    Hey, just wanted to share with you guys and app that I built and deployed in a day with Lovable. So, as a founder I always wanted to have an advisor but my budget would always be less, then on the other hand hand I had Paul's essays on Startup Advice, which I never read because I was busy building stuff. Hence, I built this product which comes into a sweet spot of both at the same time being more reasonable and capable than the alternative. ps: it's running on a reasoning model and tbh I've been able to gather pretty good insights from it. Note to PG: If you're seeing this. I'm your big fan.…

    Hi hacker news, We’re a former PM and software engineer from Robinhood who decide to start an investment bank for startups. In 2023, we had just shut down our previous YC-backed startup Psychic (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36032081). We were one of many startups building generative AI infrastructure long before it had become apparent what the applications were going to be, and it turns out the bet we made was wrong. This might sound familiar to anyone who’s been through the web3 hype cycle, but it was a big learning for us. Around the same time, we noticed a lot of…

    I've been working on a platform that uses LLMs to turn any random idea into 2-3 minute episodes - one of the newer ones is JARS Tank, where you can pitch inventions to a panel of AI investors. Would love to hear your thoughts!

    I've built a job platform for technical roles called "Cracked Engineers". If you want to land a job with some of the world's best AI/tech startups - my goal is to make this the go-to place for that. YouTube walk-through can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmuIOdES7mQ A huge thank you to Weaviate (Bob van Luijt & team), Unsloth AI (Daniel Han & Mike), OpenPipe (David Corbitt), Julius AI (Rahul Sonwalkar), Jimini AI (Luis F Voloch) for using the platform while in beta and posting first paid posts. So, why did I build it? Well, over the past period a lot of…

    Hey HN! Thank you for all the support and feedback on my original submission 2 months ago. I've been improving the backend using a MCTS/AlphaZero approach and it's currently producing much better results. My long term goal is to allow users to manage multiple projects, deployed autonomously, both from scratch and by making continual updates all prompted with natural language. The cost of each project has been lowered to $9 as performance with smaller models has improved (I migrated from Claude-3-Opus to gemini-1.5-flash). Thanks for checking it out!
