PicPick – AI-powered photo curator using CLIP and face recognition
Hey HN! I built this after my wedding left me with 5,000 photos to sort through. The key insight: most photo sorting time is spent reviewing near-duplicates. Professional photographers shoot in bursts, so you get 10+ shots of the same moment. PicPick uses CLIP embeddings to cluster visually similar photos, then adds face recognition to keep groups coherent (so you don't mix up "bride with parents" and "bride with friends" just because they look similar). Tech stack: - CLIP for semantic similarity (not just perceptual hashing) - face_recognition (dlib) for person detection - DBSCAN clustering…

Build an open-source computer vision model in seconds using text2023 · usezeroshot.com · ▲64Hello HN! I want to share something me and a few friends have been working on for a while now — Zeroshot, a web tool that builds image classifiers using text-image models and autolabeling. What does this mean in practice? You can put together an image classifier in about 30 seconds that’s faster and more accurate than CLIP, but that you can deploy yourself however you’d like. It’s open source, commercially licensed, and doesn’t require you to pay anyone per API call. Here's a 2 minute video that shows it off: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4R1gtmM-Lo How/why does it…

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…
