Show HN: Let's Build AI

#1
Hi,

I built letsbuild.ai over the weekend. This is a link site dedicated to AI and can be edited via Github.

There is well over 50 links already as a start. If you got interesting AI related links/ categories, would welcome any PR.

Looks neat, kind of those "awesome X" list. Maybe adding a wiki would be interesting (so uninitiated can learn what is what and where to start if they want to build/train their own AI).

Tangential question I am not sure where else to ask: Would it be possible to train AI at home on a book? I was thinking about how sometimes I start reading a book and then get distracted for a month or two. Summarizing chapters and characters up to a point in the book sounds like a good fit for GPT AI. I could possibly find and extract PDF or epub of the current book I am reading and I have RTX 4080 at home I am barely using.

I think a "roadmap" should be also provided on how to learn this topic in a guided way. Also, some captions would be useful: what does it mean "model development"? Why "vector databases" ? What is "LLM Automation" ? What should I click first if I am a complete newbie ?

Why wouldn't you just use Claude 3? It's going to be miles better than any OSS model.

How is this different than AI Awesome lists?

Author here. Thanks for asking. One key objective is not to be yet another linksite, but add utility by providing direct shortcuts to code, docs, api references etc. next to the main link.

I'm currrently re-reading Jurassic Park, and I can't help but wonder whether we are committing the same mistakes with AI as the scientists in the book...

AI seems to be the ultimate example of "shoot first, ask questions later". We have no idea how AI will effect society, the marginal benefits to people are near-zero (measred in terms of the difference before any adoption to widespread adoption, not incremental intermediate stages), and most of the effects will likely be disastrous (much more efficient propaganda, much more efficient drug-in-the-form-of-media production to distract us from the true ills of the world to prevent a true revolution for good, and a huge wealth concentration towards tech companies).

This wanton development of AI seems exceptionally reckless...

I'll have to read first what Claude 3 is. Thank you.
