Hey! I've been really intrigued about small, on device models recently. This project was to explore that a small base model running in the browser as a Co Pilot-like writing assistant. You can check out the demo here: smol-complete.vercel.app. Smal, on device models have a lot of advantages with low latency, cost, privacy (a big one), and being task specific. The demo will definitely repeat itself and hallucinate sometimes, but let me know what you think!

Hi HN, During the last weeks, I've been working to create a system that allows you to convert prompts into chatbots and mini apps on platforms that everyone uses on a daily basis. The first integrated platform is Telegram: Telegram is a powerful platform with many integrations and features like bots, apps, games and even payments. So I thought it would be nice to make it easier to create these apps. I created a bot http://t.me/PlutonicDevBot. Workflow is pretty simple: create or choose an existing bot and send a text/voice message about what to create just like you prompt…

Hi HN - Marcello and Vaibhav here. We built smolmodels to experiment with using LLMs for ML development. It's a fully open-source library that generates complete model training and inference code from natural language descriptions. It combines graph search with LLM code generation to find a model that gives as good predictions as possible. The core idea is that LLMs are overkill for a lot of predictive tasks. Smolmodels automates the trial-and-error process of finding the right model architecture and training approach, letting you build small, specialised models. You can either provide your…

Today we’re releasing a full AI app builder in Srcbook. We released our TypeScript notebook a few months ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41291700) and the response was encouraging, but we kept hearing that people wanted to build interactive apps. Today we are releasing just that. You can think of it as an open-source and local version of vercel’s v0. We actually think of it as something in between an IDE and that, because we believe the code matters and don’t shy away from that: you can view and edit the code in a full editor, but prompt your way forward if that's…

Hi HN, I built Prompt Builder (https://www.promptbuilder.space/) because I was frustrated managing complex AI prompts in plain text boxes. The core idea: instead of one giant textarea, you compose prompts from draggable, reorderable blocks. Each block can have its own XML/custom tags, visibility toggles (so you can A/B test sections), and duplicates. Key technical details: - Live compiled preview: the right pane shows the exact string being sent, updating as you drag/toggle blocks - Dynamic variables: define {{var_name}} once, use across blocks, change in one…
