🎉 RNAcentral Release 26 is here! This release introduces our biggest structural change yet: gene-level entries for ncRNAs across 204 organisms. For the first time, you can explore RNA data at the gene level, not just individual sequences. 🧵👇

This is my first first-author publication while at @ebi.embl.org! Its a good one, using LLMs to do some literature curation in non-coding RNAs. We've got big plans to do even more cool stuff with LLMs in the near future!

Gratifying that I'm still better at prompt engineering (for given values of better) than Claude

First impressions of the 2nd section test piece for the brass band championship regionals this year: its a banger! That last section is great! I'm sure 3 more months of rehearsal on it will knock that attitude out of me though

Fiddling about with LLMs and their weirdness... Why do loads of tokenizers have one single token for 34 consecutive spaces? Go here: huggingface.co/spaces/Xenov... and try pasting in " " (without the "). It's token ID 9898 for GPT4 and Llama3
