Opper AI▲229Hey HN! After the Car Wash Test post got quite a big discussion going (400+ comments, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47128138), I spent the past few weeks building a tool so anyone can run these kinds of questions and get structured results. No signup and free to use. You type a question, define answer options, pick up to 50 models at a time from a pool of 200+, and they all answer independently under identical conditions. No system prompt, structured output, same setup for every model. You can also run a debate round where models see each other's reasoning and get a…

I have been working on making WebRTC + Embedded Devices easier for a few years. This is a hackathon project that pulled some of that together. I hope others build on it/it inspires them to play with hardware. I worked on it with two other people and I had a lot of fun with some of the ideas that came out of it. * Extendable/hackable - I tried to keep the code as simple as possible so others can fork/modify easily. * Communicate with light. With function calling it changes the light bulb, so it can match your mood or feelings. * Populate info from clients you control. I wanted…

We've recently made our product, ozma.io, open-source. It's a CRM/ERP platform for building enterprise systems. We believe that AI will soon handle implementing most of the boilerplate and UIs in the specialized business software. Just look at what lovable.dev does today! Soon products which make creating business software easier for developers will become obsolete, or transform into "libraries" to be used by AIs. We are losing this race, so we go the second route — publish everything and go on building other products on top of it. GitHub repo URL:…

PAI▲9Hi HN! I've been spending the past month on PAI, a Linux-esque harness for a personal assistant AI for your Mac. Instead of giving a chatbot a bunch of tools, I wanted to just drop the LLM into a terminal and see how it'd fare. I've been using it to manage my calendar, 5+ email accounts, and engaging with / responding to people in a timely manner (casus belli for this entire project). After seeing how other always-on assistants were designed, I thought the Unix / Linux philosophy of system design could be applied to AI harnesses, and I wanted to experiment with how it'd hold up…

Oumi▲24Since yesterday, I've created a dataset out of a few docs I had (hackathon organization instructions) and then started fine tuning qwen 3.5. So it only took a few hours! I'm impressed by the ease of use - it's a chatbot and even if you don't have a lot of experience you can follow steps. Though don't want to undermine it, I'm sure could be a great fit for serious labs too.
