  • And people are seriously considering federating with Threads if it implements ActivityPub. Things have been so crazy recently that I think If Satan existed and started a Lemmy instance, probably there would still be people arguing in good faith for federating with him.

  • Lol that’s like saying there’s too much porn on /r/gonewild

  • LLMs can do a surprisingly good job even if the text extracted from the PDF isn't in the right reading order.

    Another thing I've noticed is that figures are explained thoroughly most of the time in the text so there is no need for the model to see them in order to generate a good summary. Human communication is very redundant and we don't realize it.

  • If I remember correctly, the properties the API returns are comment_score and post_score.

  • Lemmy does have karma, it is stored in the DB, and the API returns it. It just isn’t displayed on the UI.

  • It only handles HTML currently, but I like your idea, thank you! I’ll look into implementing reading PDFs as well. One problem with scientific articles however is that they are often quite long, and they don’t fit into the model’s context. I would need to do recursive summarization, which would use much more tokens, and could become pretty expensive. (Of course, the same problem occurs if a web page is too long; I just truncate it currently which is a rather barbaric solution.)

    I’ve had nightmares less terrifying than this

  • @AutoTLDR

  • TIL. Thank you! (Now I will ssh into all my VPSes and set this up!)

    (cool username btw)

  • I think the incentives are a bit different here. If we can keep the threadiverse nonprofit, and contribute to the maintenance costs of the servers, it might stay a much friendlier place than Reddit.

    1. Only on programming.dev, at least in the beginning, but it will be open source so anyone will be able to host it for themselves.
    2. I set up a hard limit of 100 summaries per day to limit costs. This way it won’t go over $20/month. I hope I will be able to increase it later.
  • My favorite, the formalizer:

  • This describes 99% of AI startups.

    The company I work for was considering using Mendable for AI-powered documentation search. I built a prototype using OpenAI embeddings and GPT-3.5 that was just as good as their product in a day. They didn’t buy Mendable :)

  • They’re complaining that if there is a single word in an entire file that Copilot considers “bad”, it will not work at all in that file.

  • I implemented it. The feature will be available right from the start. The bot will reply this if the user has disabled it:

    🔒 The author of this post or comment has the #nobot hashtag in their profile. Out of respect for their privacy settings, I am unable to summarize their posts or comments.

  • This is an excellent idea, and I'm not sure why people downvoted you. The bot library I used doesn't support requesting the user profile, but I'm sure it can be fetched directly from the API. I will look into implementing it!

  • This is an excellent explanation of hashing, and the interactive animations make it very enjoyable and easy to follow.

  • While I appreciate the sentiment, it's easier said than done. Depression caused by ADHD is a real thing and I'm sure that's why so many members here can relate to this image.

  • @blightbow@kbin.social explains the paradox of tolerance

  • I'm glad you like it! /r/bestof was one of my favorite subreddits for a long time (then it went to shit). I hope we can build a high-quality community here.
