Hello everybody!

I launched a free newsletter where we deep dive into some of the toughest challenges for AI in production—especially now as POCs are everywhere, but real-world scalability gets the short end of the stick.

We're launching an ebook on 28th this week 😳

Regular speech-to-text tech struggles with kids’ voices since they’re higher-pitched and less predictable.

We worked on that by creating a smaller, more accurate model that works well with children’s speech, even in noisy or low-power settings.

Did anybody create a voice-only chatbot? What improvements would be cool from a UX perspective?

"prompt engineering" is just fancy copy-pasting at this point

people tweaking prompts like they're adjusting a car mirror, thinking it'll make them drive better

you’re optimizing nothing, you’re just guessing

Did anybody figure out how to prompt chat gpt to get the perfect animation using @gsap-greensock.bsky.social ?

I am a beginner with animations and debugging them is not my forte :(

As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity.

TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

Hi! 👋

I’m Kat. I’ve been a professional dev for over 15 years. I maintained the NPM CLI for 5 of those. I sat in TC39. I work at Microsoft. I’m self taught w/a film degree and no formal CS edu.

Are you new to tech? What do you wish you could ask some1 like me?

Literally AMA
I wonder if early-in-career folks would appreciate folks like me doing little AMAs on here.

Indexing messy PDFs? Try these:

LayoutAnalyzer for messy formatting.
TextDensityAnalyzer to tell text from images.
VisualElementAnalyzer for charts/diagrams.
TableDetector to grab tables.

Convert them to images and use Vision Models like ColPali/ColQwen2.
