Harry potter half-blood prince vibes. Interesting just how much the medium changes the feeling of interacting with a chat model

erm, you mean harry potter tom riddle's horcrux diary, sure

you know, the diary that wrote back to you and possessed your soul? that cursed diary?

[guax]

I wonder if its better than the current version where my soul gets possessed by youtube shorts for 40 minutes.

Now only if llm response font is some handwritten style.

This uses LLM Tools to pick between outputting an SVG or plugging in a virtual keyboard to type. The keyboard is much more reliable, and that's what you see in the screenshot.

If nothing else it could use an SVG font that has handwriting; you'd need to bundle that for rendering via reSVG or use some other technique.

But if I ever make a pen-backend to reSVG then it would be even cooler, you would be able to see it trace out the letters.

That's definitely pretty easy to achieve, just change the font settings to use a particular handwritten style font [0].

That would be next-level immersion! You could probably achieve this by rendering the LLM’s response using a handwritten font—maybe even train a model on your own handwriting to make it feel truly personal.

Script fonts don’t really look like handwriting - too regular.

But one of the early deep learning papers from Alex Graves does this really well with LSTMs - https://arxiv.org/abs/1308.0850

Implementation - https://www.calligrapher.ai/

ooo -- thanks for the link!

Like Apple Notes's Smart Script?

[memorydial]

Actually if you figure that out please post it here!! I'd love to see that!

[memorydial]

Exactly! There’s something about handwriting that makes it feel more personal—like scribbling notes in the margins of a spellbook. The shift from typing to pen input definitely changes the vibe of interacting with AI.

That's beside the point but you are probably referring to harry potter and the chamber of secrets not the half-blood prince.
