Video.bot (YC S20) – Like a chatbot, but with video-based interface

Hi HN, Daniel here. I've just applied video.bot (http://video.bot/olivia) to YC S20. Chatbots have been around for 30 years, but there's been zero interface evolution to date. video.bot is asking people to rethink chatbots. Imagine them with a rich interface, like in personalized videos, but with interactions, like in a game. That's what we're calling video.bot: bots with visual appealing that create 1 on 1 visual conversations on the fly AT SCALE. Top Banks, Telecoms, Pharmas, etc. are using video.bot to make job offers, onboard new employees or customers, help patients…

Top Banks, Telecoms, Pharmas, etc. are using video.bot to make job offers, onboard new employees or customers, help patients / doctors, recommend investments, etc.. Check out a demo and have a personalized experience with Olívia: http://video.bot/olivia 1. Choose to connect with Olívia 2. Allow her to get your name and photo (you can skip this part and watch it with my own data if you prefer) 3. Enjoy a personalized experience Please let me know what you think and if you have any questions.

  • I trained a 125M model to autocomplete piano on-device▲598

    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.

  • Needle2: 14MB agentic LLM for phones, wearables, smart home and robots▲537

    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…
