Tried two very open ended prompts: "Home robot" and "Jet engine". First one returned only two plates connected with 4 rods, second model did not produce any 3d model at all.

Curious whether some hierarchical modeling could be applied here.

Totally relatable pain- getting LLMs to reliably drive precise CAD operations is surprisingly hard, especially when spatial reasoning and plane/extrude/chamfer decisions go wrong 70%+ of the time.

For people looking at a different angle on the "text to 3D model" problem, I've been playing with https://www.timbr.pro lately. Not trying to replace SolidWorks precision, but great for the early fuzzy "make me something that looks roughly like X" phase before you bring it into real CAD.

I wonder whether this 30-min per day of wearing the headset, had more of meditation effect rather than actual electric interference. Would love to see placebo effect study with a mock headset.

Is it only me, or after reading this article with a lot of high-level, vague phrases and anecdotes - skipping the actual essence of many smart tricks making transformers computationally efficient - it is actually harder to grasp how transformers “really work”.

I recommend videos from Andrej Karpathy on this topic. Well delivered, clearly explaining main techniques and providing python implementation

I am not following that closely US politics, but are other sectors under the same scrutiny: guns manufacturer, automoto companies (road rage)?

Have been using pandas for years and statements about polars definitely seem appealing. Especially around performance, where apply function in pandas (to iterate over rows and derive a new column) can easily be 100x slower than vanilla python. Similar with some pandas APIs culprits like making sure to reset the index after joins and other transformations

Hardware is impressive as expected - engineering porno.

One use-case that i can imagine having this headset is as a replacement for external displays. But that would need to be conditioned on great pass through and ability to use physical keyboard and mouse.

As a non-native English speaker, I often have troubles with clearly transforming abstract ideas from my head into a text representation adding grammar on top. ChatGPT can definitely help with that and increase supply of clever ideas that can be now wrapped into well written text.

There are platforms like alpaca.markets that deal with all the infra-aspects and allow you to concentrate on the algorithm part.
