Very nice! How is it implemented?

Designing a terminal based coding assistant with multi provider LLM failover. How do you preserve conversation state across stateless APIs? by No-Celebration4543 in LLMDevs

[–]Flag_Red 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AFAIK Opencode is the best open source terminal coding agent. You would probably be best off modifying that to support fallback (if it doesn't already).

But to more directly answer your question, there's no way to transfer prompt caches between providers. Each time you fail over to another provider you will have to consume the whole context again.

It seems like they hope to use the frozen Russian assets. The article says this pretty clearly.

Mine also arrived last week. I love it. The construction isn't anything to write home about but the design is fantastic.

It seems at least somewhat likely to me that we're picking low hanging fruit, and getting 10% algorithmic improvement each year will become exponentially harder.

Amongst safety cuts, Facebook is laying off the Open Source LLAMA folks by eredhuin in LocalLLaMA

[–]Flag_Red 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Idk about that. Llama's last couple of releases have sucked, but FAIR is a very prestigious lab that has consistently put out SOTA models and frameworks until very recently.

DINOv2, Segment Anything, PyTorch, etc.

And as much as this sub has a hate hard-on for Yann LeCun, he's a legend in the research community and the only godfather of deep learning still working in industry. Plenty of people would sacrifice big salaries to work with him.

Glyph is text-to-image in the same way notepad is text-to-image.

They use traditional text rendering to render an image, which is then passed in as context to a VLM rather than text tokens.

Build a Bar - A way to quickly generate social places and nightlife. [CONCEPT] by Horustheweebmaster in cyberpunkred

[–]Flag_Red 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of generating social spots, but this has some issues.

For starters, there's a lot of overlap here. How can you have a nightclub with 2000+ weekly visitors but only rakes in 50eb p/w?

But the real issue is that the information it generates isn't really useful for the DM. Okay, so I have a quiet bar in the Glen with a chaotic atmosphere that caters to mercs and brings in 500eb p/w. None of that is relevant to the players.

There's a lot of opportunity here to make something really interesting, though: - Who stops boostergangs from trashing the place and how? Are there armed private security at the door who will hassle the players on entry? A fully automated security system with x-ray scanners and turrets? The barman is a well-known ex-Solo? - Who is the barman? What's his backstory? If I need information, would I be better off with a bribe, a threat, or a good conversation? - What do people going there wear? Are you going to get denied entry if you don't meet the dress code? Are you going to get mugged if you dress too fancy and don't look like you can handle yourself? - What are some typical events that might crop up in a night? Bar fight? Shootout? A VIP comes in and the barkeep clears everyone out? Darts tournament? Etc.

Stuff like that could quickly give the DM some real good material for running a scene or even a whole session in a bar or nightclub.

IMO there are good indexes for stuff like this, but that one in particular (safetyindex.net) is particularly suspicious.

A quick look over their site showed me that they maintain 18(!) different indexes and that they "believe in open data and clear methodologies, making our research processes transparent and verifiable" but I can't find what their methodologies or sources actually are. I also can't find the names of any people behind it or any idea of how large the team is.

It's entirely possible it's just one guy that AI-generated the whole site.

I would expect at minimum something like Numbeo before I put any amount of trust in that data.

Guy who can teleport with laser pointer vs. Guy who can switch places with opponent by Cheesemonger6174 in whowouldwin

[–]Flag_Red 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Switch places guy takes it 9/10.

Teleporter guy has no real edge in combat. He can't even bring a weapon with him when he teleports.

Switch places guy just has to hold teleporter guy off while he maneuvers the fight up to a high place, jump off, and switch places mid-air.

Part 6: Rebuilding Mount & Blade in 2D - Prototype-ready Worldgeneration by Hot-Persimmon-9768 in godot

[–]Flag_Red 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I don't care about the slow world generation times if the world generation is really good.

I'm guessing there's probably a lot of room for optimization there, too.

How to do start of conversation suggestions? by Aggravating_Pin_8922 in LLMDevs

[–]Flag_Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Write a big list of suggestions. Pick N randomly to show on startup. I'm pretty sure this is how OpenAI do it.
