You can now describe a circuit in plain English and get working Verilog out of an LLM. Agents can iterate on it, run simulations, fix timing issues. The biggest barrier to FPGAs was always that writing HDL sucked and…

Does anyone have decent intuitions or hard clues on how big models like GPT-5.4, Gemini 3.1, and Opus 4.6 actually are, and how they compare to the best open models like GLM-5? Are they all roughly in the same range now…

I’m trying to do the “voice assistant” thing fully locally: mic → model → speaker, low latency, ideally streaming + interruptible (barge-in). Qwen3 Omni looks perfect on paper (“real-time”, speech-to-speech, etc). But…

I don’t use UI-integrated coding assistants; I live in Aider. Mostly on Gemini 2.5 Pro, sometimes o3—after a while you learn which model shines at what. I wanted something more agentic (simple things like edits across…

Hey HN, I've been leveraging LLMs to quickly build out React apps, which is great, but I'm really struggling with the design aspect. My apps function well, but they lack that polished look, and I end up in an…
