the 12 days of OpenAI has been a complete dud so far, only incremental improvements

I ditched Copilot for Cursor and never looked back. Cursor might be the only other AI product with product market fit than ChatGPT, it's that good

more gimmicks than actual progress. scaling limits and intelligence barrier has definitely been hit

At a surface level, but to do anything meaningful, you likely need to understand deeper technical details like RAG, context windows, tokenization, etc

ChatGPT and coding helpers are the only useful applications. Just like Bitcoin and Ethereum are the only useful cryptocurrencies. Hence the limited applications for either technology

AI right now reminds me exactly of the blockchain/crypto hype. People trying to apply blockchain to everything, calling something a "blockchain" based solution. However, blockchain based solutions never panned out, as it was

Thank you for sharing. >"We then decided to pivot into a vertical B2B SaaS AI product because we felt we could use the breakthroughs in Gen AI to solve previously unsolvable problems, but after going through user interviews and the

no one is successfully using LLMs for anything other than customer service related things and text generation(coding, writing)

the hype bubble is nearing it's top

you do realize that these so called "one-off" AI programs would need to be maintained? Most people paying for Saas are paying for the support/maintenance rather than features, which AI can't handle. No one will want to r

this is literally impossible at most companies due to politics, incentive alignments, OKRs etc

I don't think you need stablecoins to do this, you just need a crypto exchange that supports withdrawing to your Costa Rican bank account

I can't wait until AI plateaus and stops scaling horizontally across GPUs. Then the idea of agents will finally go away. AI cannot reason and to think otherwise is asinine.

Curious where AI added value for you here? I can see the obvious use cases like photo recognition of meals for tracking, but wondering if there's anything more unique.

I was speaking more to GenAI solutions, this is more traditional ML
260.
by asdev 2y ago
is this custom built or are you using a third party system that integrates with Zendesk, Intercom etc?

who is actually making sustainable revenue solving a real problem using AI? I can only think of the foundational models(OpenAI, Gemini etc), coding helpers(Cursor, GH Copilot)

how is this different from Posthog?

how can you write metrics against something that's non deterministic?

would be interested to know if the "AI" in this is anything further than an OpenAI wrapper and RAG
265.
by asdev 2y ago
no problem! hope it works out for you. currently only supports Ollama and OpenAI but should be pretty easily extended to Claude and other APIs

it would be nice to see all the ingredients and see which ones have poor/toxic additives

sourcegraph is dead with advent of LLMs and AI coding tools right? Github cross repo search is also not bad anymore

by asdev 2y ago
it is definitely all the rage in the AI community. what made it better than Github Copilot for you?
