(re)Introducing the Pebble Appstore! It’s up and running with all your favourite watchfaces and apps. We even built some new features like link previews when you share and similar apps. Check it out apps.repebble.com

Introducing DolphinGemma, an LLM fine-tuned on many years of dolphin sound data 🐬 to help advance scientific discovery. We collaborated with @dolphinproject to train a model that learns vocal patterns to predict what sound they might make next. It’s small enough (~400M params) to run directly on Pixel 9 phones used in the ocean! A very cool step toward enabling interspecies communication.

What’s a social app that doesn’t exist yet but you wish existed? Doesn’t need to get to 100m or 1b users, but should attract the most intellectual 10m users in the world.

I would like to see a. unpack details / dig deeper b. compare contrary views

Never before has there been such an accessible knowledge work agent freely available, as Perplexity Deep Research. What are some other demos you would like to see with it? Please comment here. Also, what are the pain points you're seeing today? We will look into supporting a "give me a super long report" if length is what you seek (I personally don't think it's a good proxy for quality of an answer, but most people seem to care about it, so we should support it). The bug on having to wait till answer finishes will be fixed. Few people pointed wanting more academic sources to be used - something we can fix at least for queries where those matter. Feel free to comment.

Story of my life!

some late night fun!!! @richinfante got the pebble SDK building on modern (cough python3) MacOS and linux. He even got the emulator working through Rosetta on arm! Took ~5 mins to set up. What a joy going thru the multitude of open source Pebble apps on apps.rebble.io

As you know, I live in Germany. And in Germany, we are sorely underserved when it comes to AI. There are hardly any discussions, there is no real community. My idea for German users here on X: Should we start a German community to discuss how we can bring AI to Germany? Should we get together and form a lobby, an association? I think we are the only avant-garde that can ensure that Germany is not completely left behind. ------------------- Wie ihr wisst, lebe ich in Deutschland. Und in Deutschland sind wir absolut unterversorgt, was KI angeht. Kaum Diskussionen, keine richtige Community. Meine Idee an die deutschen User hier auf X: Sollten wir eine deutsche Community gründen, um darüber zu diskutieren, wie wir KI nach Deutschland bringen können? Sollten wir uns zusammentun und eine Lobby, einen Verein gründen? Ich glaube, wir sind die einzige Avantgarde, die dafür sorgen kann, dass Deutschland nicht völlig abgehängt wird.
