New on the CUNY AI Lab blog: we run nearly all of our tools on open-weight models. Here’s why. (Spoiler alert: they are more transparent, cost a fraction of the proprietary flagship models, and have all but closed the capability gap.) ailab.gc.cuny.edu/blog/running...

Running the CUNY AI Lab on Open Weights - CUNY AI Lab

Why the CUNY AI Lab runs nearly all of its tools on open-weight models — what open weights are, what frontier models cost to run, and how open models have closed the capability gap.

I wish more institutions would dedicate resources to home-grown critical AI experimentation, rather than ceding control and precious dollars to our tech overloads. @cunyailab.bsky.social is a model of how to do this! #ACH2026

I took 23 unpublished poems I wrote in the early/mid-twenty-tens, while commuting between New York, Seattle, and Torino, and turned them into an e-chapbook that is part late juvenilia, part creative archive, part interface poetics. Best on Chrome/Firefox. ephemera.stefanomorello.com

Spent way too long manually converting your bibliographies into Zotero entries? Built this 😅 It saved me hours, maybe it'll help you too (requires OpenRouter API key) stefanomorello.com/tools/biblio...

Last fall, while indexing the NOFX book, I built a small tool that takes a term list and a PDF and returns a clean index. I’ve now wrapped it in a zero-retention web app for non-Python folks. Try it: veritas44.pythonanywhere.com Code: github.com/smorello87/b...
