I understand this perspective a lot more. I assume they're going to haggle and work on a few items, and adjust pieces here and there. What if they at least get sanctions lifted, that would be huge, no? Going to be an interesting couple of weeks.

More and more are popping up, same for IRC channels. A lot of older gens are headed back. I love my local BBS, met a lot of interesting people.

I bet there is some moronic explanation. I have no doubt at this point and how things are going.

Supposedly they hold your deleted conversations/projects for 30 days. If that is true or not, idk, but it was asked when this first started.

Oh sure it is! I’ve helped set up an AI cluster rack with four K2.5s.

With some custom tooling, we built our own local enterprise setup:

Support ticketing system Custom chat support powered by our trained software-support model Resolved repository with detailed step-by-step instructions User-created reports and queries Natural language-driven report generation (my favorite — no more dragging filters into the builder; our (Secret) local model handles it for clients) In-application tools (C#/SQL/ASP.NET) to support users directly, since our software runs on-site and offline due to PPI A cool repair tool: import/export “support file packet patcher” that lets us push fixes live to all clients or target niche cases Qwen3 with LoRA fine-tuning is also incredible — we’re already seeing great results training our own models.

There’s a growing group pushing K2.5s to run on consumer PCs (with 32GB RAM + at least 9GB VRAM) — and it’s looking very promising. If this works, we’ll be retooling everything: our apps and in-house programs. Exciting times ahead!

I run a local model on the daily. I have it making tickets when certain emails come in and made a small that I can click to approve ticket creation. It follows my instructions and has a nice chain of thought process trained. Local LLMs are starting to become very useful. Not OpenClaw crap.

My fear is that these large "AI" companies will lobby to have these open source options removed or banned, growing concern. I'm not sure how else to explain how much I enjoy using what HF provides, I religiously browse their site for new and exciting models to try.

Not sure if you've been keeping an eye on the front page of HN, but me thinks the AI agents are starting to post. I haven't figured it out yet but it has been getting odd around here. Might be nothing.

You mean cutting into the profit/MONEY of these large corporations? How will they survive!?

As a human living on this planet, with roughly another 50 years left, I say we allow our actions to continue. We are unable to stop those in power and with high influence from doing anything; we deserve what is coming. Earth will be fine without us. Good luck everyone!

From what I get out of this is that these models are trained on basic coding and not enterprise level where you have thousands and thousands of project files all intertwined and linked with dependencies. It didn’t have access to all of that.

I'd be a bit more worried with Z-Image Edit/Base is release. Flux.2 Klein is our and its on par with Zit, and with some fine tuning can just about hit Flux.2. Adding on top of that is Qwen Image Edit 2511 for additional refinement. Anything is possible. Those folks at r/StableDiffusion and falling over the possible release of Z-Image-Omni-Base, a hold me over until actual base is out. I've heard its equal to Flux.2. Crazy time.

The MSI motherboard I use has 3, and with the PCIe expansion card installed, I have 7 m.2's. There are some expansion cards with 8 m.2 slots. You can also get SATA to m.2 devices, or my fav is USB-c drives that hold 2 m.2. Getting great speeds from that little device.

I’ve paired my Z-Image Turbo with SeedVR2 upscale, running on a RTX3060 12gb, 32gb sysMEM, generates in 40sec. I’m holding out for Z-Image Edit that is a larger model, once that is out… going to be interesting. Oh and to train your own ZIT LoRA, takes 5hrs for 3000 steps. So fast.

The latest of the big three... OpenAI, Claude, and Google, none of their models are good. I've spent too much time monitoring them than just enjoying them. I've found it easier to run my own local LLM. The latest Gemini release, I gave it another go but only for it to misspell words and drift off into a fantasy world after a few chats with help restructuring guides. ChatGPT has become lazy for some reason and changes things I told it to ignore, randomly too. Claude was doing great until the latest release, then it started getting lazy after 20+k tokens. I tried making sure to keep a guide to refresh it if it started forgetting, but that didn't help.

Locals are better; I can script and have them script for me to build a guide creation process. They don't forget because that is all they're trained on. I'm done paying for 'AI'.

Just a fair warning, it likes to spell Acknowledge as Acknolwedge. And I've run into issues when it's accessing markdown guides, it loses track and hallucinates from time to time which is annoying.

That's an actually nice setup. Have you looked at Z-Image and the Pixel LoRA that was released? I've found it works fairly well at keeping the pixels matched with the grid.

Could also use tampermonkey to do that, also perform the same function as OP.
