subZero [0] - The TypeScript library to build internal tools fast

In technical terms, it's PostgREST + GoTrue as TS library (written in rust and go, compiled to wasm, with support for Ppostgres/MySql/Sqlite/ClickHouse)

I've been working on this on and off for a few weeks now. The idea is to let LLMs interact with the outside world using function calling. Eg- I built a simple version of chatgpt web browsing using function calling. There's a django site which is responsible for the auth, managing chats etc and then there's a flask site that's responsible for running functions in a gvisor sandbox. Users will be able to upload their functions as docker images and I'll run them in a sandbox.

There is a lot of self doubt at this point: who is this for? Will people pay for usage? Should I open source the entire thing or part of it? To add to this: I have no online audience, how do I promote this?

I do have some answers to these questions. Eg- should I open source the flask site and get llama 2 to use it? It provides value to the community + hopefully I can get some attention for the project.

I would appreciate any feedback on this project. Please send me an email if you want some openai credits added to your account.

Edit: use testaccount/demouser to login, I've added some credits for testing.

As someone who has been majorly affected by the Hollywood strikes, I finally dived in and spent the time needed to make mistakes to continually learn how to program. That said, ive been working on a node.js PDF Text screenplay parser that will ultimately push out a JSON object according to an initiative to standardize all screenplay objects in screenJSON[0]. Here is the github for my project, it’s messy but I’m about…

Have you tried using any LLM for this task? LLMs are text-in text-out systems and excel at transformations of text.

A webapp that lets you quickly record over existing YT videos (or TikTok), putting your face over the video in a little overlay circle, so you can make commentaries about any existing video, it will support multiple YT videos so you can mix them for whatever reason (e.g. your video of top 5 doom mods that you clipped together 5 different videos), the main focus would be to make it easy, no dragging bars like most video editing software; you record, you click "undo" if you didn't like the record, by default they are saved in the order you recorded

https://transcript.fish I have been working on this podcast transcription project for a couple months and it's been super rewarding. I listen to a podcast called No Such Thing As A Fish[0], where some researchers talk about their favorite facts they learned that week. Then they riff on it and are generally smart and funny. I listened to the series so many times that I decided I wanted to listen to the show on shuffle…

Naive comment here but you could check out using a vector database for semantic searches. Check out chromadb.

i've tried a couple and probably prefer Marqo to the rest. definitely the most user-friendly pick of the bunch.

Oh for sure, but since most screenplays are standardized to a point, the idea is to just use Regex to get there, then use a local version of llama 2 to finish up the classifications.

Where the fun with LLMs come in, is after all the screenplays have been parsed and turned into a dataset that is trained on not just the story but also the cinematography aspects, as well since we’ve broken it down to a granular detail of each element of each scene.

I see where you're going with this. Elemental (motif-based) editing instead of timeline and frame based editing?
