This week, I learned:
- Assisted generation uses a faster LLM to generate text and a better (tokenizer-compatible) LLM to validate it. This makes it faster. E.g. Gemma 2 2b with Gemma 2 27b
- Power Toys has an Advanced Paste that uses OpenAI to paste as Markdown or JSON!
- Interest Turing complete languages:
- find + mkdir, maybe
- sed and awk
- Minecraft’s Redstone Circuits
- Conway’s Game of Life
- Cellular Automata Rule 110
- Magic: The Gathering
- SQL
- Excel
- Rev.ai does a good job of diarization. Cost: 2 cents per minute. Update: 6 Jun 2025. Cost: 0.33c/min Ref
