I absolutely loved @holnburger.bsky.socialโs presentation of his tool crowdbucket.io!
What a well-designed service to have LLM topic modeling results validated by humans in a convenient and fun wayโฆlike swiping on Tinder.
Will definitely use it for my historical gossip!

Forgot to mention: there are now also other #rstats packages that connect to Ollama like ellmar, tidyllm, ollamar. I still think ours works best for annotation and other tasks, but you might like the syntax or approach of something else more...
