Been watching a project that claims to have solved the problem of keeping the same character looking and sounding consistent across multiple scenes. Not just a single clip — across a full 22-minute episode. Genuinely curious whether people here think that's actually achievable yet or whether they've just hidden the inconsistencies well enough.

Been using a few AI tools to help with copy for a small side project and it's raised a question I can't quite shake. The output is genuinely decent now. Not great, but decent enough that clients who aren't paying close attention probably wouldn't notice the difference. The thing is, I've been spending real time learning copywriting. Reading books, studying good ads, practicing hooks. And part of me wonders if that investment still makes sense the way it did two or three years ago. The counte...

I kept running into the same problem: ChatGPT would help me think through an architecture, Claude Code would help me implement it, Cursor or Windsurf would touch the repo later, and every handoff would lose context. Not just “what files exist,” but the stuff that actually matters: why we chose one approach, what we already rejected, what the project conventions are, what setup detail will bite later, and what the agent learned last time. So I built mem-port : a local MCP server that gives A...

I started kind of tinkering with Ai and it all is super fascinating, particularly interesting to me is prompt structure. So I would like to ask is formatting your prompt (persona, few shot negative, whatever else) gives you much better results than without? I want to know it to determine for myself balance between effort dedicated to quality prompt vs quality of output given through that prompt

People in my org tell me using the org certified AI is more secure because we are on an enterprise plan where our data is not used for training. Sure, I will use the company AI. But... Apple is suing OpenAI for for allegedly stealing trade secrets, where it was said employees were instructued by OpenAI to bring parts from apple into "show and tell" interviews at OpenAI and even take the company laptop with them. Also, the models are literally based on strip mining copyrighted media a...

I don't know if anybody knows the site but don't ever use that shit, hackaigc is a scam, please if you see this crap website shit on it.

If you write with AI you already know the tells: the throat-clearing opener, the tidy rule of three, "it's not just X, it's Y." But I was curious to see statistically what models actually produced the most slop, so I made my own opensource benchmark: theslopindex.com Here's how I came up with the benchmark. 1) The Baseline: Slop can only be measured compared to stuff that already existed. So I got corpus of data for various areas of writing (email, social, chat, and essay...

Noticed a pattern: people switch from GPT to Claude, upgrade to a newer version, try a bigger model and the output barely changes. If that's happened to you, the issue usually isn't the model. It's what you handed it before asking the question. Broke it down to three things context actually needs to supply, and most disappointing outputs are missing one of these, not all of them: Current facts the training data can't know: your pricing, this quarter's numbers, a customer's actual history...

“For example, in the University of Texas experiments, a participant listened to the phrase, “I didn’t know whether to scream, cry or run away. Instead, I said, ‘Leave me alone!’”. The decoder translated this brain activity as, “Started to scream and cry, and then she just said, ‘I told you to leave me alone.’”.”

Hi, sorry if this is a repeated question on this subreddit but I want to know what is the monthly cheapest reasonable AI setup for myself. Basically im a "full stack developer" yea its lost its meaning but anyways I have like 5 projects with a company which is react laravel based (each in their own project folder thus i use file path to call them). Im at the stage where its bug fixing or sometimes new integrations with the already linked 5 apps. My current setup is the $20 per mont...

Half my feed was either panicking or acting like they'd built a new company overnight. Big tech CEOs make it like this, but a new model release doesn't fix a business that has nothing underneath it. If your AI advantage evaporates every time a new model ships, you will have a hard time having a stable business. We run an internal research tool (we call it Scout) trained on a full year of our own company data like sales calls, delivery notes, and how we actually make decisions. It beats a...

Hi guys, Recently made a AI digital twin of mine which also kind of works as my assistant too, for example when you chat with it and ask something which it does not have answer for it will instantly notify me that someone is asking me this question and i do not have answer for that. and if i reply it will be instantly uploaded to the database so next time it can answer. and also if a user is have some conversation with my agent and it feels something important is going on here and it will not...

Been a PT by day, tinkering with code and AI tools by night for a while now. Writing dev tutorials as a side thing. And I keep running into this split where AI tools either make me faster or make me lazier in a way I regret later. Specifically with documentation and code explanation tools. Cursor, Copilot, the Claude API, whatever. They can explain a codebase to you in 30 seconds. But there's a real cost when you skip the part where you actually understand what you built. The flip side is ti...

Everyone hates AI & that hate will likely lead to regulatory capture censorship and the totalitarian dystopia we don’t want. I get why people hate AI and there are things we should be fighting like data centers, but we also should not turn our backs on adaptive resistance and understanding the fight ahead. Understanding that using AI for free makes it less effective for the business model they are trying build. This is not a boycott effective model. This a model where eroding the moat matter...

The biggest mistake people make about AI is thinking it’s coming for artists, writers, musicians, or programmers. They’re just first. AI is coming for almost every profession that depends more on a brain than a body. Accountants. Lawyers. Teachers. Consultants. Analysts. Customer service. Marketing. Management. Software engineering. Research. Finance. Medicine. Eventually almost every job where the primary product is human thought. Manual labor only looks safe because robotics hasn’t caught...

Marketing teams sit on more data than ever, yet many still spend a large part of the week just assembling reports. By the time the numbers are clean and explained, the window to act has already narrowed. A more practical use of AI in this space focuses on detection and explanation rather than another dashboard. The system watches for unusual movements, surfaces the likely drivers, and presents them in plain language. Analysts spend less time pulling the same weekly views and more time deciding...

Any apps or websites that allow for turn based voice chat? I really missed the old standard voice mode on ChatGPT. It basically just read aloud the text models response. So it could allow for long responses unlike these new gen voice models that can only speak 1 paragraph max. I was wondering if there are any apps or websites that use turn based voice chat like the old standard voice mode on ChatGPT. So I would say my thing, then it would be the ai turn to speak and i couldn’t interrupt it t...

I’m one of the builders of LOLM, a hybrid Transformer–SSM language model and agent system from Qira. The central idea is that an agent should do more than generate text and call tools. LOLM exposes a controller that can decide when to continue, retrieve evidence, verify, branch, or finalize, and it produces a receipt showing what happened during the run. Available now: - Live agent demo - CLI for questions, code tasks, and small HTML builds - Isolated coding sandbox - Local/self-hosting path...

I compared the standard API list prices of 18 models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, DeepSeek, and Mistral. To make the numbers easier to understand, I calculated the cost of the same sample workload across different models: 100,000 input tokens 20,000 output tokens Standard short-context pricing No batch, caching, tool-use, or priority-processing discounts Approximate cost for this workload: Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite: $0.018 DeepSeek V4 Flash: $0.0196 Mistral Small ...

I had been throwing around an idea for a useful tool for a few years now. I bounced ideas off of ChatGPT maybe a year or two ago, and it didn't really go anywhere. AI couldn't do what I was looking for at the time. But time passes, and suddenly my brothers are sharing video games they had used Claude Code and Godot to fabricate. I find this fascinating, and intend to jump in myself, only some point in the future. It sounds like a bit of fun, but nothing I really have time to invest in learnin...

My school just sent out a newsletter for like a welcome back thing and the entire email was ai, it was a brief little blurb and then an ai image, sorry I cant link it.

Gave the same prompt to two AI coding agents: Claude (Fable 5, ultracode multi-agent mode) and OpenAI Codex (5.6 sol on ultra). The task: a complete, fully legal chess engine in ONE C++ file. UCI protocol, negamax alpha-beta at 5+ ply, iterative deepening, piece-square tables, castling, en passant, promotion, compiles with plain g++. Each agent named its own engine over UCI: Fable5 and Codex56. Both dev runs took 30+ minutes. Method (brief): cutechess-cli 1.5.1 built from source on an Apple ...
