The first consumer AI that can make any type of phone call
Good morning HN, Today we’re launching a free public beta for Vibrato, a consumer AI assistant that makes phone calls for you. The phone calls can be simple, like making an appointment, to complex, like negotiating a lower utility bill. As far as I know, this is the first time consumers have had the ability to make general calls with AI. We’re launching with two major features: - a task library, where you can immediately have Vibrato perform a specific task that we’ve vetted, like making a doctor’s appointment or reducing your Comcast cable internet bill. - a GPT for ChatGPT (Plus…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Good morning HN, Today we’re launching a free public beta for Vibrato, a consumer AI assistant that makes phone calls for you. The phone calls can be simple, like making an appointment, to complex, like negotiating a lower utility bill. As far as I know, this is the first time consumers have had the ability to make general calls with AI. We’re launching with two major features: - a task library, where you can immediately have Vibrato perform a specific task that we’ve vetted, like making a doctor’s appointment or reducing your Comcast cable internet bill. - a GPT for ChatGPT (Plus subscription required), where you can chat with ChatGPT and define a completely custom phone call, beyond what we offer in our task library. For example, you can use this to make a phone call to a law office for legal advice. Vibrato is already wildly effective at managing your outgoing phone calls. I probably have the pain point more than most, but I’ve used it to: - Negotiate lower utilities bills - Refill prescriptions - Get updates on insurance claims - Call doctor’s offices A low latency voice app like this with this level of complex reasoning has only been possible for a few weeks, since the launch of GPT4 Turbo. So this is truly a milestone moment. Please check it out if you have a moment, and I’m happy to take on any feedback. Thanks, David [email protected]

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…

Hi HN! I’m proud to share that we have built a real 3rd party iMessage client for Android. We did it by reverse engineering the iMessage protocol and encryption system. It's available to download today (no waitlist): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beeper.ima and there's a technical writeup here: https://blog.beeper.com/p/how-beeper-mini-works. Unlike every other attempt to build an iMessage app for Android (including our first gen app), Beeper Mini does not use a Mac server relay in the cloud. The app connects directly to Apple…

Hey! I made Heynote entirely for my own use case. For many years, I always had an Emacs instance running with the scratch buffer open, even long after I had abandoned Emacs as my programming editor in favor of more recent IDE:s. The simplicity of having just one big scratch buffer appeals to me, but I still want to separate the different things I jot down somehow (without using tabs or similar). Previously, my solution was to insert a bunch of blank lines between the notes, but hitting C-A would still select the entire buffer. That's why I came up with the concept of "blocks", which turned…
