Wow this sucks so bad.
a person posted on /r/datahoarder that they have created an archive of the Epstein files with added metadata like mentioned people and etc. But everything is LLM-generated.... Including the "full text" of the documents.
Rather than OCRing them, they were fed to chatGPT with a system prompt that told it that it was an expert at OCR.

@jonny I've played around with some AI-based OCR and it sucks ass. Just use PaddleOCR

Its so cool how LLMs are always finding new ways to do misinformation even when you think you are creating very meticulous archive-grade information

Ah is that the new tesseract? Can't find benchmarks (thanks ai search results), but in your experience it's more accurate? -

Can't find benchmarks (thanks ai search results), but in your experience it's more accurate?@jonny I have a blog post (in German) about detecting text in photos and PaddleOCR performed much better than Tesseract there. Haven't checked with strangely scanned PDFs, but I suspect that it also might do well

"AI" is just so convenient. Finally we are no longer beholden to traditional OCR which requires a few clicks or commands to yield highly accurate text with predictable failure modes.
Now all you have to do is explain the entire nature of what OCR is, how "reading" works, and how "documents" as a representation of language work. If you remember to insist repeatedly that the position in which text is laid out in two dimensions impacts its representation as a string, you may yield ?????

Yeah that's where I was thinking it'd be, like a "piefed_announce" or something.
Man, the "_announce" suffix brings back my mailing list PTSD.

As far as I know, this is the community where it happens so to speak. There is also !piefed_announcements@peertube.wtf where @rimu@piefed.social will post videos showcasing new features. However, not all features have need of a video.

On ActivityPub.Space, I started adding links out to various implementors' development announcements.
I wanted to add one for Piefed, but the only community I know of is this one, piefed_meta. Anyone can post there, so I was wondering if there was a dedicated community just for Piefed announcements.

Il fediverso nasce anche dall’esigenza di piccole comunità queer e neurodivergenti, nonchè alcune categorie fragili (come le persone con disabilità) di creare spazi online sicuri.
Questo è il fediverso. Tanti piccoli spazi sicuri dove le persone non sono esposte ai fascisti di oggi che prendono di mira i più fragili per divertimento.
Se essere fanatici di OpenSource significa proteggere il diritto dei più fragili di poter comunicare liberamente allora io lo sono
