r0b05··on TradeExpert, a trading framework that employs Mixture of Expert LLMs
Interesting, so you're doing more fundamental quantitative analysis and prediction. Yes, the issue with using an LLM is that they are too often incorrect, however, a human in the loop could solve this at the expense of automation.

Your project sounds ready cool though. If you ever feel like collaborating, give me a shout at drknyt05@gmail.com.

Are you referring to LLM's when you mention AI here?
r0b05··on Gemini Diffusion
Interesting, I thought it was a feature of the transformer specifically.
r0b05··on Gemini Diffusion
This architecture still hallucinates since it's still using transformers right?
r0b05··on Ask HN: How are you acquiring your first hundred users?
This is a really cool litmus test.
r0b05··on OpenAI reaches agreement to buy Windsurf for $3B
That's valuable user and competitor data actually.
r0b05··on I'd rather read the prompt
Ironically, the biggest benefit I get from using LLM's is precisely to help me learn.
r0b05··on Microsoft subtracts C/C++ extension from VS Code forks
MSFT want to build their own Cursor aka Copilot Agent.

They can build a better product with their resources effectively extinguishing Cursor, who will then need to find a way to differentiate.

If Cursor was smart, they would have decoupled from the beginning as they had first mover advantage. They will now have to adapt while fending off competition from MSFT and the other players.

MSFT meanwhile, have discovered that this market is too profitable to be left untouched. They have probably been building their agent for a while and have now decided to launch while simultaneously blocking direct competition. They already have an ecosystem with users who have switching inertia. It's a brilliant yet ruthless move.

Could you explain this please?

Looks pretty cool. Thanks!
r0b05··on Launch HN: Continue (YC S23) – Create custom AI code assistants
That's not bad. Btw your docs are really good. Will be checking out the Discord.
r0b05··on Launch HN: Continue (YC S23) – Create custom AI code assistants
I see, so it depends on a cli tool being available. I will check what other options are available out there.

It would be great to run local models at the same level one day. I am sure that Claude is making your wallet feel quite light :)

What I meant to ask is, instead of pushing your code to Github, is it possible to use a local self hosted instance of a similar tool like GitLab or Bitbucket?
r0b05··on Launch HN: Continue (YC S23) – Create custom AI code assistants
Very interesting. I'd like to give "Github" mode a try. Are you able to use some local instance instead?
r0b05··on The Five-Week Solo Startup
I actually don't think this is satire and find the post energizing and informative.

Some salient points that I took home.

Work in the morning before your day job starts. Treat the customer like a deity, forever. Built wealth, find customers, sell that wealth.

Your website is really cool.
r0b05··on Show HN: Turn any website into a knowledge base for LLMs
Does it hallucinate much?
r0b05··on One-man SaaS, 9 Years In
You are such an inspiration.

The explanation of why you became a solopreneur - because you didn't want to manage or be managed is simple, yet incredibly insightful. All the best!

r0b05··on To the brain, reading computer code is not the same as reading language (2020)
I'd say coding is more like playing a game than reading. It is initially difficult but once the fundamentals are learnt, the activity becomes one of how to use the fundamentals in creative ways to achieve a goal.
r0b05··on Facial features linked to stereotypes and social class perception
"The results reveal a unique constellation of facial features that underlie judgements of social class. Faces perceived as poor exhibited particular characteristics such as being wider, shorter, and flatter, with downturned mouths and darker, cooler complexions. Each of these facial features also made faces appear more incompetent, cold, or untrustworthy. In contrast, faces perceived as rich were narrower and longer with upturned mouths and lighter, warmer complexions – features which corresponded to those associated with perceptions of competence, warmth, and trustworthiness."

This is mind blowing. Who would have thought the Moon was so far away?

Great reply. That last sentence was pure art.

Are you using Angular for the UI?
r0b05··on Ask HN: How do you not take criticism of your work personally?
Amazing.
r0b05··on Fuck being productive
This is an enlightening point, to distinguish between our skill set and field of work. And each field brings certain types of people, some of whom you'll find it better to work with.
r0b05··on FastGPT: A fast, full search, AI answering engine
It lacks context.
r0b05··on Space Elevator
I always enjoy using this site.

Anyone know the tech stack used to make these?

r0b05··on What it feels like to work in AI right now
Instead of looking at use of an LLM in isolation, consider the value it could have in the future, combined with API's, other models, speech interface, etc.

Sure, it can help you write an email now, but the real magic could be when these things come together in a symphony of intelligence.

r0b05··on Ask HN: How are you using GPT to be productive?
I really like your UI design! There is something about it that is soothing.
r0b05··on Launch HN: Vocode (YC W23) – Library for voice conversation with LLMs
This is what I'm looking for as well.
