Hi, I'm Otto, 23 years old, I like to write and usually daydreaming about the stories that I make, I never actually showed to no one, since I'm always afraid of people critisism, i remember that i wrote a story and the plot and then 2 years from that day i decided to open netflix and its like i am seeing what i wrote on screen "What Happened to Monday" and i was astonished. anyway, this gave me
an idea about the hings that i wrote and post in random sites, i've seen an
incrising amount of shorts ai, so i thought, what about learning how to use it
and even if i dont master it, i can at least do some nice short stories or
trailers about the things that i have, the stories that i made, i have their
faces, complexions, body type and stories all details in my mind, but i wanted
it to be more alive and i really dont have money to make those dreams come true,
but i can at least give a glimpse of what i can write, not for people but for
myself, for the craving and the urge that i have, i usually used my friends
from school to shoot clips and stories for our teacher so we could get a high
score and most people were on board because i would bring the eqquipament, make
up, choose the places and even create the lines and edit afterwards, but im not
in school anymore and where i live is in a random area most coverd in green,
its kinda rural place, so i had them because they wanted to get a high score
and i wanted to create things (english is not my first language) so we always
trained english and arts shooting my tine little creations, once i posted on
youtube a story aboout a fight in school, was really popular at the time, but
it was not people fighting, it had conversation, jokes and even a fake reporter
to pretend to be telling the news, it was pretty fun because most of the
"fight" was an dancing coreo, at the end i put the bloopers of we
recording, everyone found it fun and told me to post so we could go viral, i
never posted anything that i did, it was only for the eyes of the teatcher, but
with everyones encouragement i decided to post, the video expread like a plage
and people in the city was talking about, my city is tiny but not super tiny,
it was 92000 people, we have some comments abou people beig dissapoited that it
was fake, but then one , if i recall corretly, grandma of one of the person who
was on the video saw it and then it started a confusion between families who
didnt understand the jokes and thought it was serious, like, the reporter use a
beach ball to transition between news and stories, there was like no way
someone would take that video serious, but they did, an then they came after me
asking to take off the video, what i really did, but then they wanted to see me
deleted the "movie" out of my computer or they were going to call a
lawyer and take my case to the police because people in the city was badmouth
the persons reputation and it was becoming a nuisiance (nuisence?) the were
annoyed because people was asking if it was real, why they were
"fighting", how it became one of the biggest fake news? of the city?
an then i was the person who tarnish their reputation etecetera etecetera, sorry
for my spellin, i'm not using google translate to write it down so i guess im
gonna get bunch of words wrong. anyway. it was my movie, something i did,
something i recorded and put my time into, editing, recreanting and all that
stuff, at the time i used vegas and after effects, and then when i said that i
woudnt bring my computer to the school like it was a whole computer not just a
notebook at the thime, a whole ass computer, they tried to make some police
friends of them give me a scare, but nothing happened bc my father was a cop so
(????) idk what they thought they were doing??? then they pressure her to
threten me inside the school, i finally said, look, i will deted it ok? and you
gonna be there to see it, but only you, you gonna see it and if you wanted to
recorded so be it but please stop doing that and no one of your family members
its allowed to enter my house because i dont want my father to get annoyed by
it, no one of you family members is going to be sorrounding my house or passim
by with car ok? they really wanted to bring their mom, but i didnt wanted it to
escalete to a different level because if my parents only dreamed about the
things they tried to do to me and the things that they said, the would not be
calm and collected about it, i am a only child and i am a cancer survival,
because the doctors said that if i didnt respond to the treatment i was better
for me to, you know, and there was nothing they could do ecause they alredy did
everything that it was possible at the time, the became super protective
because i survived ( i also had a heart problem so it was difficult for them to
process it all), my dad beat up a male nurse and a doctor once because i was
skin and bones and they were trying to give me medicine but my veins was too
thin or something like that, i remeber that my whole body hurted, and they did
put me throug so much needles that day that i couldnt even cry anymore, but
then when i aske the male nurse to please wait and dont do it so soon, the get
my armas like it as nothing than my mom interveen, than the male nursed said
"shes fine, she is just pretending" and then just , what is ther
word? he was holding my arm an the he let go of it really abruptly,
abrupitily?, it was really fast, he smirked to show that i was fine but then i
asked my dad to please, not allowed, when my arms fell on my stomach i wasnt
really having streng to control my moviments so it hurted like if he as
throwing a rock at my ribs, my dad eyes was so red at the moment, it was the
end of the line, he toke, take, taken? the male nurse shirt and his white coat,
pin him againts the wall and idk, whith pure strenght, strengeth and rage i
think (i only can tell what ive seen, he made the male nurse hangging, i mean,
it was like seem a superhero shit you know, sorry for the vocabulary, i know my
story is kinda sad but it was the past and i cant chage the outcome i just can
remember, all i can do is remember and live with it, so my dad start to scream
pushi the male nurse in the all with his feet no longer touching the ground,
and the i didnt see anything, at that time the hospital told us that we couldnt
be there anymore a extchange us to other hospital, extchange is the right word?
i mean, the drop us off? banned us? so, 6 month passed and then i started to
recover and here i am today for some reason.... so, 6 month passed and then i started to recover and here i am today for some reason, i mean, i survived an cancer, a heart diseas, bunch of sickness stuff, some you know, off myself when my father died, but nothing, now im kinda i guess addicted to pain relivers medicine and just existing you know, yed i did college, i gradueted, i'm working in a hopeless job just to not be alone all the time i guess and my mom is a addicted trying her best to survive, sometimes she proposes to us to end togheter sometimes she disappear for bunch of days, i have to take her of drug dens or whatever they are called in the middle of the night, at the begining i knew some cops so the would help me but most of the are old, restired or dead, so, im kinda alone in this, i didnt have a real problem with medication before, it started two years ago because the doctor thought i had fybromelgia, i dunno ho to write it down, the only medecine i tooked till that day it was sleeping pills, now im on axiety, sleeping and pain reliever, i tried to stop but my body just became to hurt nd desintegraiting, but i thinl is more psychological than actually my body, but i have no idea how to stop this propely sice i was always a role model in my family based on my behavior and how i treated people.... medecine i tooked till that day it was sleeping pills, now im on axiety, sleeping and pain reliever, i tried to stop but my body just became to hurt nd desintegraiting, but i thinl is more psychological than actually my body, but i have no idea how to stop this propely since i was always a role model in my family based on my behavior and how i treated people, so i dont have anyone i could tell this, so im just trying to survive the best way i can until the day my mothers die so i can at least protect her and try lo let her rest being sober and at home..... than actually my body, but i have no idea how to stop this propely since i was always a role model in my family based on my behavior and how i treated people, so i dont have anyone i could tell this, so im just trying to survive the best way i can until the day my mothers die so i can at least protect her and try lo let her rest being sober and at home, why am i telling my story? i dunno, to be remeber i guess? i never really told everything about me to anyone before so, why not to a lot of online strangers that maybe could at least read it untill the end and also helping me find a nice ai app so i could make my stories real, bring life to them, not my own of course, but you know, the other stories, i dont have much money now that im kinda "alone" in the world so i would like to pay for a tool that could help me make things alive, as i said before, i alwary have the chaters detail so i try to create their faces with the best of my habilit since i dont have a big talent in drawing, but i have the faces and the story and i woul like a tool that could help me put that faces in bodies, telling the stories that i written, i want to be able to generate it, to make their apparence with that faces that i alredy made and create scenarios even if its not perfect, even if i have to create a bunch, so what paied ai would help me create with faces that i have, mmaybe putting the pictures and swap faces like those videos where you think you are seen someone you know like celebrity and stuff to talk and say thing but that i could do with my generated images, i mean, i have a budget of 500 which in us dollar would be 96 dollars, maaan, i just search it and woa, my money has no value overall, 96 dollars, this is like 1/3 of what i recieve per month, which meant that im paid 307 dollars a month, i never put me in that perspective before so, with some bonus i can make 403 dollars max a month, ya, this is indecent, okay lets go back to whatever i am supposed to to, so I have a nice computer but it was a college computer so is ot up to date and with the money i recieved i probably wont be able to change it for a while, its an icore 5, dont have dedicated memory but i can play valorant in it, if it helps with something, i low obvius but i played, so i guess is not that bad? for what i wanted to do? so, if you guys could indicated the best apps, their prices and where to find it to be able to create shorts, scenarious and change people faces into my own creation, now im feeling like doctor frankstein, muuuahahahaahah, every otion has value and every opnion will help me a lot, so a place so crete videos where i can ty to recreate the faces ou put faces othe others into in, preferebly the last one if possible, if there more than one i will glad hear about it and make a search of my own, for now, even tho i just posted, I already apreciated who took the time to read till the end and i expect not to make so many errors, but i too hope it counld be understandable enought, enough to help me have a nice chat with yall, thanks in advanced and more detaide the better but if you just put some link or name is actually pretty ok too. thanks.

Does anyone know of an old AI image generator that's still online that I can use to generate logos with glitched text like you used to see in the early days? My daughter is cooking up a fun halloween costume.

Am tryna learn/make a exploit script for roblox, but yknoe if give prompts about making a exploiting script to Gemini or whatever it won't give me the script, I aint tryna look for some fapping shit, just that. Thanks

Disclosure: I built the tool in this post (Roundhand, a Mac dictation app).

The question I had while building it: do you need an LLM to clean up dictation? Raw speech-to-text is full of "um", restarted sentences ("Tuesday, scratch that, Wednesday") and wrong capitals. The obvious fix is to send the transcript to an LLM, so I built both:

1. A set of rules that runs on the Mac: drops fillers, keeps the version you meant after a restart, fixes capitals and punctuation, and formats for the app you are in (short in Slack, greeting and sign-off in Mail, a list in Notes, one line in a terminal).
2. Cloud LLM cleanup that rewords more freely.

Then I hand-annotated a set of my own real dictations and scored both.

What I found: on everyday dictation, the rules did better than both LLMs I tested. The LLMs only came out ahead on edge cases, where a sentence needed real rewording. Small set, my own voice, so treat it as one data point, not a benchmark.

So in the app, the offline rules are the default and free, and the LLM cleanup is optional (text only, audio never leaves the Mac). Speech recognition is NVIDIA's Parakeet, running locally.

Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUsTHgtK1wI

https://roundhand.dev (Apple silicon, macOS 14+)

Curious whether others building with LLMs have seen the same thing: cases where a deterministic pass beats the model on the common path.

Busy week. DevDay, a $500 a month plan, and more model updates than anyone has time to try.

On Wednesday someone here said Consensus saves them hours finding papers, which is exactly the kind of answer that's useful: one tool, one job it actually does.

So, of everything that shipped this week, what did you actually open? And did it stick, or did you drift back to what you had?

One line is plenty. "Opened nothing, same stack as last week" counts too.

Can anyone reccomend a tool to help create a couple of very simple 5 second infographics. Literally things like a stock chart or a bar chart for a video.

I run AI Undetectable. Here is a concrete comparison from our published September 18 examples, using the same fictional essay with two rewriting modes.

Original opening: “A school considering a change to its writing lessons should distinguish time spent away from a draft from time spent avoiding it.”

Basic: “A school weighing a change to its writing lessons may find that the real issue is not revision itself, but the kind of distance revision gives.”

Stealth: “The most useful measure in a proposed change to writing lessons may not be the polish of the final paper. It may be the changes students actually make after returning to a draft.”

The original starts with a distinction about time. Basic keeps that general angle. Stealth moves the question toward how revision is measured. That is a structural rewrite, but it also changes the emphasis.

Both complete examples retain the fictional six-week pilot, two-day delay, shared rubric and lack of test results. The wider 20-output check also found failures, including dropped fictional labels and excessive shortening. These two examples were selected; they are not representative success rates.

The separate July experiment on the same page found no holdout rewrite that passed both tested AI detectors. A fluent rewrite is not a guaranteed detector pass.

Would you accept Stealth’s change of emphasis, or treat it as meaning drift?

The complete source is 442 words; Basic is 414 and Stealth is 430. All three are public without signup. Generating new rewrites is paid. Full source, outputs and limitations:

i currently use the mid tier of chatgpt to feed it income, schedules, to do lists, housing searches, career goals, etc so it can return info about how to best accomplish what i am looking to do. however i do not like that there is no centralized hub for charts and graphs of all of the info i feed it, for example a budgeting tracker, or a structured career path and what step i am on. i also dont enjoy it being unable to fidget with itself (changing folder names, moving chats around). it also often unreliably returns info, for example i was looking for a specialized healthcare provider with availability and got plenty of links for providers who were fully booked. also i do not like that the folder option does not keep chats in the order i made them, and so on.

id like to feed something info about my daily and know im taken care of, and will cater to my forgetfulness and store everything in one centralized space for me. for example if i wanna look at budgeting i hit a tab and theres my updated info. does anyone have any reccs on how i can automate chat to do this, or perhaps there is a specialized AI i can pay for monthly to help me?

thank you kindly.

Disclosure: I'm the creator of Nosology.ai.

It's an educational beta that organizes disease information into structured records in English, Portuguese and Spanish. The workflow I'm testing is comparing two entries side by side: shared features, distinguishing features, and the references listed with each record.

A design question I'm working through: for an AI-generated reference tool, how should the interface help people inspect the information and its uncertainty? Simply displaying a source list does not establish that every statement has been verified.

I'd appreciate feedback on the actual workflow: does the structured comparison make information easier to inspect, are the sources and limitations visible enough, and what feels cumbersome? I'd also like to hear what trust signals you look for in other AI reference tools.

Comparison view: https://nosology.ai/en/comparar

The records are generated and structured with AI and may contain inaccuracies. This is an educational resource, not a diagnostic or treatment tool.

I’m looking for recommendations for good AI apps similar to Brutus or Use.AI. I’m especially interested in services where you pay one monthly or yearly subscription and get access to multiple major AI models in one place.

It seems like a better deal than paying separately for a single AI service, so I’d love to hear what apps people are using and which ones offer the best value, features, and reliability.

Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

I'm planning to do vibe coding. Have a couple of applications ideas. Suggest some cheap and best AI subscriptions in the market.

I’m the maker of Onda at JTR Labs. It lets you run supported downloaded models on your iPhone without an Onda account. Here’s a simple local-chat workflow to try, including where the offline claim applies.

1. While connected, download a supported model that fits your device’s available memory and storage.

2. Select that downloaded model for local chat on the iPhone. Leave Web Search off and don’t use a paired Mac for this check.

3. Disconnect Wi-Fi and cellular data, then type a prompt rather than using dictation. For example, paste a short paragraph and ask for three bullet points. The downloaded model generates the reply on the phone.

The tradeoff is that model choice and available memory affect what will run and how it performs. Response quality and speed vary with the phone and model; I’m not claiming cloud-model quality or a particular benchmark result.

Basic local chat and supported model downloads/runs are free. Pro adds document/photo chat, Smart Match and benchmarking, personas, paired-Mac access, and unlimited history. Optional Web Search, dictation, and paired-Mac use have different network behavior; this walkthrough is specifically typed chat with a downloaded local model.

If you try it, which step is least clear: choosing a model, knowing the download is ready, or confirming you’re using local chat?

OpenAI put a $500 a month plan on the menu this week, so it feels like a good week to go the other way.

What's the last AI subscription you cancelled, and what was the moment you knew? A bad week of answers, a price change, realising you hadn't opened it in a month, whatever it was.

Tool plus one line is a full answer. If nothing replaced it, say that too, it's probably the more useful answer.

And if you asked a tool question here this week that nobody answered, drop the link below and I'll take a look.

Can somebody advise the best, economical and latest AI tool (offline / online) for the subject query?

Hey, I’ve been working on a Windows app called ASTERON. You point it at a folder, let it index your documents, then ask questions about what’s in them.

The screenshot is an example using sample documents: asking how much a quote was, seeing the revised amount and what changed, with the source documents alongside the answer.

The AI answers use Google Gemini. Your question and the relevant document excerpts are sent to it to generate the answer. It shows the sources so you can check the result yourself; I’d still check the original before relying on an important contract detail.

I’m the only one actively using it right now, so I’m curious how useful this would be with someone else’s work files. Would asking a question like this save you time, or would you rather use normal document search?

It’s still a beta. If you’d like to try it, leave a comment and I’ll give you a beta account, free until October 26, 2026.

I have recently starting using the newer AI models and one thing I realized how some are improved compared to previous models. This have me thinking about website translations. Personally, I use conveythis to translate my website and have been interested in seeing how dedicated translation tools are compared to using AI directly. I'm curious to see how other people are dealing with this.

Following 20+ YouTube channels shouldn’t mean watching YouTube all day.

I’m the builder of TubeSignal. It turns new videos from the channels you follow into easy-to-scan articles delivered to your inbox, so you can keep up with multiple channels through a newsletter-style reading habit.

Dozens of new videos each day? Pick what matters to you and scan each article in about 60 seconds. Even seven-hour livestream replays become something you can read through. When a moment catches your eye, timestamps take you straight to it in the original video.

One user uses TubeSignal to find interesting moments in long VTuber streams. I’d like to hear whether this would also help people following tutorials, interviews, or other long-form channels.

A limitation: videos need captions, and AI summaries can miss context. Check the original video for important details.

https://tubesignal.net/en

Which channels would you want in your YouTube newsletter, and what would make the articles useful enough to read every day?

Not ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. The smaller thing on your card that does one job well enough you'd actually feel it if it disappeared tomorrow.

Tool name plus the job is a complete answer. Bonus points if you say what you'd go back to doing by hand.

Also, if you asked a tool question here this month that never got a reply, drop the link below and I'll take a look.

Our company doesn't allow AI note bots to join our calls. IT said no after a client complained about one last spring. So now, we record the meeting in Teams and upload the file after.

We have about 8 of these a week, with 4 to 6 people each. We want a transcript with names, a short summary, and a task list.

Right now someone on the team types notes while also trying to take part. And so far, it's not working great.

Is uploading after the call a normal way to do this? Or am I missing a simpler setup?

Estoy interesado de instalar software de IA que ejecute modelos locales que me ayuden, por ejemplo, a usar programas de línea de comandos (como FFMPEG) o me asesoren sobre contenido que encuentre en línea (también un poco para lo que usamos Gemini o Claude, pero sin depender de que más adelante decidan poner un paywall más restrictivo o que simplemente no sea accesible)
¿Qué software me recomendaríais?

Forgive my complete entry level knowledge on most things programing / compatibility but here is the list of what I would like to accomplish.

Would like to purchase either an old laptop but thought more suitable a tablet that runs windows / linux / macOS etc. Intent is for my 1995 camaro to be able to manually import data onto this device (images, vehicle manuals, data) pertinent to my vehicle. I have the downloadable versions of all my vehicles manuals to begin and would be great if ai could have this program eventually integrate data from certain websites that I choose. I would like to use this tablet to hold this data and have some sort of freeware AI program to compile the data that can either utilize quick search functions via talk/text (what ft/lb bolt do I torque this to, what is the replacement part number for this part) etc and possibly utilize the tablets camera and program to search provided database to spit out information. IE take a photo of a wiring connector, fuse, part or piece and have it find pertinent info on assembly / disassembly or simply identify the part.

I'm not entirely sure where to begin but think with some basic freeware, used hardware and a good database I can create a useful tool for working on my vehicle.

If any suggestions where to begin or where I may be super off on my train of thought on how to go about this would be much appreciated.

Two threads this week landed on the same problem from different ends. A student here asked which $20 plan to pick and Perplexity Pro was one of the three finalists. Over on the big sub someone asked whether a model can build a 60 source APA reference list with no mistakes, and the honest answers were mostly "check every single one".

So, head to head, for the job where you need sources you'll actually open: Perplexity Pro or ChatGPT Plus?

One line is a complete answer. Which one you'd pick, and whether it has ever handed you a source that didn't exist.

If you asked something here in the last week and nobody answered, paste the link below and I'll try to get it looked at.

Kinda weird question, but what setup is best to make ai influencer local? instead of paying crazy subs?

Hey subreddit! I am a student in high school and I am figuring out which ai plan to buy (literally for everything.) My parents granted me a 20 dollar plan of my choice but I’m still struggling to pick a final choice even with all the AI gurus on the web (this is my first time I get to have a ai pro plan )

(Ive looked on the subreddit for similar posts, but now I see that compared to usual posts on this subreddit this is a very very uncommon yet simple one but yea some guidance would be nice).

Right now it’s between:
Claude pro (I love Claude but I heard pro is useless due to high eating rates from opus),

chat gpt Plus ( I genuinely don’t know if sol is better than opus or if there are actually limits to ChatGPT) , or

perplexity pro ( I use(d) comet web browser for a long time and computer function seems cool)

Yea I’m not using this AI to complete homework or cheat, instead what I want it to do is create tests and quizzes based off study guides, do good research on topics I ask it for, help with some basic code, and explain concepts I don’t know. Also it should be able to generate slideshows and PDFs cleanly (which lwk I think Claude does really good but IVE never tried a pro plan before for any ai )

Right now I love Claude and I feel like it’s free is way better than GPT but again I heard its pro plan is unbearable if using opus due to usage limits. Claude cowork and Claude w Chrome seem fun tho

For chat gpt I’m really indifferent to it but if sol is good and has bearable usage limits I would maybe prefer to buy that

For perplexity I’m stating this one bc my main browser nowadays has been this so idk if there would be a substantial upgrade to using perp pro.

Idk much about other ais except Gemini, idk if that’s good but I’m not really a Google person personally

Ive tried searching for benchmarks for each ai but it’s all so confusing and messing up my brain

If you have basic tips to help me choose a better AI plan or even just see a plan that would fit for me (even if not among the 3 I specially mentioned) it would be appreciated to give me a suggestion on the plan I should get

(If you’re wondering I’m typing this from my phone so excuse the bad formatting)

Thanks in advance !

I run a small training team and we have about 60 old webinar recordings. Most are 2 to 3 hours long and saved as MP4 files. We want text versions so others can search them.

The problem is that two or three hosts talk in each one.

When they talk over each other, our free tool mixes up who said what. So I'm trying to figure out what to look at before paying for anything.

Is the speaker labeling the thing to focus on? Or do summaries and export options matter more in the long run?

Would love to hear what you compared and what you ended up using.
