But then you’re primarily extracting text, which you don’t need LLMs for. OCR tools will do the job much cheaper and more effective.

Honestly I don’t really understand what’s wrong about calling them that, I do prefer calling them compositors as well, but to the untrained eye window manager is much more clear, and it’s the existential goal of a compositor anyway (in most cases at least). Just because a spec sheet doesn’t call a game engine a 3D renderer doesn’t mean a game engine is not a 3D renderer, because unless it only renders 2D, it is also a 3D renderer, if you get what I mean.

Though you could argue that a compositor without a window manager is useless, thus a compositor implies the presence of a window manager.

Sway and River both use wm as part of their URL: swaywm (see https://swaywm.org/) and riverwm (see https://github.com/riverwm). Calling them only one or the other is wrong, they’re both compositors & window managers.

That’s some really good music. Apart from the theme.

Yeah, apart from the fact that I imagine that people who need alt text don’t appreciate LLM output. It‘s very boring. It’s either extremely technical and ice-cold or so cringe that you have to stop reading. Just what I think.

At least for me, if I realize that I’m reading an AI blog article or AI generated text in some other form, I don’t read it.

In my opinion, no. It has to be heavily curated. You’re not saving yourself a lot of work if you have to read it word by word (and probably correct stuff) anyway.

I think just one very short sentence describing what’s on there (it doesn’t have to be detailed) is a lot better than whatever an LLM will give you.
