Does anybody know a good forum for discussing AI agent design? I have a bunch of questions, but too specific for the general LLM application communities.

Neat! Do you happen to have the analogous similarity queries with a default embedding? Curious to see them side by side. (I know I can reproduce myself and I appreciate all the cod…

Last summer/fall, there was a wave of projects to summarize HN articles with GPT. I’m curious if anybody uses summarization as part of your regular HN browsing, and if you have rec…

Off topic: what do you use for CMS? I like how the code blocks and graphs are integrated. Great post!
