Ask HN: Is anyone doing anything cool with tiny language models?

I mean anything in the 0.5B-3B range that's available on Ollama (for example). Have you built any cool tooling that uses these models as part of your work flow?

I had an LLM create a playlist for me.

I’m tired of the bad playlists I get from algorithms, so I made a specific playlist with an Llama2 based on several songs I like. I started with 50, removed any I didn’t like, and added more to fill in the spaces. The small models were pretty good at this. Now I have a decent fixed playlist. It does get “tired” after a few weeks and I need to add more to it. I’ve never been able to do this myself with more than a dozen songs.

Huh, interesting. For me that often dreamed up artist and songs.
