A little update on how Audacity 4 is progressing. We've just about completed all the core editing work now and I wanted to demonstrate some of the workflow improvements we've included. Let me know if you'd like more little updates like this.

Much ado about the role of renewable energy (RE) in the Spanish blackout. The investigation into the effective cause is still ongoing, but many pointed to the fact that RE has no ‘inertia’. Is that true? The answer is: yes, but ... 🧵

Países con más porcentaje de renovables que España en la Red eléctrica: España: 56% Alemania: 60% Dinamarca: 81% Austria: 87% Suecia: 87% Noruega: 96% Uruguay: 98% Apagones generales: CERO A los oportunistas anti-renovables que aprovechan el río revuelto para difundir bulos se les frena con DATOS.

Can a Large Language Model (LLM) with zero Pokémon-specific training achieve expert-level performance in competitive Pokémon battles? Introducing PokéChamp, our minimax LLM agent that reaches top 30%-10% human-level Elo on Pokémon Showdown! New paper on arXiv and code on github!

Today, we’re launching new algorithms that enable 10x longer context lengths & 90% less VRAM for training Reasoning Models (GRPO). Using Unsloth, you can now train your own reasoning model with just 5GB VRAM for Qwen2.5-1.5B with no accuracy loss. Blog: unsloth.ai/blog/grpo

If you’ve not heard of these, they’re extremely cool tech! evanw.github.io/thumbhash/ blurha.sh

Ever heard of ThumbHash? It's a great way to encode a blurry placeholder image into just a few bytes, 28 here. Like BlurHash but better visual quality! Available now in responsive-image.dev for @vite.dev or webpack plugins and image components for @emberjs.com @lit.dev @solidjs.com and @svelte.dev!

@www.error500.net y si lanzas 3, 5, 10 Deep Researchs y luego lo pasas por un LLM evaluador? No subirias la fiabilidad? Aún no estamos ahí computacionalmente o en precio, pero solo es un horizonte muy cercano y seguro que hay clientes VIP que tienen eso

I couldn't find any good games for my password manager. So I made one. 1Crossword connects to your 1Password vault and generates a crossword entirely out of your passwords! The crosswords are fun, simple, and great for sharing on social media when you finish. Enjoy!

It's alive! Input layer at the top, output layer at the bottom. Connection colour represents positive (green) or negative (orange) weight, thickness and opacity represents how large that weight is. Really neat to see the training process strengthening specific connections in the network.

General consensus in the replies and quotes of this seems to be that the entire concept of "AI skills" is a joke - how hard is typing text into a chatbot, really? I will continue to argue that it's genuinely difficult, and that the challenge in using these tools is widely underestimated

I can now run a GPT-4 class model on my laptop (The exact same laptop that could just about run a GPT-3 class model 20 months ago) The new Llama 3.3 70B is a striking example of the huge efficiency gains we've seen in the last two years simonwillison.net/2024/Dec/9/l...

Lesson 1: Anticipate the “out of scope” Lesson 2: Organize intents into a hierarchy Lesson 3: Expect unusual expressions Lesson 4: Remove: “Sorry, I don’t know”

This demo of structured data extraction running on an LLM that executes entirely in the browser (Chrome only for the moment since it uses WebGPU) is amazing My notes here: simonwillison.net/2024/Nov/29/...

To showcase how much you can do with just a 1.7B LLM, you pass free text, define a schema of parsing the text into a GitHub issue (title, description, categories, tags, etc) - Let MLC & XGrammar do the rest! That's it, the code is super readable, try it out today! 🤗 huggingface.co/spaces/reach...
