Use at your own peril. Miss a 20 dollar order, oh well. Miss a 2 million dollar order, that's a pretty big oopsie.

So my vision experiment went worse than just using yolo-world. Still might work as a verification step though. Anything to avoid tagging images manually.

That’s the thing about doing novel things with AI: It either fails, or there’s a GitHub with a way better solution within a few days. If you couldn’t find a good tool for something a week ago, it’s time to look again.

Genuinely curious, but how are you doing this at scale?

you missed my point. These systems evolve over time and improve.

When Apple released QuickTime the videos were 160x160 and could barely do 10fps on the most expensive piece of apple hardware at the time, the Mac IIfx.

How many handwritten addresses on envelopes are read manually by the post office these days?

You missed my point, OCR doesn't hallucinate

I'm familiar with hallucinations I'm just saying things will continue to improve with AI tools and like everything else, these things will be overcome with time.

Are you saying a human will always be better able to decipher handwriting and avoid 2 million dollar mistakes?

I asked it to give me the best way to sous vide a tri tip roast. It gave me some ranges of temps and times for various results. I think I'm going with 131 for 5 to 6 hours, followed by a quick sear.

Anyone have experience with AI website creation? Any tips? What's the best company to sign up with? Wix?

Took screen shots of my video game girlfriend and make her pics photorealistic. Merged with mine. Now she’s real. I need to find an AI that will make her nude now. But baby steps.

Finally made a home assistant bot. Used qwen3-30b and extended OpenAI integration. It handles complex instructions WAY better than Alexa once you get prompt and function structure correct. Took me a couple hours to figure out default “execute_service” function sucked. Now I can ask it to rotate colors and make 20% brightness on 20 bulbs all at once or say make the red ones green. Alexa screws things like that up almost every time.

I say no. I set up an Openclaw deployment this week on a VPS (hostinger). I communicate with it via telegram. The first real project was to create a new website. I was already working on it so I had a basic structure and some text. I fed that to Louie (my AI agent’s name) and very shortly he had a websites coded and told me what I needed to do to make it go live. It is professional and someone told me they would have thought a professional web designer created it. Had a few refinements- all I had to do was describe what I wanted changed and in a few minutes the website was updated. It was amazing.

Has anyone used the Claude plug ins for Excel and PPT? Unbelievable. It's crazy that MSFT is allowing this infiltration. Co-Pilot is an embarrassment and a disaster.

Curious if anyone else has used openclaw. I’ve been playing around with it but it hasn’t been very useful for most tasks. It can barely open a chrome browser to search the web and parse through. I also communicate via telegram which is cool, but I don’t really see the point.

I gave up after a couple weekends. Works really good for messaging apps but most things I want automated are structured enough that openclaw is an asinine waste of resources. 90% of the time, even with opus, it just talked to itself.

Thought about starting a thread on it, but it seems completely obvious AI is the future of investing and money management

Is anyone familiar with anyone trading with Opus or another model. I saw a post the other day about a guy deploying 6 agents to monitor and trade BTC 5 and 15min markets and it works incredible. I know it’s hard to wade through all the AI slop on social media but I can’t imagine it’s difficult for tech so sophisticated
