Wrapped up my first steps on a RAG-based recipe recommendation prototype! Running smoothly locally, but I definitely need a disclaimer. It just recommended whiskey syrup for a kids' dessert... not the best way to keep the little ones happy! 😂 #Recipe #RAG #LLM #GRadio

Experiment #47.

With just a few lines of code I created a sample project for students, that uses a image-text-to-text model to annotate an image. LM Studio in the backend, Gradio for the interface. I'm impressed how easy this was. 🤩💻 and it works on my old mobile GPU too 😎 #gradio #llm #machinelearning #lmstudio

🤖 Leveraging LLM tech to refine my communication and keep my peers happy! Today, it suggested removing phrases like "bugging me" and "senseless exercise" for being unprofessional. I don't fully agree, but accepted the edits! 😄 Any stories about filtering your own rants? #Communication #LLMTech
