Happy Diwali to everyone celebrating around the world! May the light of this festival brighten your year ahead. Shot on iPhone 18 Pro Max by Gursimran Basra.
I use Akshar frequently and it's excellent for formal Hindi and Marathi (my primary use-case). However, I do agree with Natasha here, the informal spoken variants of both are lacking in such models.
Both languages have multiple regional dialects, and Marathi has several sub-branches, none of which are accounted for. The situation will only improve when people who write and speak these dialects are in positions to develop these models further.
There’s more: 27.3 introduces a memory graph.
It’s centered on you: relationships, places, routines, health, workouts, and what motivates you or holds you back.
Plus “memory atoms”: facts, opinions, intentions and events, with time, place, people and topic.
Tidbits:
• The memory graph is filled by two kinds of recipes:
1. Fastpass: Turns already-structured data into insights. For example, Person-v1 reads your Me card’s name fields.
2. Agent: An on-device or PCC model extracts insights by querying Siri chats, messages, photos, health data, and other sources.
• There’s only one agent recipe today, MotivatorBarrierResource. Its prompt asks 60 built-in questions, including “Do extended solo media activities during evening downtime routines highlight time availability barriers for adequate sleep?”
• The memory graph is still being built. For example, there’s no process that creates memory atoms yet.
• Memory atoms can generalize into broader memories. Each is tagged with one of 21 topics, such as food, travel, finance, or services, which can store your dentist or lawyer.
Here’s where to find the DBs on Mac:
• Memory graph: ~/Library/CorePersonalization/insight/MemoryGraph/memorygraph.db
• HybridSearch (incl. explicit-memory records, none yet): ~/Library/Daemon Containers/<UUID>/Data/Library/HybridSearch/index/C/index.db
Both use HybridDatabase, Apple’s fork of Kùzu (storage v57), so the public kuzu package can’t open them. You can use HybridDatabase.framework.
If you’ve been on the fence of buying Pockity+ for the Mac app, now’s a good time. Prices will be going up later this year when the new version releases.
If you have already bought Pockity+ for Mac, it’ll continue to work with the new update.
Waiting for ArtIsRight's MacBook PROLED review on YouTube… None of the other videos are talking about the new AdobeRGB gamut support, and I'm sure Art is gonna nerd out about it.

My quote tweet got more views than the MP's own post.
Pune is telling you something.
Metro videos don't impress people who fall into potholes under the metro. Two years left.
Fix the basics or expect hard questions at the ballot box!
