This is why I say I can only imagine the non-tech suits using it to be assholes to the dev team

CEO of cloudflare says he’ll donate the bandwidth for Wordpress dot org to shut mullenweg up https://xcancel.com/eastdakota/status/1841154152006627663

Yeah it just collates everything in the repo into a single text file so you can upload that to the shit machine

I read Cell so reluctantly

This gonna end in a gofundme

In the endless genAI shit that the bird site pushes on me, this caught my eye because it seems like a dream tool for a non-tech suit to generate blame examples for engineers https://xcancel.com/rohanpaul_ai/status/1840941643223945561

I was too busy poking fun at them and posted them here

One other thing, also correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t it a giant key logger as well?

Did you ever see that A16z funded startup that was making a web browser that streamed the web for an intermediary server? It was fucken wild

The whole concept of responsive really died in the arse with the onset of the full stack web developer.

I might be wrong but this sounds like a quick way to make the web worse by putting a huge computational load on your machine for the purpose of privacy inside customer service chat bots that nobody wants. Please correct me if I’m wrong

WebLLM is a high-performance in-browser LLM inference engine that brings language model inference directly onto web browsers with hardware acceleration. Everything runs inside the browser with no server support and is accelerated with WebGPU.

WebLLM is fully compatible with OpenAI API. That is, you can use the same OpenAI API on any open source models locally, with functionalities including streaming, JSON-mode, function-calling (WIP), etc.

We can bring a lot of fun opportunities to build AI assistants for everyone and enable privacy while enjoying GPU acceleration.

This is fucking hilarious. GIT is my favorite blockchain

Ok, you’ve convinced me

It's like how "marketing" became "UX research/design"

Glad you covered this. Can only imagine b-movie villain types sitting behind a desk telling their employees to work faster to produce the swill

Surprisingly, not a sexbot!
