Orion — Global Risk Intelligence
Know what’s happening anywhere before you get there.
What it does
What if you could see the risks of any place before you go there? Orion Global Pulse isn’t news — it’s situational awareness. It shows crime, pollution, conflicts, disasters, and seasonal risks on one interactive world map so you never travel unaware.

Hey HN! We’re excited to share Orion [1] — our new visual agent that sees, reasons, and acts across images, videos, and documents. Frontier VLMs (GPT, Claude, Gemini) can describe what they see, but they can’t reliably act on visual inputs. Ask them to detect objects, segment images, or chain visual steps — they’ll fail in surprisingly inconsistent ways. High-res images collapse to ~1024px. And the visual AI ecosystem is fragmented across separate APIs for image understanding, OCR, image-gen, video-gen, etc. We built Orion to fix this. Orion combines VLM reasoning with reliable…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
