I think the README could use a few real use-case examples. I understand it in an abstract sense, but not sure I understand the benefit vs plain-text communication, besides saving on token spend.

I'm going to be pedantic and note that iOS and Android both have the capability security model for their apps. And totally agree that instead of reinventing the wheel here, we should just lift from how operating systems work, for two r

You can market products that people need. A big part of this is explaining and educating someone about what your product does, another part is just getting the word out there. Every website homepage is more-or-less a marketing page. If no o

What kinds of data are you working on? Coding? Something else? I've been curious how much these AI models look for more niche coding language expertise, and what other knowledge frontiers they're focusing on (like law, medical, fi

Check out Org-Roam: https://www.orgroam.com/ It has some Obsidian-like features inside Org Mode. So, if you're looking for an easier-to-use UI, it's not it, but if you're looking for Obsidian-like linking and

This is cool. A bunch of interesting things here: 1. Agent can create its own tools and save them to memory 2. You create a SQL (and web app?) workbench per agent run 3. Grok fell off a cliff in the last month. Was this consistent o

VC industry likes to mention that there are bad actors without actually mentioning the bad actors. It's a faux pas to actually name and shame. The industry happens to be small enough and super relationship-driven so, for better or wors

When should I use this versus Browserbase or Browserless or Hyperbrowser? Obviously since this is open source, then I can self host it. What other reasons? Just curious!

If the goal is safety, rewriting ancient battle-tested software is not the way to do it. The Lindy Effect for software: the longer software appears to be bug-free, the more likely it is bug-free.

I feel like every enterprise ad or marketing site is like this. I have no idea what it does, but it says it'll make numbers go up, so execs buy. It must work to a degree, because it's so common.

I never want to claim certainties, but it seems pretty close to certain that symbolic AI loses to statistical AI. I think there is room for statistical AI to operate symbolic systems so we can better control outputs. Actually, that's k

100% agree. When we explicitly segment and compose AI components, we are removing the ability for them to learn their own pathways between the components. We've been proven time and time again the bitter lesson[1]: that throwing a ton

Just did a pricing check, and you give twice as much concurrency/browsing/data-transfer as Browserbase. Nice! Do you have any restrictions on sites we can scrape? I am likely going to do some public LinkedIn scraping (logged out,

If you look at LLM performance on benchmarks, they keep getting better at a fast rate.[1] We also now have models of various sizes trained in general matters, and those can now be tuned or fine-tuned to specific domains. The advances in mul

I used to debug with curse words until I accidentally pushed one of those into the company's open source repo and then we went and did some `git push --force` to scrub it from history. Now I just use my initials at the start of a debug

I believe you're both saying the same thing. LLMs write "re-usable code" at the meta level. The code itself is not clean and reusable across implementations, but you don't even need that clean packaged library. You just

This is very cool! Most of the work I've seen on reducing inference costs has been via things like LoRAX that lets multiple fine-tunes share the same underlying base model. Do you imagine Outerport being a better fit for OSS model host
