Id|le browser AI creature classifier released
Understand this story
nico released Id|le: a "small AI creature" project that runs in the browser, turning the text classification pipeline into classifier creatures in a data-lab setting. Each processing stage corresponds to a classifier creature, driven by real text classifiers provided by Jeffy; the filter handles sorting, the router categorizes by label, the tagger sends uncertain messages for review, and one message is processed every 4 seconds. The initial three classifiers—spam, support tickets, and sentiment—can run directly locally in the browser after a one-time 23.7 MB download; choosing other classification heads requires requesting Jeffy's server.

- Hacker News AIShow HN: Id|le, little AI-creatures living in the browser (story mode)
A Show HN project presents "Id|le," little AI-creatures living in the browser in a story mode, where messages arrive at an inbox and each stage is a classifier creature built from a real text classifier from Jeffy. The three starting classifiers (spam, support tickets, mood) run in the browser after a one-time 23.7 MB download, while any other chosen head is queried on Jeffy's server. A filter drops matches into its own bin, a router sorts into a bin per label and sends uncertain items to review, and a tagger stamps a label and passes it on, with one message every 4 seconds.
