Search San Francisco using natural language
Hey HN! We're Alex and Szymon from Bluesight (https://bluesight.ai/), where we're developing a foundation model for satellite data. We've created a demo to showcase the current capabilities of state-of-the-art models and identify areas for improvement. Our demo allows you to search for objects in San Francisco using natural language. You can look for things like Tesla cars, dry patches, boats, and more. Key features: - Search using text or by selecting an object from the image as a source ("aim" icon) - Toggle between object search (default) and tile search ("big" toggle,…

In plain words
Search San Francisco using natural language is a demo tool that lets users search satellite imagery of San Francisco by describing what they want to find. Users can enter text queries like "Tesla cars" or "boats," or select objects directly from images. The tool toggles between object and tile search modes, includes a map locator, and uses voting to refine results. It showcases capabilities of foundation models applied to satellite data.

I made a better Perplexity for developers2024 · devv.ai · ▲185Hi HN, I am Jiayuan, and I'm here to introduce a tool we've been building over the past few months: Devv (https://devv.ai). In simple terms, it is an AI-powered search engine specifically designed for developers. Now, you might ask, with so many AI search engines already available—Perplexity, You.com, Phind, and several open-source projects—why do we need another one? We all know that Generative Search Engines are built on RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)[1] combined with Large Language Models (LLMs). Most of the products mentioned above use indexes from general search engines…
