPT voice during cooking to reflect on variations of a dishes i was preparing for years.

It was so amazing to get advices and reflect that it struck me : I could use this model forever - it’s clever enough to help me tons and do lot of work for me - even if ai would stop evolving I would love it

I think the model got trained only on pelican to get there

It's really amazing to see how the gaps between the self hostable models and the closed models has been shrinking in the last 24 months.

And how this has been accelerating!!

I felt this very hard when I had to travel in the middle of nowhere in south america, with no network, and wanted to keep an LLM model on my macbook pro with 48GB of RAM. That was back in April 2026, a few months ago.

I downloaded Google Gemma 4 (google/gemma-4-26b-a4b) and - Oh boy - I was amazed by it's capacity!

I was able to use it to code simple things, ask it about nature, learn new stuff while traveling and make stories for the kids.

Was really amazing to observe and experiment this!

Seems to me there will be some good chance to run these great LLM locally on our hardware!

Amazing time to be alive

Thanks for making me smile

I love that quote and like to share it often with people around me

Yet it pushes the goal of the brand/shop forward: make the product more appealing and sell

> Chinese labs only have 5-10% the valuation of OpenAI/Anthropic, so massive monopoly profits aren't necessary. Profit expectations for tech companies in China are really low in general, complete opposite of the US.

It’s really amazing to see that the competition is creating better quality models for everyone - and am really happy that some of these are open source (or partially os).

Regarding the valuation, that maybe points a finger to the over valuation of the US companies ?

Interesting times to be alive.

What is very surprising for me is the height of the books. If you look closer at the picture, seems that most of the books are the same height, so that's very strange for any book collection except if he was collecting the same book editors or... Am missing something ?

Re:Testing Ads in ChatGPT on Monday February 09, 2026 @03:50PM (#46951072)
This is interesting. On one side, I hate ads everywhere. On the other side, I was always very appreciative of the work of some people like Benetton or some creative ads. I remember watching here in Europe, there is a show that was called Culture Pub every Sunday night that was showing the best ads, and I always enjoyed watching it. That part is probably the best part. The creativity

Just wanted to mention the ads from Claude here :)

That doesn't look good. I'm very surprised that a brand like them release such a cheap-ass version.
