Anyone figured out a recipe to run Gemma 4 E2B or E4B against audio files locally on a Mac yet? Omar Sanseviero (@osanseviero) The 2 small ones also support audio understanding! Including ASR, speech to translated text, and more — https://nitter.net/osanseviero/status/2039789969154183548#m

Google just open-sourced Gemma 4. Unprecedented performance for advanced reasoning and agentic workflows, and big leap in efficiency on a parameter basis. Use it now in KerasHub. I recommend the JAX backend – best performance!

AI Agents Are a Waste of Time
By

AI Agents is a waste of time. AI Agents = LLM + Data + Tools + Web Codex / Claude Code = the same thing (CLI Agents = good at reading files and coding). Just use that. Best agent = markdown file and scripts running through the file structure. That’s it.

Knowledge Base System with Interactive Tools for Podcast Research
By
–
Same, I have a similar setup. A mix of Obsidian, Cursor (for md), and vibe-coded web terminals as front-end. Since I do a podcast, the number/diversity of research interests is very large. But the knowledge-base approach has been working great. For answers, I often have it generate dynamic html (with js) that allows me to sort/filter data and to tinker with visualizations interactively. Another useful thing is I have the system generate a temporary focused mini-knowledge-base for a particular topic that I then load into an LLM for voice-mode interaction on a long 7-10 mile run. So it becomes an interactive podcast while I run, where I ask it questions and listen to the answers to learn more. Anyway, heading out for a run now, thanks for the write-up 👊
