Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

It's done by software using an LLM, not just a raw LLM. They do only work with text, but you can get it to output the text "get_weather(mylocation)", and instead of just outputting that directly to the user, the software running on top of the LLM runs a " get_weather" function that calls some weather API. The result of that function is then output to the user.
Any time you see an "AI" taking "actions", this is what happens in the background for every action.
^ exactly that.
Also, I suspect that's the reason for Claude famously telling everyone to "go to bed" all the time. That bastich cannot run time and date as a background check reliably...it wings it based on start of conversation. Bitch I type a lot and fast....stop tellling me to go to bed at 9pm.
I expect it will get patched soon.
An endearing quirk....but it exposes the wiring if you know. Still, doesn't make the trick any less impressive when it hits.
