I made a movie recommendation system

Hi there, I'm a Systems Engineering student in my final year. I've started building projects just for fun. This time, I created a movie recommendation system called Altas Pelis, which finds movies similar to the ones you select based on plot, director, genres, and actors. It’s tailored specifically for Argentina (in Spanish), but by default, it displays its content in English. It was a lot of fun to build. I stored the embeddings in a .npy file, and that’s essentially how it recommends movies—by computing cosine similarity when you select a movie. Sometimes (I’m not sure why or when), the…

    Hey HN, thank you for being a part of the internet we love. We’re Arnav, Mo, Jeremy and we’re building an “Internet for-you page” that recommends blogs and essays based on your interests. Try it here (https://www.browserbuddy.com/)! We love to discover and learn from personal blogs, essays, and articles on the internet. But despite exciting advancements in language modeling, it’s felt harder to discover interesting links from real people. We believe there is untapped potential to use these language models as “curators” rather than “creators”. To explore this, we’re building a…

  • AI Movie Finder – I created a way to find movies by describing2025 · aimoviefinder.com · ▲10

    Hi Hacker News, I'm excited to share a project I've been passionately working on in my spare time: AI Movie Finder (https://www.aimoviefinder.com). The idea was born out of a simple, yet frequent, frustration: having a movie on the tip of my tongue but being unable to recall the title. All I could remember were fragments – a specific scene, a snippet of dialogue, the general plot, or even just the mood it evoked. Traditional search engines often fell short with these kinds of abstract queries. So, I decided to build a solution. AI Movie Finder uses a natural language processing…
