Ask HN: Looking for a Book

2•phoenixhaber•4mo ago

I'm looking for a book that features a girl that has a dragon tattoo on her arm and I know for a fact that it exists and I read it relatively recently.

It's pre the 2005 book by Stieg Larsson and google says that it doesn't exist

What is the book?

What an interesting experiment to see if LLMs make better search engines (they do, more or less). I found Last dragon chronicles by d’Lacey, Dragons eye by Steer, and Dragonfly in Amber by Gabaldon. There are some details about the characters which have the tattoos, but I am not sure how accurate those details are. There’s also Dragons daughter by McLaughlin.

Specifically it has to be within the text and not the title itself.

Glad you found it, I enjoyed watching the LLM think through its process of finding the right candidates. It was a good exercise in understanding reasoning.

To be specific the AI Mode that Google rolled out a few weeks ago is head and shoulders better than the summaries they had before. If you write a query like “I am looking for a paper that came to a certain conclusion” for something I remember seeing in the last few years it has 100% hit rate in the top 3 results so far.

That’s interesting, and good to know. I used a tool I have on my machine which shows me how a given model is reasoning in real time via a developer view.
