"You want to put AI on a smartphone?" — The Beginning of a Reckless Challenge The story of how TecAce's AI Supervision Team built the On-Device LLM Tester "Um… I'd like to automatically measure LLM performance on a smartphone." A brief silence fell over the meeting room. Our team was developing our own on-device AI chatbot.

Prompt-Based UI, Document, and Prototype Workflows: Transforming Design with AI
Design is no longer only something you make with a mouse. It is becoming something you shape through conversation with AI. Executive Summary: The Future of Design Conversational design tools like Claude Design are revolutionizing how we approach design. Work no longer begins with a blank canvas. Instead, a user describes their needs, and AI generates the first version. This initial output is then refined through conversation, comments, and direct edits. This shift has the pot


The AI Security Checklist for Small Businesses (Including self-diagnosis test)
You ask ChatGPT to draft an email. You hand Gemini a report to summarize. It feels like having a personal assistant who works only for you. You start to trust it. And that trust is exactly where the problem begins. AI is helpful. That is precisely why it’s dangerous. In 2023, three engineers at Samsung’s semiconductor division pasted source code, internal meeting notes, and hardware design data into ChatGPT three separate times over a single month. They were debugging. They w

From Filters to Feedback Loops: How Post-Monitoring Enables Safe LLM Operations (Includes research on the prompt pre-blocking methods of major LLMs)
Overview: Two Approaches to AI Safety To safely operate chatbots that utilize Large Language Models (LLMs), two primary strategies exist: pre-blocking and post-monitoring. Pre-blocking is a method that filters user prompts in advance or applies constraints at the input stage to block risky requests before they are processed by the model. In contrast, post-monitoring is an approach that supervises and audits the LLM's output in real-time or after the fact to prevent inappropri
