• We don’t even have NJ on there, but it’s another state we haven’t visited, so we will stop somewhere along the way between Philly and Delaware (if you have any recommendations).

    Any recommendations in those areas not to be missed (or is a tourist trap and we should skip it)?

    Thanks so much!

    – **Applebot**: Plays a key role in indexing web content for Siri and Safari, refining Apple’s AI capabilities.

    – **Bytespider**: Tasked with mining data for Doubao, a ChatGPT-style assistant, it gathers training info across the web.

    – **Meta-ExternalAgent** and **Google-Extended**: These potent crawlers are central to training LLaMA, Meta AI, and Google’s Bard/Gemini—bringing competitive intelligence into the AI arena.

    ### Managing Web Crawlers

    Running a website? You have some say in whether these crawlers visit your domain. Using `robots.txt` files allows you to permit or block certain bots—a handy tool for preserving bandwidth or safeguarding sensitive data.

    ### Wrapping Up

    AI search crawlers are unseen warriors in the quest for knowledge and technology integration. They not only enrich AI models but also ensure our digital interactions remain relevant and insightful. Understanding these crawlers isn’t just for techies—it’s crucial for anyone aiming to optimize their web presence or comprehend the digital landscape better. Batten down the hatches, and let these digital foragers do their magic!

  • **Gas is the fuel that powers Ethereum.**

    Each smart contract interaction, NFT mint, staking, DEX trade, and stablecoin transfer, it all consumes gas.

    So, this chart doesn’t just measure activity. It reflects real usage, demand, and adoption.

    **Gas usage has been steadily rising since Ethereum launched in 2015.**
    From just a few million gas/ per day in early years → To over **149 billion** now.

    And, as we see this growth is sustained and organic.

    **This milestone shows one thing clearly:**
    Ethereum is thriving. More apps, more users, more real-world value flowing onchain.

    And this record? It’s just the beginning of a seamless journey.

  • I have some doubts that needs clarification and explanation and hence I am asking for help.

    These days LLMs are very efficient to mine textual unstructured data and create an output in the format as asked for. On the other hand we have NLP libraries and machine learning libraries to build up text mining tasks.

    So my question is: are LLMs going to replace NLP+ML libraries? if not so then what are the use cases suitable for LLMs and what are suitable for using NLP+ML libraries?
