Claude Haiku 5.5: a diligent, dumb workhorse?
As people who follow my blog might know, I fell out of love with Claude at some point, despite it being one of my favorite chatbots for a long time.…
Now I am even more perplexed!
In my previous post, in a nutshell, I expressed my disappointment with Gemini (especially for coding, but also as an all-purpose chatbot) and, among other things, my surprise that ChatGPT’s…
Gemini is increasingly bad, but ChatGPT surprised me
Using LLMs is as unpredictable as the weather. One day a model seems decent; the next day its next version (or even the same version!) disappoints completely. I keep giving…
Rughiniș nu crede în apocalipsa AI
Spre deosebire de ramolitul de Geoffrey Hinton și de traumatizatul de Jacob Coxon, Răzvan Rughiniș tot nu crede în apocalipsa AI. L-am mai menționat pe excentricul nostru profesor de la…
The miracle of the French subjunctive
This is a quick-and-dirty complement to my post in Romanian, În care discut cu Gemini ciudățeniile conjunctivului în franceză și italiană. This time, I questioned ChatGPT in English to see…
Random new and old Linux news
Not my usual self, but consistent with it, I hereby offer a collection of news and comments related to Linux. Anchors work by using a section's number (e.g., #3). 1…
AI and Linux: a bit of ranting
From the hundreds of URLs visited per week, here are a bunch of comments based on a very short selection of news from the last 3 weeks. I am unhappy…
OpenAI’s Playground vs. ChatGPT
I'm far from being a fan of ChatGPT, and my wife isn’t one, either, but she trumped me on this one. Unbeknownst to me, she was using for quite some…
Vibe-solving the Erdős 1196 problem
Ludditus: That news about how ChatGPT solved the Erdős 1196 problem in 80 minutes doesn't say how the hell someone managed to get it to think for 80 minutes. Either…
Chatbots are increasingly useless ● Searching for a watch
I don’t use chatbots to write either texts or code for me. For code, Gemini CLI wasn’t bad when I used it, and Qwen Code was very decent, too, but…
What if I boycotted all Chinese LLMs? ● Ludditus investigates!
This idea might come as a shock to those who noticed that I was quite a heavy user of Kimi lately. I mostly used it for answers that involved distilling…
Who isn’t on the Big Bad Web?
I’m not a huge fan of Kagi's products and services. Their web search is not free. Kagi Translate seems to be temporarily free, and it usually performs great translations, except…
The golden age of free LLM chatbots might soon end + BONUS
I'm trying to collect my thoughts on the current situation regarding the public availability of LLMs. This post comes as a quick follow-up to “Free AI coding agents are becoming…
Agentic AI 101 with Tina Huang
While I abhor OpenClaw for reasons I won’t list here, there are some advantages of it over more traditional agentic AI workflows. To oversimplify, let’s say it’s a shift from…
Sam Altman in India, and other AI news
❶ The Indian Express hosted a Q&A session with Sam Altman, OpenAI's CEO. As usual, this lunatic has proven his brain damage. The most discussed and criticized answer was the…
Chatbots are mostly clueless regarding the game of GO
I was visiting Reddit for a Linux-related topic, when a thread from r/baduk was suggested to me: How is this a real eye? This is an elementary eye viability recognition…
Reassessing the usefulness of major LLMs
I keep being disappointed by major chatbots. You see, it's not enough if such an LLM knows about those newfangled frameworks or programming languages; it has to know, or to…
I asked a few chatbots about a possible nightmare scenario
“Let's imagine the following scenario. Ten years from now, the world will have had a generalization of GenAI in all forms, and people will almost exclusively acquire information from AI…
Patrick André de Hillerin vs Kimi și multe alte distracții cu AI
Niciodată nu mi-a plăcut Patrick André de Hillerin, însă am remarcat pe DCNews un articol care descrie argumentația lui PAH cum că am avea de-a face cu un abuz: Dublă…
ChatGPT și CCR: Deci așa, cam în vreo 15 ani…
M-am distrat puțin cu ChatGPT, dacă situația mai permite să facem haz de necaz (nu, nu permite). Iată transcrierea integrală a discuției cu agentul fără suflet și fără creier: ❶…
