This article is very clearly shitty LLM output. Abstract noun and verb combos are the tipoff.

It's actually quite horrible, it repeats lines from paragraph to paragraph.

I know that's one of the tells of AI-generated text, but if anything there's too much of it on this page. The article barely has any complete sentences. I think a human learned "sentence fragments == punchy" and then had too much fun writing at least some of this article.
My guess is they used the 2b model to write the article as a proof of concept. Which did not prove the concept.
clever guess but no lol. used claude for the writeup. the proof isn't the prose, it's the tape and the code. run it on your machine, you'll have a free private agent custom to whatever you need. that's the proof of concept.
It would be ironic if the article itself was written with Gemma2B.
I don't care anymore, if it happens to violate HN guidelines: Please, authors. Please write your own damn articles. We can absolutely tell that you're using Claude, I promise. (I mean, it might not be Claude specifically this time, but frankly I'd be willing to bet on it.) The AI writing is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
The worst part is the phrases don't actually mean anything. It's the LLM equivalent of flowery prose. The author admitted below that the article was Claude. So there you go.
