Building a new kind of news site, featuring updates from primary sources. We're constantly pulling info from official sources, and using AI to group and summarize into stories, and continue to share reporting from trusted, vetted journalists. The result is news with the speed and breadth of getting updates straight from the source, and the perspective and context that reporting provides. Still ramping up, but I'd lov…

Didnt quite get this - if the only value prop is getting updates straight from the source (trusted/vetted journalists), what use is AI here, except for summaries perhaps?

https://llmpm.co I have built npm for LLM models, which lets you install & run 10,000+ open sourced large language models within seconds. The idea is to make models installable like packages in your code: llmpm install llama3 llmpm run llama3 You can also package large language models together with your code so projects can reproduce the same setup easily. Github: https://github.com/llmpm/llmpm-dev

Looks crazy! Thanks for building it, there is indeed a need for a npm or pip like package manager for AI Models.

I made my own AI personal assistant: https://github.com/skorokithakis/stavrobot It's like OpenClaw but actually secure, without access to secrets, with scoped plugin permissions, isolation, etc. I love it, it's been extremely helpful, and pairs really well with a little hardware voice note device I made: https://www.stavros.io/posts/i-made-a-voice-note-taker/

https://getvalara.com - PDF appraisal document in, grounded appraisal review out in 5-10 minutes to aid in risk management for lending institutions and individual appraisal reviewers.

We use landing.ai to parse the PDF, as well as useworkflow.dev to durably perform other work such as rendering PDF pages for citations, and coordinating a few lightweight agents and deterministic checks that flag for inconsistencies, rule violations, bias, verify appraiser credentials, etc. etc. Everything is grounded in the input document so it makes it pretty fast and easy. We’re going to market soon and have an approval sign up gate currently. Plenty of new features and more rigorous checks planned to bring us to and exceed parity with competition and human reviewers.

There’s plenty of margin for cost and latency versus manual human review, which takes an hour or more and costs $100 or more.

When GPT-4.5 came out, I used it to write a couple of novels for my son. I had some free API credits, and used a naive workflow: while word_count It worked well enough that the novels were better than the median novel aimed at my son's age group, but I'm pretty sure we can do better. There are web-based tools to help fiction authors to keep their stories straight: they use some data structures to store details about…

Do you mind posting these novels?
