cloudking··on Ask HN: Do you think AI avatars can substitute sales representatives?
Seems plausible with the advancements in the technology. Which startups have you looked at? So far the best ones I've seen are Synthesia and HeyGen. There's still a bit of "uncanny valley" going on, but I could see them closing the realism gap over the next few years.

cloudking··on Video scraping: extracting JSON from a 35s screen capture for 1/10th of a cent
"Accessing my Gmail data programatically" is pretty painless with Apps Script, you can pipe those emails into a Sheet. LLMs are pretty good at writing Apps Script too, I've used them for dozens of small internal tools like your use case https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/gmail
cloudking··on AlphaCodium outperforms direct prompting of OpenAI's o1 on coding problems
It's much more than an API wrapper. They built a bunch of custom smaller models like tab auto completion, applying changes from foundation models, indexing all your code and performing RAG etc. All of this is abstracted away from the user in an easy to use UX.
cloudking··on Ask HN: What AI tools are you using to boost developer productivity?
Cursor, ChatGPT for Teams
cloudking··on The science of "Zoom fatigue"
Our team culture defaults to video off for most recurring calls, it's more relaxing and less exhausting. When there's something really important to discuss, or an exec/client meeting we'll turn on video.
cloudking··on Adobe's new image rotation tool is one of the most impressive AI tools seen
This is the true power of generative AI, enabling new functionality for the user with simple UX while doing all the heavy lifting in the background. Prompting as a UX should be abstracted away from the user.

cloudking··on Screenpipe: 24/7 local AI screen and mic recording
https://www.rewind.ai/ tries to do this also. Ultimately I found over the course of a work week, there was way too much noise vs signal for it be useful.
cloudking··on Show HN: Quadratic – native JavaScript support in a spreadsheet
How does your product differentiate from Google Apps Script? I see you can execute JS within a cell, but why is that a better UX than keeping the code separated like Apps Script does?
