Beautiful work!

I was surprised by my own feelings at the end of the post. I kind of felt bad for the AI being "put down" in a weird way? Kinda like the feeling you get when you see a robot dog get kicked. Regardless, this has been a fun series to follow - thanks for sharing!

Extensions have too many security risks for me. At this point I'd rather just vibe code my own extension than trust something with so much access and unpredictable ownership.

Great write-up! Thanks for sharing your journey
This model is awesome. I am building an infinite CYOA game and this was a drop-in replacement for my scene image generation. Faster, cheaper, and higher quality than what I was using before!

I've been really impressed with this model specifically because of how insanely cheap it is: https://replicate.com/ibm-granite/granite-vision-3.3-2b
I didn't expect IBM to be making relevant AI models but this thing is priced at $1 per 4,000,000 output tokens... I'm using it to transcribe handwritten input text and it works very well and super fast.
Any species that is advanced enough for interstellar communication will almost certainly be a highly aggressive apex species. You don't get to the top of the food chain by being nice, you get there by murdering all of the competition and plundering all of the resources. And if you were trying to be nice, someone else would have just wiped you out.
The big question is if a species can eventually reach some point of collective enlightenment where they leave these primitive impulses behind. But based on the current state of humanity, I'm not to optimistic.
Not necessarily true! I think this interactive game applies: https://ncase.me/trust/

Asking ChatGPT Agent to try doing this is hilarious

This is exactly how I've been building software with AI lately. Getting AI to create a detailed plan with phases, then implement and use a separate AI to review the code. It works quite well! Curious to see how well it works when implemented directly in the IDE

I recently struggled with PGlite for a while and ended up using full postgres via https://github.com/leinelissen/embedded-postgres which worked like a charm!
