The D5 doesn't have built in GPS, and adding it requires an attachment. I don't know if the smartphone app works on that model, but it is from the same year as my D5600 which does support it. The app provides GPS but also drains the battery fast. I turned airplane mode on after the first dead battery.
If you use a regular smartphone in space (or technically in orbit for this argument), it’s probably not going to get a fix because GPS receivers are required to stop locating when reaching some speed to not be export controlled. And that speed is picked so people don’t build missiles, orbital speed will be higher.
ML driven is. LLM driven is still nascent, especially the idea that as large language models get more advanced, can they research and invest like a fund manager.
I haven't tried a local model in a while. I can only fit E4B in VRAM (8GB), but it's good enough that I can see it replacing Claude.ai for some things.
A system where people derive a mistaken sense of privacy seems more dangerous. AT is getting something in permissioned data that's closer to what people think they get on AP.
>> "On 8 January 2026, Z.ai held its initial public offering on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to become a listed company.[24][25][26] It is considered to be China's first major LLM company that went through an IPO.[26] In February 2026, JPMorgan Chase recommended to investors of purchasing stocks of the company alongside MiniMax.[27]"
This is an interface, not an LLM. Do they say which LLM they use? Many of these are interfaces to one of the big three model providers. Others run through OpenRouter to use one of the better open models, all of which have their own quirks.
Wide C2S and ActivityPods support would address most of what led to the creation of AT. Lacking that, they made AT.
The rest is revealed in the developer community. AT and AP followed similar timelines for the first year or so, then diverged.
The main thing I heard from AP devs is that it's hard even before dealing with Mastodon quirks for any meaningful connection to the AP network. AP's early developer energy looks like AT's now, except AT's has been sustained for years and is only growing.
AP hasn't even managed a second conference, and that's where all the big AT stuff started at its first one. For example: Streamplace was new and awkward to use last year. This year, it was the official streaming platform with three simultaneous streams and had integration with the official ticketing system. I can't even list all the AT platforms people used to coordinate, trade info, etc during the conference. None of them had to deal with a clunky API since it's all JSON in a standard format on your PDS through a standard interface.
Since this re-surfaced from the second chance queue, this is a good place to say they just announced the first and very important steps to an independent PLC directory: https://martianbase.net/@mackuba/116314877708269740
GPS might work out there though: https://www.nasa.gov/directorates/somd/space-communications-...
