Yeah, as a student, I have to agree. The issue with learning things isn't that it hasn't been tailored to be interesting or relatable to me, it's just that it's a lot of content and it's hard. The solution is figur

I agree, but I'm basing this on HackerNews' own guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html My explanation was a little bit narrow by mentioning tech though, that just happens to be the general th

As much as I'd also appreciate a discussion on something like this, it's heavily political and HN isn't really the place for that unless it's directly related to tech.

The big future that I see for foldables is as tablets for note takers. Microsoft and Apple have already proven that students are willing to shell out the money to buy $1000+ products just to take hand written digital notes on. If Samsung

Another thing to add: developers don't have the time or don't want to spend time on apps like this, but it's not like this is anything complicated. This app ultimately amounts to something that has been done millions of times

Been using Claude Sonnet 4 for a web app that's using React, Mantine, Vite, and a NoSql db. Frankly, it's been incredible. The app is not complicated by any means. It's a really simple CRUD app for tracking animals (what fa

This is how I feel as well. What's even worse is that it seems like the academics doing research in the area of software engineering don't really have up to date experience that's practical. Add to the fact that they're

If you look at a lot of products out there that are basically what people want Siri to be (a truly integrated AI assistant), they either fall super flat (see rabbit r1) or are prohibitively expensive (see motion ai). Additionally, I think a

I use them depending on the task and the underlying model. I want to preface by saying: I'm kind of talking out of my ass with my reasoning. I make a lot of assumptions based on my current understanding of how models work and what I&#x

People are missing the point of the question. OP is asking if you've built a tool that uses AI without it just being a standard chat wrapper, not if you've built something with code generated from an AI model.

I'm having trouble seeing how AI is used/needed here, can you explain?

by sky2224 1y ago
GPT 4.1 does this as well. This isn't new. You shouldn't expect an AI model to do math beyond explanations of concepts properly unless it's reaching for a tool (i.e., a calculator). That isn't what LLMs are designed fo

IIRC F# was also sort of supposed to be used for their quantum efforts, which later resulted in Q# being spawned.

I think this is just a bit doomerish honestly. Yes, the AI hype is real, and yes there's a desire to cut costs by using AI within companies. However, I think the maintainer (Evan Su) has a bit of a narrow view on this matter. Evan is

I've found with limited context provided in your prompt, opus is just awful compared to even gpt-4.1, but once I give it even just a little bit more of an explanation, it jumps leagues ahead.

I think the idea here is that your first approach is what you think is correct. However, there's a chance the model is just outputting text that confirms your incorrect approach. The second one is a different perspective that is sup
