Simon Willison announces the release of the llm-openai-decisions 0.1a0 plugin, which interfaces with OpenAI’s new Jev-style Decisions API. The plugin, inspired by llm-typesafe, supports image and text input and offers the same three question types (yes/no, choices, scores) as Jev, with pricing at 10¢ per million input tokens. Installation is simple via `llm install llm-openai-decisions`, and an example query demonstrates image-based evaluation.
Release: llm-gemini 0. 33 It's been a while since the last llm-gemini release.
Quick Study is a tool that lets users open a photo and quickly generate a painted version of it using a canvas element and a simulated paintbrush. The process relies on Sobel edge detection and requires no external libraries beyond Google Fonts. It builds on previous experiments that used Claude Fable to create watercolor illustrations with P5.js.
The article describes a test of the new Python 3.15 profiler using GPT-6 Astra Extra High in Codex to run it against a web-edit application from PyPI. It includes a flame graph and source heatmap generated from this profiling effort. The author emphasizes the use of these visual tools to analyze the performance of the web-edit app.
The release of llm 0.37 introduces numerous new features and fixes accumulated over two months, including new GPT-6.1 models, an openai endpoint add command, and a cheaper default model (gpt-6-luna). It enhances embedding support for varied content types and incorporates many AI‑assisted pull requests from multiple authors. The update also highlights the project’s efficient handling of AI‑generated contributions, aided by triage tools like Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra.
Simon Willison demonstrates how to use Blender with coding agents on macOS by installing the full Mac application from blender.org and issuing prompts to ChatGPT Codex. He shows a step-by-step example where the agent renders a scene of a pelican riding a bicycle, then adds background flair and improves the image. The resulting image is generated via Blender's Python API.
