We polled 2,122 Americans on AI and regulation, and built a visualizer
We are researchers from Johns Hopkins University who wanted to measure American attitudes toward specific AI regulations. So we ran a poll, with SurveyUSA as our partner, to collect the data from a nationally representative sample, and we built a data-explorer to share it. We included questions about where people trust or do not trust AI, and how they expect AI to alter power, inequality, and the meaningfulness of work. There is also a quiz to try, if (a) you want to locate your own AI attitudes relative to the population, or (b) if you're just one of those people who love taking quizzes.…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
We are researchers from Johns Hopkins University who wanted to measure American attitudes toward specific AI regulations. So we ran a poll, with SurveyUSA as our partner, to collect the data from a nationally representative sample, and we built a data-explorer to share it. We included questions about where people trust or do not trust AI, and how they expect AI to alter power, inequality, and the meaningfulness of work. There is also a quiz to try, if (a) you want to locate your own AI attitudes relative to the population, or (b) if you're just one of those people who love taking quizzes. The data explorer on the site lets you break down the results by age, political identity, and other demographics. And the data and the questionnaire are downloadable, so you can break down the results any way you prefer. Happy to say more about the methods and motivation.

Hey HN, This is a Show HN (poorly) disguised as an Ask HN. I'm launching https://www.parliant.ai, a survey tool that rethinks how surveys are created and answered. Instead of building forms, the survey creator just writes what they want to learn and AI takes it from there, chatting with respondents to get meaningful answers. To show how it works, I’ve created a short demo survey with the question in the title. The idea is for you to try it out and see the respondent experience, which is really the core of the innovation. I’d love to get your answers and your feedback. The survey is…

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…

Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
