Polished the draft up. This is where I think developing with AI is going in the next few years: assertchris.dev/articles/202…

$50 per million tokens out. Does not matter to me how good it is. I am never paying that.

In my downtime, I've been working on a small first-person dungeon crawler inspired by the likes of Eye of the Beholder. It still needs work, but I'm happy with what I have so far (and there's some placeholder text at the end of the video). #IndieDev #PixelArt #DungeonCrawler

Finally got the first version of ext-infer polished and released. It's still very much a v0.x but this is a fully operational demonstration of native PHP loading and executing pre-trained models. Use it for LLM chats, embeddings, you name it. Local inference, native PHP.

It's wild that this year has been the one in which my career has most changed; and how little of it I feel is shareable. I know I should share more but the AI noise really has killed my desire to compete for scraps of attention.

I genuinely want to just share, without considering the reach. My portfolio/blog has no analytics by design. The trouble is that I have so few friends, and even fewer people who care at all about the tech stuff I do.

Just feels like screaming into the void.

I am currently obsessed with solving a particular problem, and it is taking all of my energy.

"Your lungs are flesh, and all that dies will fade away" How long after you are gone will all memory of you fade away? 20 years? 50? You have a whole life to become good memories for your family, friends, co-workers.

If you're just learning to depend on Anthropic or OpenAI models alone; you're not thinking about the future enough. The only affordable way to use AI in the medium/long term will be to offload large parts of what these frontier models are doing to small models.

If you are in AI for the long haul, you need to: - figure out what deterministic things you are using AI for that a script can replace - figure out what parts of your work a small model can do with better tools and workflows

Anything else is short-term thinking.
