symisc_devel commented on GPT-5.4   openai.com/index/introduc... · Posted by u/mudkipdev

I have access to GPT-5.1 Pro at work, duuuuuuuuude, what a garbage. It is so slow and in many ocasions it does not work at all.

I wonder if 5.4 will be much if any different at all.

5.3 codex is a quite good coding agent for complex tasks.

Congratulations, great work Kimi team.

Why is that Claude still at the top in coding, are they heavily focused on training for coding or is it their general training is so good that it performs well in coding?

Someone please beat the Opus 4.5 in coding, I want to replace it.

Gemini 3 pro is way better than Opus especially for large codebases.

There is already a C library that does realtime ascii rendering using décision trees:

Congratulations for the launch. Actually we launched a similar product recently named Vision Workspace (https://vision.pixlab.io). The general chat niche is quite saturated and practically locked by the major players. I recommend that you focus on one core feature and pivot from there. For us it was the built-in OCR and document query interface inside the UI that initiated the traction and the app is quite popular now in Japan and Malaysia.
symisc_devel commented on Nano Banana can be prompt engineered for nuanced AI image generation   minimaxir.com/2025/11/nan... · Posted by u/minimaxir

In my own experience, nano banana still has the tendency to:

- make massive, seemingly random edits to images - adjust image scale - make very fine grained but pervasive detail changes obvious in an image diff

For instance, I have found that nano-banana will sporadically add a (convincing) fireplace to a room or new garage behind a house. This happens even with explicit "ALL CAPS" instructions not to do so. This happens sporadically, even when the temperature is set to zero, and makes it impossible to build a reliable app.

Has anyone had a better experience?

I work on the PixLab prompt based photo editor (https://editor.pixlab.io), and it follows exactly what you type with explicit CAPS.

On some cars (recent VWs in particular) when you plug the battery back in you need to twiddle some settings in the computer otherwise the charging circuit will fry the battery prematurely. We've gotten ahead of our skis with this nonsense, time to rein it in.

This issue is notorious for BMW cars. You have to notify the ECU each time you install a new battery.
