You need a product that people want to get traction…
Then you can accelerate.

Who but ad-sellers are going to make quick use of this archive? Do the libraries of Finland seek to monetize this exchange? A public advocate role is needed here.
this is interesting and thank you for posting.. However, the people that might take the time to digest and analyze the long threads are probably not rural ecologists.
Deep Ecology, or Gaia are relevant search terms, relating to the study of this material IMHO
Out of curiosity, why would ad-sellers be interested in this?

There is no way I'll read all that text from the demos...
AskPandi has a similar feature called "Super Search" that essentially checks more sources and self validates it's own answers.
iT's AgEnTic.
The answers are easier to digest, if you search for products, you'll get a list of products with images, prices and retailers.

The quest to build the universal personal assistant (UPA) has been reignited, with both OpenAI and Google going head to head. But what would the ultimate personal assistant look like? Would it be an app, a browser, an OS, or even a physical robot?
Check out ColPali and ColQwen for a SOTA open source version.

It’s sad that a product that I used as a North Star has lost so much momentum. Search has only had incremental updates but nothing major. ChatGPT has been the biggest development in search…
It’s one of the reasons why I started AskPandi as a side project. It’s an answer engine that gives answers without fluff. No link sifting, no ads, no popups, no cookie consents.
It’s making browsing the web fun again.
joanfihu commented on VQA and Image Chunking for MLLMs (GPT-4V and Gemini) joanfihu.com/2024/02/20/v... · Posted by u/joanfihu
Handling large images with resolutions higher than 2048x2048 remains a challenge for MLLMs.
Image chunking splits large images into multiple smaller images. Then the model processes each image and uses information from all of them to answer a question.
I managed to get it to work with a 3840px X 20294px web page screenshot. It also works with documents that have figures (tables, charts, illustrations, etc).
It seems Google won’t be able to pay to be the default SE in any browser: Safari, Mozilla, etc.

So I guess Mozilla is scrambling to find new revenue streams since 88% of their revenue comes from it.
I won’t fund Mozilla because it’s been forced to operate fairly.
They should build a product that makes me want to pay for it.
