jjgoon DBRX: A new open LLM

> "On HumanEval, DBRX Instruct even surpasses CodeLLaMA-70B Instruct, a model built explicitly for programming, despite the fact that DBRX Instruct is designed for general-purpose use (70.1% vs. 67.8% on HumanEval as reported by Meta in the CodeLLaMA blog)."

To be fair, they do compare to it in the main body of the blog. It's just probably misleading to compare to CodeLLaMA on non coding benchmarks.

jjgoon Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself?

Interesting, that doesn't really work for me as I sometimes use it to OCR sensitive stuff from scanned documents, and it wouldn't work offline. I found tesseract to work pretty reliably for my use and only fail when scanning non-ASCII characters.

Not the original poster, but this (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27177609) how I do the same thing

Not op, but I wrote something equivalent based on a linux script that I found [1]. Here's the mac version of the script [2]. You need tesseract [3] installed for the OCR. For launching it using a keyboard shortcut I use a hammerspoon [4]. Example of how I bind it [5]
