Amplified by Alive By Design

What it does

Amplified is a free guide for creatives who want to use AI without losing the thing that makes their work theirs. It is not a prompt list or technical manual. It is an honest look at the fears that keep creators from starting — sounding fake, losing their voice, not knowing the tools — and a practical framework for moving through them. Free, short, human, and built from a year of running an AI-powered creative studio in public.

Amplified is a free 40-page guide for creatives who want to use AI without losing the thing that makes their work theirs. Not a tutorial. Not a prompt list. An honest look at the eight fears that stop most creative people — and a practical framework for moving past each one. The machine does the work the human would skip. The human does the work no machine can. Free. Short. Honest.

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
