The Louie Project

The AI doesn't answer. The 10-year-old writes the prompt.

What it does

Unlike typical AI learning apps where AI does the work for children, The Louie Project empowers kids to steer AI themselves. Built by a father and validated by his 4th-grade son using Claude AI, this 100% free platform features 6 interactive playgrounds and 1,953,125 word combinations across 7 languages. Zero ads, zero sign-up, zero payments, and zero tracking—designed purely for children to master prompts, inquiry, and critical thinking safely.

더 루이 프로젝트(The Louie Project)는 세계 최초의 광고 없는 AI 네이티브·프롬프트 기반 영어 학습 플랫폼입니다. 아이가 영어 낱말을 골라 문장을 만들면 그림과 소리가 0.1초 만에 따라옵니다. 광고도 결제도 없고, 유치원부터 9학년까지 무료 영어 문장 14,328개와 아홉 언어 뜻풀이가 함께 있습니다.

아이가 영어 낱말을 골라 문장을 만들면, 그림과 소리가 0.1초 만에 따라옵니다. 단어를 외우는 앱이 아니라, AI에게 시키는 힘 을 기르는 곳입니다. 광고도 결제도 없어서, 아이 혼자 두어도 안심입니다. A child picks English words to build a sentence, and the picture and the sound follow in a tenth of a second . This is not an app for memorising words — it is a place to grow the power to direct an AI . No ads, no payments, so a child can use it alone. 子どもが英語のことばをえらんで文をつくると、絵と音が 0.1秒 でついてきます。単語を暗記するアプリではなく、 AIに指示する力 を育てる場所です。広告も課金もないので、子ども一人でも安心です。 孩子挑选英语单词组成句子,图片和声音 0.1 秒 就跟上。这不是背单词的应用,而是培养 指挥 AI 的能力 的地方。没有广告也没有付费,孩子一个人用也放心。 Trẻ chọn các từ tiếng Anh để ghép thành câu, và hình ảnh cùng âm thanh xuất hiện trong một phần mười giây . Đây không phải ứng dụng học thuộc từ, mà là…from thelouieproject.org

  • 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…

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
