Can we now load and run the inference on the real deal models, such as the open LLMs from the Hugging Face, for example? Let's see with Gemma 3! dragan.rocks/articles/25/... #Clojure #AI #LLMs

So, we created SQL so "analysts" can query the DB and get rid of programmers. They delegated this to programmers anyways. Now, they created AI that writes SQL, that queries the DB for "analysts". Guess who's going to be stuck writing shitty AI prompts. news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4400...

Damn, this is the clearest evidence yet of my “AI powered Dunning-Kruger” hypothesis: that AI proponents are only bullish about AI for work they don’t actually know or understand.

I've spent many years building HPC and ML libraries, and writing 2 books that teach Linear Algebra and Deep Learning to actual programmers (not math PhDs). Here's how I went from writing my first blog post to building a following, front-paging Hacker News, and useful books.🧵👇

Programmers treat linear algebra like magic. But it's not magic. It's code. It's vectors. It's yours to master. Linear Algebra for Programmers shows you how—with zero fluff. If you write code, you need this book. 👉 aiprobook.com/numerical-li... #DevLife #MachineLearning #AI #Coding

I'm thinking of creating a #Clojure integration to #PyTorch (C++. without the Python part). I guess, if you can't beat them, join them... How many Clojurians are interested in that? Would it be something you use passionately (at least for running existing model in-process)?

It was nice to see in this Reddit thread www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comm... many people saying that #Emacs has amazing support for #Clojure because of CIDER and friends. Seems we did something right!

which language is one for which emacs is godly at?

My experience in experimenting with LLM coding so far: Me: Write code that frobnicates LLM: Sure here is non-functioningXYZ.code! Me: That doesn’t work because of XYZ LLM: Sorry here’s non-functioningABC.code! Me: Now that’s broken because of ABC LLM: My bad here is non-functioningXYZ.code!

And then there was the day in 1977 when Rob Halford of Judas Priest ran into Christopher Reeve during the filming of Superman The Motion Picture. What I love most about this is that Reeve sounds exactly like I’d hope Superman himself would. (From Halford’s memoir “Confess”.)
