Gemini's proprietary license is a deal-breaker. It's not just about performanceโ€”it's about freedom. Google's terms actively restrict libre use, while models like QwQ 32B and DeepSeek v3 (when properly licensed) respect user rights. Never conflate ethically-licensed AI with corporate traps that forbid modification, redistribution, or independent use.

One of the biggest challenges I've been facing since I started developing [๐๐๐Ÿ๐ˆ๐ญ๐ƒ๐จ๐ฐ๐ง](https://github.com/AstraBert/PdfItDown) was handling correctly the conversion of files like Excel sheets and CSVs: table conversion was bad and messy, almost unusable for downstream tasks๐Ÿซฃ

That's why today I'm excited to introduce ๐ซ๐ž๐š๐๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ, the new feature of PdfItDown v1.4.0!๐ŸŽ‰

With ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด, you can choose among three (for now๐Ÿ‘€) flavors of text extraction and conversion to PDF:

- ๐——๐—ผ๐—ฐ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด, which does a fantastic work with presentations, spreadsheets and word documents๐Ÿฆ†

- ๐—Ÿ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐—ฒ by LlamaIndex, suitable for more complex and articulated documents, with mixture of texts, images and tables๐Ÿฆ™

- ๐— ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐—œ๐˜๐——๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ป by Microsoft, not the best at handling highly structured documents, by extremly flexible in terms of input file format (it can even convert XML, JSON and ZIP files!)โœ’๏ธ

You can use this new feature in your python scripts (check the attached code snippet!๐Ÿ˜‰) and in the command line interface as well!๐Ÿ

Have fun and don't forget to star the repo on GitHub โžก๏ธ https://github.com/AstraBert/PdfItDown

Forget everything you know about transcription models - NVIDIA's parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v2 changed the game for me!

Just tested it with Steve Jobs' Stanford speech and was speechless (pun intended). The video isnโ€™t sped up.

3 things that floored me:
- Transcription took just 10 seconds for a 15-min file
- Got a CSV with perfect timestamps, punctuation & capitalization
- Stunning accuracy (correctly captured "Reed College" and other specifics)

NVIDIA also released a demo where you can click any transcribed segment to play it instantly.

The improvement is significant: number 1 on the ASR Leaderboard, 6% error rate (best in class) with complete commercial freedom (cc-by-4.0 license).

Time to update those Whisper pipelines! H/t @Steveeeeeeen for the finding!

I've created a new dataset using the Algorithm of Thoughts architecture proposed by Sel et al. (2023) in a reasoning context. (paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2308.10379)

The dataset simulates the discovery phase of a fictitious VC firm called Reasoned Capital and, once expanded, can be used to create models which are able to make complex, subjective financial decisions based on different criteria.

The generation process encourages recursive problem-solving in increasingly complex prompts to encourage models to assess and reevaluate the conclusions and generated opinions of upstream models. Pretty neat stuff, and I'm not aware of this architecture being used in a reasoning context anywhere else.

๐Ÿš€ Building Better Evaluations: 32K Image Annotations Now Available

Today, we're releasing an expanded version: 32K images annotated with 3.7M responses from over 300K individuals which was completed in under two weeks using the Rapidata Python API.

Rapidata/text-2-image-Rich-Human-Feedback-32k

A few months ago, we published one of our most liked dataset with 13K images based on the @data-is-better-together 's dataset, following Google's research on "Rich Human Feedback for Text-to-Image Generation" (https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.10240). It collected over 1.5M responses from 150K+ participants.

Rapidata/text-2-image-Rich-Human-Feedback

In the examples below, users highlighted words from prompts that were not correctly depicted in the generated images. Higher word scores indicate more frequent issues. If an image captured the prompt accurately, users could select [No_mistakes].

We're continuing to work on large-scale human feedback and model evaluation. If you're working on related research and need large, high-quality annotations, feel free to get in touch: [email protected].
