Lately I've felt exhausted due to the deluge of AI/GPT posts on hacker news, and have seen similar grumblings. I threw together this frontend that filters out anything with the phrases AI, LLM, GPT, or LLaMa for use until the hype dies down a bit. Before anyone asks, yes I did try to use ChatGPT to help, and while the code it provided was helpful, it needed some heavy bug-fixing. Edit: One other note I forgot to mention. The favicon is generated by Stable Diffusion, I asked it to generate an "Aritificial Intelligence Favicon", and then I added the red circle with line through it.

Hey HN! When I started looking into LLMs and agents for software development and introducing them at work, I quickly realised that a person new to the topic faces a real barrage: - all the hype (AGI, engineers getting replaced by AI etc.) - conflicting opinions in virtually every discussion—for every person saying they’ve 10x-ed their productivity, there is a comment decrying LLMs as an utter failure - a lot of jargon (MoE, MCP, RAG, distillation, quantisation etc. etc.) - a profusion of models, IDEs/IDE extensions, CLI agents, other tools etc. Sorting through all of this can be quite…

Hey HN! A few months ago we shared our AI dataset generator as an open source repo, and the response was incredible (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44388093). We got requests from folks who wanted to use it without the hosting overhead, so we created both options: a hosted version (https://www.metabase.com/ai-data-generator for instant use and the source code fully open (https://github.com/metabase/dataset-generator) for anyone who wants to self-host or contribute. Looking forward to seeing how you use it and what you build on top of…

Since ChatGPT became popular, I've been wondering: what would an LLM-powered app that's not chat-centric look like ? Would an encyclopedia that's almost entirely generated on-the-fly be any good? Can we use AI hyper links to replace most of the typing? Since I haven't found anything close to what I had in mind, I decided to give it a try and see for myself. WikiGen.ai is a website that's almost entirely generated by AI, with a few contextual tools to assist users with readability levels, explanations, and fact checking. (Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG0CpSE0cFI) I…

I've spent weeks curating technical implementation details of how companies are actually deploying LLMs and Generative AI in production. The database now contains over 300 case studies with detailed technical summaries (230,000+ words) focusing exclusively on architectural decisions, deployment patterns, and real engineering challenges. Key features: * Each case study is technically focused - no marketing fluff * 150+ entries from technical conference talks and panels (saving you 100+ hours of video watching) * Sophisticated filtering by technical stack, RAG implementations, monitoring…

I’ve been building LLM tooling for a small VC fund and found myself explaining the same mental model over and over to non-technical people around me: how a stateless LLM becomes a chatbot, how tool use works, what an agent is mechanically, and why context windows shape all of it. I never found a guide that covered that full chain at the level I wanted, so I wrote one. It’s nine short chapters, each building on the last. Deliberately simplified: the goal is a useful mental model, not a textbook. Feedback, corrections, and contributions welcome: github.com/ymyke/aiaiai

Hello! Introducing geniusrise, an agent framework and component ecosystem for building AI agent networks that are as flexible as your team. landing page: https://geniusrise.ai (fancy but useless) docs: https://docs.geniusrise.ai (please check this out) github: https://github.com/geniusrise (for dear devs) ## Thought process Since the ChatGPT disruption, I've been pondering on what the tooling layer is going to look like for building LLM-interfacing agents. Saw a plethora of tools coming out as we witness here every week. I'd broadly categorize them into the…

Excited to share a project I’ve been building for months! Would love to receive honest feedback :) My motivation: AI is clearly going to be the interface for data. But earlier attempts (text-to-SQL, etc.) fell short — they treated it like magic. The space has matured: teams now realize that AI + data needs structure, context, and rules. So I built a product to help teams deliver “chat with data” solutions fast with full control and observability (agent tracing, quality scores, etc) — am I wrong? The product allows you to connect any LLM to any data source with centralized context…

I've been running into docs and chats that read as authored by humans but turn out to be pasted from GenAI. All well-intentioned, but inefficient and kinda awkward to sort out. Signaling with your own words is better, but I made some cheap semantic URLs to maybe help: "This post is authorial.fyi" - i.e. I stand behind each part, whether or not GenAI was used "The plan above is ai.delegated.fyi" - i.e. I believe this is worthwhile overall, but I wasn't personally intentional about each part Hope is to open conversations in this GenAI moment. Casually - complementary to larger initiatives.…
