Getting output data out of an LLM outside of raw chat interfaces is like scooping water with a leaky bucket. You need to plug more and more holes and add extra buckets to catch the spills. Structured JSON can help for a lot of cases but it makes the text generation less capable.

Fun example in the app I made for it. The message the LLM actually interpreted can be seen when you mouse over. I should find a name for a simulation of the experience of being misunderstood.

Just made a tool that uses local #AI in @agregore to rewrite the "tone" of text on a page with a user defined filter. You can now either up the stress level of your doom scrolling or apply rose tinted glasses with a single click.

LLM "alignment" is so annoying. They basically shut down and shut up whenever they encounter negative text. I'm trying to make a filter that rephrases hate comments as complements but it just refuses to engage if the negativity is high enough 🤷

Being a 31337 h4x3r can be handy for bypassing web base "not allowed to run on linux" checks.

neat "... under different conditions, distinct mechanisms (cell:cell communication and tubulogenesis vs. cytoskeletal bending) are triggered toward the same specific large-scale outcome. It arises because evolution does not just make specific solutions to specific problems, it makes problem-solving systems that do not over-train on prior history, knowing that both environment and genetics will change over time"

So, these mrna vaccines can be used to get the body's mune system to attack not omly invaders but alao arbitrary cells. This is used in animals to sterilize them without surgery by making their immune system attack their reproductive cells. I think this poses the opportunity for non invasive breast reduction by making the body attack just the cells in a persons breasts. Potential win for trans masc folks

Good news for #BlueSky folks, I'm now reachable on there as just `@mauve.moe` thanks to the custom domain support in brid.gy :)

I'm getting popular enough to get unsolicited transphobic emails. 🥳

python is actually pretty cool

Faffing about with my mind-goblin assistant has been useful now that we're working on Hypha's bot. We've got it connected to our handbook and are refactoring to make it possible to use with other "front ends" like email down the line

What's the point of money when billionaires think they can just throw humanity away and live in their bunkers as we all starve and die of disease. Why do we keep participating in this stupid system made to grind us into a pulp so some rich kid can idle away and jerk off to how meritocratic everything is.

LMAO managed to activate a client's security team by misspelling an email when requesting access to something. Seems I give off "hacker invading your systems" vibes

Victor in the last couple episodes of Arcane is such a gender. I need that extra arm on my back 😍
