Miasma: A tool to trap AI web scrapers in an endless poison pit
We may have already paid for AGI. The bill just looks like a bubble. (snippet from short doc)
In the recent kv rotation PR it was found that the existing q8 kv quants tank performance on AIME25, but can be recovered mostly with rotation
The comment: [https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/21038#issuecomment-4150413357](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/21038#issuecomment-4150413357) I think this could be great for existing q8 users. Personally I'll be sticking with fp16 for the foreseeable future.
What if AI doesn't need more RAM but better math?

Tinylora shows lora training works at 13 parameters + own experiments to verify claims
The tinylora paper shows that we can alter model behavior with only a few parameters. [https://arxiv.org/pdf/2602.04118](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2602.04118) I tried replicating the paper, and made a tinylora implementation for qwen3.5, and it does work, it's crazy to think about. I got the same resu
[P] Built an open source tool to find the location of any street picture
Hey guys, Thank you so much for your love and support regarding Netryx Astra V2 last time. Many people are not that technically savvy to install the GitHub repo and test the tool out immediately so I built a small web demo covering a 10km radius of New York, it's completely free and uses the same p
Andrew Curran: Anthropic May Have Had An Architectural Breakthrough!
>Three weeks ago there were rumors that **one of the labs had completed its largest ever successful training run, and that the model that emerged from it performed far above both internal expectations and what people assumed the scaling laws would predict.** At the time these were only rumors, an

Stanford Chair of Medicine: LLMs Are Superhuman Guessers
A Stanford study (co authored by Fei Fei Li) asked LLMs to perform tasks requiring an image to solve but were not actually given the image. They were able to solve the questions better than radiologists by 10% on average just by guessing the contents of the image from the prompt, even on questions
