  • I am not sure, that would work. You could train a model that analyzes data and then feed it the data you want to transform. The data wouldn't be the training data then but part of your request.
    Like you can feed a book into GPT4/5 and then ask questions about it.

    For what you describe you wouldn't really need AI just a more or less fuzzy parser (like the scan a receipt, get the prices ocr things). Unless I didn't get it.

  • I sometimes dream of such things. Less waste, better inventory, customers get to choose inventory based on their wishlist, better prices, then I wake up.

    We actually have a small liquor store nearby that really puts stuff on the shelves if you casually mention something you like. But that's more the exception than the rule.

  • Why would you want a model trained on outdated prices? This is not really something LLMs are particularly suited for.
    Maybe to crunch historical data, but not for daily comparisons.

  • You just need someone to do it. Here in Austria someone did it: https://heisse-preise.io

    It's only in German and most of the prices aren't from a public API but crawled from different sources.
    It's open source. Nothing except greed is stopping them from providing something like this.

  • Like Chrome Firefox has an internal Task manager at: about:processes

    You could try opening it in a second window. It might show you what causes the hang. There is also: about:memory to see where the RAM went. It's a bit more technical though.

  • As someone else said, decimeters aren’t actually used by anyone.

    Tell that to the Austrians. You can easily spot Austrian recipes and sizes by the use of dL and dm. In most of the rest of Europe you'd be right. Also maybe only older Austrians use it more frequently.

  • It's mostly true. Most of the poisonous mushrooms of central Europe are not "sponges".
    The worst one I have found once is seldom lethal: Rubroboletus satanas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubroboletus_satanas
    I guess people don't usually pick stuff that looks like that. Though there are similar ones that taste pretty good.
    Toxic boletus usually taste really bad.

  • While I don't miss checking the index of my wall of Microsoft books (the light gray binders with the squishy plastic). At least those were (mostly1) correct and ad free.

    Then the future began and you got MSDN subscription on CD with sample code. Woohoo.

    1. they included a somewhat 20 pages of erratas that you sooner or later managed to memorize or punch and put in the correct place.
