Silicon Valley has forgotten what normal people want
The long-term risks of the All-In Podcast, illustrated. | Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge, Turbosquid, Getty Images One of the most mortifying things about knowing a lot of techies is listening to them tell me excitedly about some very important discovery that they believe they have made. Recently, I ran into an acquaintance of mine, who began talking my ear off about an amazing discovery he'd made with LLMs. Knowledge, it turns out, is structured into language! You could put one word into ChatGPT and it might understand what you wanted, or make up a word and see if it understood what you meant! These amazing new tools have revealed that the English corpus contains so much about its speakers! He concluded that LLMs are a discovery on par with writing. … Read the full story at The Verge.
built my first AI agent yesterday
So I've been putting this off for months because every tutorial made it sound like you need a PhD and a startup budget to even begin. Turns out that's bullshit. Started yesterday at 2pm with literally just OpenAI's API and a Python script. No frameworks, no fancy vector databases, just me trying to make something that could answer questions about my company's support docs. First attempt was embarrassing. The thing would confidently tell customers we sold motorcycles (we don't, we make accounting software). But I kept going. By 9pm I had something that actually worked. Like, genuinely helpful responses that pulled the right info from our knowledge base. The secret wasn't some complex architecture, it was just understanding the basic flow. You feed the user question to a search function that finds relevant docs. Those docs get stuffed into a prompt with the original question. Send it all to GPT. Done. Obviously this is the kiddie pool version and I'm already hitting walls (the thin
New Local LLM Rig: Ryzen 9700X + Radeon R9700. Getting ~120 tok/s! What models fit best?
Hi ! I just finished building a workstation specifically for local inference and wanted to get your thoughts on my setup and model recommendations. •GPU: AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700 (32GB GDDR6 VRAM) •CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9700X •RAM: 64GB DDR5 •OS: Fedora Workstation •Software: LM Studio (Vulkan backend), wanna test LLAMA •Performance: Currently hitting a steady ~120 tok/s on simple prompts. (qwen3.6-35b-a3b) What is the largest model architecture you recommend running comfortably? Should I be focusing on Q4_K_M quantizations ? submitted by /u/jsorres [link] [comments]
