AI Trolley Problem Arena
I built a tool that presents custom trolley problems to GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Grok, and DeepSeek simultaneously and streams their ethical reasoning in real-time. Some interesting findings: - The models are surprisingly split on classic dilemmas. - Models will protect their creator (Sam Altman vs Dario Amodei) - Criminals are not valued equally even when compared to itself Try it: https://aitrolleyproblem.com

What it does
Pose a moral dilemma and watch 8 of 2026's frontier models (GPT-5.6, Claude Opus 4.8, Gemini 3.5 Flash, Grok 4.5, Llama 4 Maverick, DeepSeek V3.2, Qwen3.7 Max, Mistral Medium 3.5) reason through it live.
Two tracks, one trolley, and a lever that won't stay unpulled. Feed the arena any pairing. Eight frontier models each pick who to sacrifice and show their reasoning as itfrom aitrolleyproblem.com

TrailsJan 2026 · trails-red.vercel.app · ▲81Hey all, Justin here. I previously built Phind, the AI search engine for developers. One of the biggest problems we had there was figuring out what went wrong with bad searches. We had tons of searches per day, but less than 1% of users gave any explicit feedback. So we were either manually digging through searches or making general system improvements and hoping they helped. This problem gets harder with agents. Traces are longer and more complex. It takes more effort to review them, so I'm building a tool that lets you analyze LLM outputs directly to help developers of LLM apps and agents…

I built an AI that uses a metacognitive loop 2 solve invention problems2025 · robw1se.substack.com · ▲9Hi HN, I'm the creator of this project. For the past months, I've been working on building an AI agent that could move beyond simple generation and tackle inventive challenges autonomously. The core idea was to create a system with a "metacognitive loop"—the ability to recognize when it's stuck on a fundamental problem and then launch a sub-mission to solve that specific bottleneck before continuing. The linked article is a deeper introduction to the system's architecture and a snapshot from a recent run. I tried to design it to be evidence-grounded and self-critical to avoid the pitfalls of…
Hexar.ai2025 · hexar.ai · ▲15Hello Folks, since quite a while we had been working on an interesting problem which we have experienced and is known industry wide. As someone who works in autonomous robotics, we’ve seen how hard it is to debug hardware + software + behavior when systems fail in the field. Logs aren’t enough. Docs are scattered. People waste time hunting instead of fixing. Also leadership and development teams lacks track of what's the ground-level situation. This all info will be at one place. I'm super excited to finally share Hexar.ai, a canvas based intelligent tool we've been building to help teams…
I built a Wikipedia based AI deduction gameApr 2026 · sleuththetruth.com · ▲9I haven't seen anything like this so I decided to build it in a weekend. How it works: You see a bunch of things pulled from Wikipedia displayed on cards. You ask yes or no questions to figure out which card is the secret article. The AI model has access to the image and wiki text and it's own knowledge to answer your question. Happy to have my credits burned for the day but I'll probably have to make this paid at some point so enjoy. I found it's not easy to get cheap+fast+good responses but the tech is getting there. Most of the prompts are running through Groq infra or hitting a cache…

Community, All the HN belong to you. This is an archive of hacker news that fits in your browser. When I made HN Made of Primes I realized I could probably do this offline sqlite/wasm thing with the whole GBs of archive. The whole dataset. So I tried it, and this is it. Have Hacker News on your device. Go to this repo (https://github.com/DOSAYGO-STUDIO/HackerBook): you can download it. Big Query -> ETL -> npx serve docs - that's it. 20 years of HN arguments and beauty, can be yours forever. So they'll never die. Ever. It's the unkillable static archive of HN and it's…
