Hi, I'm a high school teacher from Australia and I've built what I'd like to think is a pretty nifty ChatGPT powered presentation tool for teachers. I'd love it if you could have a look at it and give me some of your feedback. I don't think there's much overlap with the HN crowd and school teachers, but I've been coming here for many years and thought I'd post here and see what you all think. Check it out if you have a minute and I'd be super happy to hear your feedback too. https://www.slidehero.ai/ You can jump in and have a play with the tool all you like ;) Cheers, Eli

OP here. This comment contains SPOILERS so try the dystopia simulator first before reading further! I built "WeChatGPT+" in December on top of GPT-3. It was pretty surreal when OpenAI released an actual product named "ChatGPT Plus" a few months after that. Then the Microsoft partnership was announced, Bing AI was released, and marketing materials were leaked indicating that Bing AI would start including advertisements within the chat responses. Reality imitates fiction, I guess. Today - literally a few hours ago - OpenAI announced public ChatGPT API with 10% the cost of GPT-3. I immediately…

This is SpatialRead, a non-linear research paper reading tool that is truly yours. I tried all the "Chat with PDF" apps. They're useful, but I always felt... trapped. My research process isn't a single, linear chat log. It's a branching, messy, and visual process of connecting ideas. I'd get a great explanation from an AI, but it would just get lost in the chat history. I was still stuck copy-pasting insights into a separate app. Not to mention the subscription lock-ins. I built SpatialRead to fix this. It’s built on a simple idea: Your research tool should work like your brain, not like a…

The first ever AI peer reviewed research article just got approved. It’s kinda crazy how advanced AI have come to replace researchers. I've just been using Deep Research on ChatGPT and Perplexity a lot to write and research complex technical reports for my boss. He loves the reports and it has decreased my workload a ton but I still have some frustrations with it. None of them provide an API that gets me the same quality of output you would with the applications. I wanted something with more control on the LLMs, swappable with the reasoning new models that came out. Not just prompt →…

Hi HN, Would love your thoughts on Open Paper Digest. It’s a mobile feed that let’s you “doomscroll” through summaries of popular papers that were published recently. Backstory There’s a combination of factors lead me to build this: 1. Quality of content social media apps has decreased, but I still notice that it is harder than ever for me to stay away from these apps. 2. I’ve been saying for a while now that I should start reading papers to keep up with what’s going on in AI-world. Initially, I set out to build something solely for point 2. This version was more search-focussed, and…

I got tired of Claude being wicked smart but only being able to access out-of-date information that isn't super pertinent to my research. So I'm building a way to give everything from Claude Code to the base Opus models access to your favorite tweets, video transcripts, research articles and more. This is a solid v0.1 for ScrollWise AI. I'll be working hard on PDF uploads, YouTube video transcript extraction and more coming up next. The ultimate goal is to make it work in a browser extension so you can give Claude, Gemini, and Chat GPT access to your documents on their sites, and so you can…

Hey everyone, DNDGenerate is my little adventure into the world of AI and D&D. I wanted to learn more about using ChatGpt to build software and about the openai apis. When I saw how much fun my 9-year-old was having, creating his own D&D worlds. That got me thinking – why not make a tool that uses ChatGPT to help build cool D&D campaigns? It's been a blast mixing my love for tech and D&D. I showed this at our latest dnd game, and my fellow party members seemed to like the results, so I thought I'd share it here as well.

Hi HN, we’re building deriveit.org, the website where you can learn any topic, quickly. On our website, you pay to ask any physics, computer science, or math question, and our community competes to give you the best explanation (for a cash reward). Right now, resources with high quality content are a time drain (papers, textbooks, and courses). We think that material is typically written in an unnecessarily hard-to-read way, but that there are tons of people who are passionate about explaining it well to others. We want to give the world access to those people, and remove barriers for them…

Hey hackers, the world needs more AI researchers with good taste, and hardcore software folks have some of the best. Many software friends mentioned they learn better from implementations than from papers, but existing open-source examples rarely go beyond basic nanoGPT-level demos. To help bridge that gap, I spent the last two months full-time reimplementing and open-sourcing a self-contained implementation of every major modern deep learning technique from scratch. The result is beyond-nanoGPT, containing 20k+ lines of handcrafted, minimal, and extensively annotated PyTorch code. I'd love…

Now that Wikipedia has banned AI generated articles. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Writing_articles_wit... I wanted to try and see if it was possible to get somewhat decent engine based on signs of AI writing from wikipedia themselves. It runs entirely in the browser via WASM. Added instructions to further add more ways to figure out as we find out more about LLMs. Would love feedback!!, especially: - cases where it completely fails - patterns you think are stronger indicators - whether this approach is even worth pursuing vs proper ML models, considering this…
