I recently bought about ~50 19th century menus from France for special dinners to go along with a project I was working on. Was looking for specific meals.
There are so many on ebay and delcampe and I think people used to make these and save these special event menus much more than we do today.
I have been to a handful of tech dinners recently that have had them though so maybe it is coming back!
The thinking models (especially OpenAI's o3) still seem to do by far the best at this task as they look across the document to see how the writer wrote certain letters where the word is more clear when it runs into confusing words.
Yeah. I always used Sol but tonight before reading all this, my daughter and I were talking to it and even my 8-year old said it sounded like she didn’t care or want to talk to us. Super disappointing.

I bought a couple guardian bikes a couple days ago. Their website said they would arrive today, February 1. I assumed it was some kind of weird leap day issue.
I worked for mDesign for and we owned m.design for a while. We used it for our corporate email addresses ([email protected] for example) but the majority of non-tech employees and vendors just couldn’t get used to it and tried things like [email protected] or etc so it got scrapped.
As a collector who is in the process of founding a museum, I think my favorite examples of this type of exhibit are:
The Great cabinet of curiosities and their collection of collections at the Basel Historical Museum
And then of course the Enlightenment gallery at the British Museum, which is essentially a collection of collections showing how people used to display their various types of collections.
Creative cloud all products plan gets 1000 credits per month. This seems pretty generous to me? I haven’t been using anywhere close to 1000 generative edits a month during the beta.
It really is pretty remarkable. I research and write about a historic topic that has its roots in France so I had always had the idea of some day localizing my site into French. And it is shockingly good at translating full articles. It understands the context of what is written and knows which words to use to keep the same meaning when literally humans can’t even do it well as there are terms and phrases used 200 years ago that just aren’t used anymore. But are correct and relevant in the context of these antiques.
I’ve been doing something similar recently that impressed me. I have been taking handwritten manuscripts from the early 1800s and feeding them into AWS Textract and then feeding the raw OCR data results into Claude2 or GPT4 to have to it make sense of the horrible OCR from the handwriting.
I was even more impressed feeding it handwritten French documents like patents from the same time period. AWS Textract only works with English so even with it’s ML OCR of trying to make English words from the French handwriting, it was still workable when telling the LLM I was feeding it French text that was OCR’d even though it all kind seemed like gibberish when looking at it.
We just launched The AI Creator Hub on Product Hunt! It’s a stacked resource full of AI tools, powered by GPT-3 that help creators launch their first course.
