After 50, you hold three assets AI can't automate: experience, ethics, and mindset. They compound with time. That's not a [...]
We watched The Matrix, understood the warning about sentient programs, and then built AI agents anyway. Four scenarios for how [...]
Large language models (ChatGPT included) and astrology are using the same approach. One uses compute, the other uses collective human [...]
The bad news is that singularity is already here. There is no good news, I'm afraid.
I'm spicing up my very own iOS productivity app, addTaskManager, with loads of AI enhancements, give it a try.
Download for free in AppStoreI tested Nanbeige 4.2 3b on a 16GB MacBook Pro. The 4bit quant is good, but the generation is relatively slow.
K2 Horizon 3.7B runs comfortably on a 16GB MacBook Pro. Worth noting that the 7B parameter version was better, but way too slow.
A frontier model was capable to change a smaller model by just editing their weights. The short and long term consequences are fascinating.
A Raspberry Pi 4 can run comfortably (3t/s) LFM3 1.7B. Not usable for heavy coding, but good enough for an orchestrator.
I tested Liquid Foundation LFM3 Omni 2.2B model, in a browser on my MacBook Pro. At 1.6GB download, the experience is spectacular.
Ling 3.0 Tiny is a surprisingly good model to run on a 16GB MacBook Pro. Test generation can go as fast as 45 tokens / second.
I tested the Apple Intelligence model Apple ships with its default install, by actually chatting with it. One of the fastest models so far.
Spark 2.6 4B from Spark LLM is a decent model for its size. In my testing, there was even room left for other apps on my [...]
Testing Nemotron 3.5 Bolt E4B 4GB on my 16GB MackBook Pro: balanced answers and decent speed. It's a good model for day to day usage.
During development of one of my apps, Zen Tales, my coding agent (Claude, back then) deleted some audio files I already paid for. A difficult lesson.
Second installment of my stories from the vibe coding trenches is about a mindset shift: nothing is difficult anymore. Listen to your users.
Nvidia Nemotron Dory 1.0 4B is a surprisingly good model that can be run locally, on a 16GB MacBook Pro, for coding and text generation.
This are real stories from my life as a vibe coder. This one shows how I overpaid $150 on Cloudeflare while vibe coding Flight Lens.
The 4th video in the series about what models can you realistically run on a 16GB MacoBook tests Liquid AI LFM 2.5. A solid model.
Artificial Intelligence might be replaced by Super Intelligence. It's just a word play, for now, but it may shape how we call it too.
Setting up local AI on a 16GB MacBook involves using optimized binaries for the Metal architecture. Start with MLX-serve. Optionally OpenWebUI
At the end of the day, all AI models are the same: statistical approximation machines. A really good AI model is just in the question you [...]
This week I'm testing Xiaomi MiMo V2.6, Qwen 9b distill, on a 16GB M1 MacBookPro. It works good enough for text generation and light coding
This week I'm testing Google Gemma 4 E4B on a 16GB M1 MacBookPro. It works surprisingly well for text generation and even light coding.
Grok 4.7 was launched yesterday and I had a chance to test it. It has better prompt adherence, it's more thorough, but also token greedy.
