"Meanwhile, generative search tools’ tendency to fabricate URLs can also affect users’ ability to verify information sources. #Grok2, for instance, was prone to linking to the homepage of the publishing outlet rather than specific articles.

More than half of responses from #Gemini and #Grok3 cited fabricated or broken URLs that led to error pages. Out of the 200 prompts we tested for Grok 3, 154 citations led to error pages"

Wow! I didn't really like Gemma 2, but Gemma 3, released today, is awesome. It comes in four sizes, 1b, 4b, 12b and 27b. It's super fast and except for the 1b version it can even handle images.

The 27B version apparently outperforms both DeepSeek v3 and LLaMA3-405 on the ChatbotArena benchmark.

It's also the first small model I've tested that's good at German.

Been learning #Vue today using #Gemini as a way of doing it. I understand perfectly well both #HTML and #CSS, as well as some #javascript, because I've been doing web dev since some of you hadn't even left your dads balls.

I could sit and structure all the boilerplate manually... but then I write a prompt that does exactly the same thing. I still need the necessary knowledge to deal with the underlying problems although.

#LLM programming is just the new #nvim macro.

Don't @ me bro.
