God forbid someone lives a different life than you, has to have some mental problems right?


What does that even mean? Why would OSS make it slower? Why would it be an overkill? This is not Producthunt, you have to give at least some kind of explanation for your claims.


"Smart, invisible regex" sounds like a lot of bs... could you give a more technical explanation?

Also the Whisper model doesn't really have a context window, it already segments the audio with a certain amount of overlap between the chunks, I really have a hard time understanding what you are trying to say here.


Whisper will fail > 99%* (edit, most of the time) of the time at lengths over 90 minutes and fairly high over one hour.


This is absolutely not my experience. I regularly (weekly at least) use whisper for 90-120 minutes pieces of content and only rarely have problems.


This is just plain wrong. I have my own Whisper App in the AppStore (on iOS, with very limited memory capacity) and there are no problems at all with longer Audio / Video files.


I've never had whisper complete a single attempt a anything over 75 min


Can't really declare that without declaring which whisper model in particular you are referring to, as there are a number of them


I’ve used whisper-cop on 5-hour podcasts without problems.

Would also love to hear what you mean by “smart invisible regex,” sounds like AI slop to me.


This reflects my experience 1:1... even telling 2.5 Pro to focus on the tasks given and ignore everything else leads to it changing unrelated code. It's a frustrating experience because I believe at its core it is more capable than Sonnet 3.5/3.7


What a coincidence, I just setup AnythingLLM yesterday for trying it on an enterprise level. I'm super impressed with most of the stuff I used so far.

I just wish there was an option to properly include custom CSS. The default interface looks a little bit.. dated.

Keep up the amazing work!


+1 on custom CSS overwrites.

A bigger feature that would add a lot of value might also be a prompt manager with a shareable prompt list.


The biggest problem rn is Apple's blocking of JIT for everything but browsers. This means neither UTM nor the more modern emulators can run at close to full speed. I'd like to see this changed. This seems like the real "Gatekeeper".


Could you explain what JIT would allow? Would sideloading allow this to "work" or would it need OS support?


JIT (Just-In-Time) compilation is a technique that allows certain programs to run significantly faster by compiling code at runtime, rather than ahead of time.

Apple enabled this for iOS 14+, but killed it again with iOS 17. It's basically the reason why we currently don't have full speed VM's on iOS / iPadOS devices.

While Sideloading / Altstore / Sidestore allows you to install any IPA, this still doesn't enable JIT for these apps. There are currently some workarounds that involve running certain software on your local network (search SideJITServer on Github).


Thanks!

> but killed it again with iOS 17

Aah, this explains why UTM (iirc) allowed VMs on iOS 16 on M1 macs but not on 17.

If I understand right this requires another computer to run some code, right?
