I'm bad at chess. So my AI agent built me a coach. Play on Duolingo → Stockfish grades every move overnight → blunders get drawn → a training plan is waiting when I wake up. Zero clicks. One Hermes Agent skill. What would you want coached? 👇 nitter.gq/PaulTisl/status/211542…
Replying to @Teknium

I want an AI that sorts my email on my own Mac. Anyone on underdog have an invite? @underdogai nitter.gq/0xSigil/status/2117395…
I bought every billboard in the SF bay area cuz I’m pissed BIG AI IS STEALING OUR DATA Cloud-based AI & servers are getting hacked rn. Go LOCAL No data centers, no servers, no Linux vps

Like most of us, I didn’t have the pleasure of knowing you personally. I only caught glimpses of you through your incredible performances. The world is a little colder and the sun a little dimmer today. Prayers for you, your family, and your loved ones. 🙏

5) Hermes offers to create reusable skill **WIN** 6) I tell it to create a nightly job to ingest new games and run them through the reusable skill. Also a weekly progress report as well. All of this from a minimal set of prompts. Thank you @Teknium @NousResearch and all the countless people on X and in the AI labs for creating the tools and models to make tools like #Hermes to let dreams become reality.

4) Create focused training plan

3) Repeat for all 70 games in Duolingo. Analyze all 70 games to identify tendencies and weaknesses.

2) Analyze game play using local Stockfish library (see #1) and generate chessboard representation for each blunder move.

Try Underdog: free, capable, private AI running locally on your device New build and Saluki 27B are out. Under 8GB, beats Qwen 3.8 27B at tool calling Like, repost, and comment one task you wouldn’t give a cloud agent to get an invite🦴
Today we're releasing Underdog Saluki 27B Based on Qwen 3.8 27B, Saluki is almost 7x smaller than its full-precision counterpart while it keeps 96% of its benchmark performance and beats Qwen at tool calling It's the best model <8GB that runs in Underdog Saluki is available today under Apache 2.0. Try today in Underdog underdog.ai/saluki

Six months ago I had a hunch. Local AI won't become the norm until it feels instant. Running a model on your own machine should feel like magic, not like tapping your fingers waiting for a reply. The response to TensorFold since has blown me away. Thank you to everyone testing it, sending PRs and sharing feedback. There's a lot more speed to unlock. Right now most of my time goes on reviewing and landing PRs. That matters, and every fix makes TensorFold better, but the biggest gains are in deep performance work I can't get to quickly. If you want to see what TensorFold can really do, backing would let me work on it full time, with the hardware to test faster and dig into performance, and bring it to everyone in local AI. All in the open under Apache-2.0. We have been made aware that TF is being run in real production environments, so we could potentially look into support packages. To back the project, sponsor hardware or talk about support, my DMs are open. Even just sharing this post helps. 🫶🏼

Everyone wants to learn Machine Learning Almost nobody gets past the tutorials They watch hours of videos Save hundreds of resources And still don't know how to actually build with ML That's why I'm sharing the Machine Learning with Python Cookbook by O'Reilly 169 pages of practical ML with Python from preprocessing all the way to deep learning Less theory More building If you're learning ML in 2026 you'll want this saved Giving it to the first 4500 people only Follow me so I can DM you Like + RT Comment "ML" Once the limit is reached I'll stop sending it

Clear walkthrough of LoRA, LoRA+, QLoRA, VeRA & DoRA — how to fine-tune big models without touching every weight. Handy if you're building on local LLMs. youtube.com/watch?v=U80tjcTh…
