@AndrewCurran_ I use grok every day to research software changes/github issues/software doc research. It is very good at real time data search. Might be SOTA in this niche. Hardly a failure.
Meanwhile LeCun only surfaces to let out more hot air. A very forgettable person.
@BasedTruthBomb@techdevnotes If you are using it in a harness the new grok build model is the way to go. I’ve been happy with it in opencode and especially with the new grok build cli
@Jeyffre Not sure it would fit. Would have to be a q4 at least. With 4 you will need a loud network switch, and speed will probably be well under 20 t/s. Would be a fun experiment if you have the $$ though. I have a 2x spark cluster running minimax m2.7 at about 40 t/s. It’s pretty decent
Some interesting FSD testing.
0.13 second reaction time.
Probably quite a bit faster as there is no way of knowing for sure at what point FSD identified the issue.
Current FSD is too reactive if anything imo. Mine keeps breaking hard for the elderly drivers around here who are constantly jump scaring it with their bad driving.
I've been working a bit more on writing a audio native ai harness.
speech to text -> LLM -> tool calls -> text to speech.
nothing serious, just a fun experiment.
the best thing about this is how simple the code is. the tool calling in particular works incredibly well and its just a couple lines of python, no silly overbuilt frameworks.
mostly built with grok build, which I have been enjoying quite a bit. it seems to have the multi-agent thinking that Grok 4.3 has, and the cli tool feels modern and fast compared to claude-code.
still aimed at hosting on a spark, which is a great platform for hosting light weight 24/7 cuda stuff like speech to text servers.

@antirez hacker news comments have gotten really miserable and a lot of the submissions have become more political than technical in nature. i've stopped visiting it
@ryanvogel opencode should add a mic button/key and a option to configure a url for a whisper.cpp server. i wrote my own utility for this but i still have to paste in the resulting text
@AndrewCurran_ meanwhile aws govcloud bedrock is still on sonnet 4.5. idk if its licensing terms or government approval that slows aws down, but it is vastly behind the commercial environments.
