Ask HN: What are some of the best user experiences with AI?

No one? In my opinion we are not there yet. Right now "chat" is the killer UX, I think conversational inputs will take over for a time... right now my killer AI app is a home brew slack bot RAG pipeline for my own knowledge base building and searching... Why share it, its free now... I think this will also be a trend. Those who can, those who cant.

Well, as a blind user, I'd like to point at the OpenAI Vision integration of BeMyEyes! Being able to get fully detailed scene descriptions including OCR and translation all in one package was pretty much a game changer for me.

Not so much kick-ass, but still works nicely: https://github.com/mlang/tracktales -- My MPD track announcer with support for describing album art...

Year ago I cancelled my policy with Churchill; I found the entire process pretty painless = called the phoneline, was greeted by the robot, I said "I want to cancel my policy", from the phone number I was calling it has gotten who I was; I confirmed my identity, it outlined when my policy will be cancelled and confirmed with me that I want to proceed. The entire experience was a self-serve that I'd like to see everywhere.

Comparing this to yesterdays adventure with other service (my package got lost) where the bot couldn't decipher what a WRITTEN "my package got lost" or "where is my delivery" means.

At Soundslice we're using a custom machine learning system to convert sheet music images into semantic music data:

Personally I think the user experience is interesting because we show you very specific questions for low-confidence decisions. Some example screenshots are on that link above. Over time, the number of manual questions has gone down, as our models have gotten smarter about the (seemingly endless!) edge cases in music notation.

Once music is uploaded and scanned, you can use our bespoke notation editor to make any edits. The original image is tightly integrated into our editor, so you can cross-reference.

This is my first production ML product after 20 years of being a web developer. I wrote up some general thoughts here: http://www.holovaty.com/writing/machine-learning-thoughts/

The best are the ones you use all day without thinking about ie. biometrics and computational photography.

AI works better when it's invisible and like magic rather than being yelled at you.
