• "Ein dog run dans le park, et son owner rennt après."
• "Un dog läuft in le parc, son master run après."
• "Ein doggy cour dans le parc, und der owner läuft nach ihm."

The silly language used in the 'Poland ball' memes got me wondering if that language was actually easier to understand for users of multiple languages. So I tried to get chatGPT to unite multiple languages (I tried Le Chat first but it wasn't as good).

My prompt:

Rewrite this phrase so that it is most understandable to people that only speak English, other people that only speak french, and a third group that only speaks German. You may use words from any language and you may misspell words if the word you use, although being mispelled, is more easily understood by speakers of both languages. You may not use slashes to separate two words for the same thing. You may change the phrase's structure as long as the meaning is the same. The phrase is: There is a dog running in the park. The owner is running after it

I've used deep research on Gemini 2 and the results were absolutely incredible. To the point that I was shocked. There was no hallucination, no mistake and did what would take me 4 days of research and did it in under 2 mins. (I'm not saying it can't or won't make mistakes or hallucinations at other times for people, but this was clearly so much better than anything else I'd tried). And this wasn't even the best model. Its Gemini 2. Ive heard chat gpt has a research feature that is much better, although i haven't tried that. And according to industry folk, gpt 5 is another massive leap forward.

If you havent tried the deep research feature, you absolutely must.

A Microsoft employee disrupted the company’s 50th anniversary event to protest its use of AI.

“Shame on you,” said Microsoft employee Ibtihal Aboussad, speaking directly to Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman. “You are a war profiteer. Stop using AI for genocide. Stop using AI for genocide in our region. You have blood on your hands. All of Microsoft has blood on its hands. How dare you all celebrate when Microsoft is killing children. Shame on you all.”

Sources at Microsoft tell The Verge that shortly after Aboussad was ushered out of Microsoft’s event, she sent an email to a number of email distribution lists that contain hundreds or thousands of Microsoft employees. Here is Aboussad’s email in full

Israel’s use of artificial intelligence (AI) in its ongoing assault on the Gaza Strip – aided by tech giants such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon – is fueling concerns over the normalization of mass civilian casualties and raising serious questions about the complicity of these firms in potential war crimes, according to a leading AI expert.

Multiple reports have confirmed that Israel has deployed AI models such as Lavender, Gospel, and Where’s Daddy? to conduct mass surveillance, identify targets, and direct strikes against tens of thousands of individuals in Gaza – often in their own homes – all with minimal human oversight.

Rights groups and experts say these systems have played a critical role in Israel’s incessant and apparently indiscriminate attacks, which have laid to waste massive swaths of the besieged enclave and killed more than 50,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children.

People on twitter at each other’s throats for a recent trend in which you can use imageai filters to reproduce images in Studio Ghibli style.

Lots of people are throwing around the Miyazaki quote where he calls AI an “insult to life itself” - it’s worth noting that this came after he witnessed a simulation using AI animation to make a zombie body crawl across the ground. Miyazaki remarked that he has a very disabled friend he sees regularly, and that he can't find this usage cool or interesting. He goes on to remark about generative AI later in the clip, but let’s be clear, that specific statement was disconnected.

I’m curious what the Lemmy opinion is here. Is this a short-lived fad or does it speak to larger ramifications in the creative industry? Is this a silly little image filter or a harbinger of global artistic doom?

In case that were to be fun to post somewhere? Is there a better place to ponder such things?

BigEvilCo™ has so much moni 💰, so many marketing employees 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 and so many smart engenieers... how can they not create useful AI functionalities, which is not just a chatbot?

currently LLMs are mostly known for runing the internet and not being able to count letters 🍓 and embedding models are rarely used for anything but RAG

like -.,.-.. LLMs and embedding models have so many potential applications: 📑

• user asks for setting, LLM and embedding model go through all the settings and show you the settings you want ⚙
• give a VLM an image u like and ask "heyo customize the theme to fit those vibes" and it should filter the colors and assign them to the interface theme 🌈
• better search functionality with embedding models! combine that with keyword search and you get a robust but flexible search, which finds what you mean and type📰
• typing improvement hints like in microsofts word. just put a lil green squiggle. **rig

Hey everyone!

I've been working on my own toy reinforcement learning (RL) framework for a while now and have nearly implemented a full Rainbow agent—though I'm still missing the distributional component due to some design choices that make integration tricky. Along the way, I’ve used this framework to experiment with various concepts, mainly reward normalization strategies and exploration policies.

I started by training the agent on simpler games like Snake, but things got really interesting when I moved on to Super Mario Bros. Watching the agent learn and improve has been incredibly fun, so I figured—why not share the experience? That’s why I’m streaming the learning process live!

Right now, the stream is fairly simple, but I plan to enhance it with overlays showing key details about the training run—such as hyperparameters, training steps/episodes, performance graphs, and maybe even a way to visualize the age

I had a really good conversation with Dean Pleban (CEO @ DAGsHub), who shared some great practical insights based on his own experience helping teams go from experiments to real-world production.

Some practical tips Dean shared with me:

• Save chain of thought output (the output text in reasoning models) - you never know when you might need it. This sometimes require using the verbos parameter.
• Log experiments thoroughly (parameters, hyper-parameters, models used, data-versioning…).
• Start with a Jupyter notebook, but move to production-grade tooling (all tools mentioned in the guide bellow 👇🏻)

To help myself (and hopefully others) visualize and internalize these lessons, I created an interactive guide that breaks down how successful ML/LLM projects are structured. If you’re curious, you can explore it here:
