• Installing packages without an internet connection?

  It seems according to pkgsrc.org that pkgin might follow the PKG_PATH environment variable. You're supposed to set PKG_PATH="http://cdn.NetBSD.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/$(uname -p)/$(uname -r|cut -f '1 2' -d.)/All/", and according to uname(1), -p gives the processor architecture and -r gives the operating system [kernel] release.

• Slackware 15.0

• Best resources to get started?

  Poe, is a tool that allows you to try lots of different LLMs like ChatGPT, Anthropic, LLama and more. It is a great sandbox to get started and see the difference in the tools. Note; not all the interface/features are available all the time. In ChatGPT 4.0 ability to search the web or generate an image from in-line hasn't yet been updated. Still, it's not a bad tool to try everything. [via Poe]. Source: 7 months ago

• On the Decline in Quality of CharacterAI: A Technical Perspective

  Now, the placement of the "Definition (Advanced)" section is less clear. Given its large size (up to 32000 characters), it's doubtful that it's part of the initial prompt. It's more likely that it's maintained as a separate reference knowledge base. This is a feature that other AI chatbots, like Poe's bots, can also utilize.

• The best free ChatGPT alternatives

  I saw a post earlier this week saying that they feel the outputs from ChatGPT have been declining, and a lot of people agreed. There are a good amount of quality AI chat alternatives out there besides ChatGPT and some even offer GPT-4 for free!

  Is poe.com completely free? Is there an API access? I haven't looked much into it but it feels like it's just a relay service to openai? Source: over 1 year ago
