Coincidently he uses AI to solve this problem
Do you have evidence? I see no indication of this.
LLMs are the holy grail for getting beyond string matches. I would hope one was used to solve such a problem, otherwise that would be a poor product, right?
I did not investigate the product, but my point here is irony. The correct solution to implement the TFA product is to use an LLM.
I can deal with a launch problem. I am looking forward to being able to check it out. I stopped coming to HN as often as I used to because there has been too much AI talk. It's like a dang AI subreddit. I don't want anything to do with AI. I have lost 2 jobs to AI budgets and stupid executive decisions. It's no longer part of my personal and professional life. I hope it works out.
It’s interesting how, as someone more pro-AI, I feel the exact opposite way - every comment thread just devolves into people saying AI is stupid (OK, perhaps modulo new model releases from frontier labs, those tend to be fairly positive). Like we had a thread about what your AI workflow is and people were coming in and saying they didn’t have one because AI is bad. Really? Do these people enter threads about what you…
Sure overly enthusiastic Rust fans exist and they are annoying. But it's nowhere even close to the AI mania gripping the industry.

Sure, but not to the same extent. Because the industry isn't experiencing a trend where it tells everyone that if they don't use Rust, they are obsolete. And because nobody is saying "Rust is going to take all our jobs" to all the other programmers. And because most of the threads on HN aren't about Rust on a daily basis. Sure overly enthusiastic Rust fans exist and they are annoying. But it's nowhere even close to t…
Interesting this keeps moving up the front page when the site is inaccessible because it's hosted on a baked potato.

I have evidence that it's not AI. It's just a regex. https://github.com/elijah-potter/blog/blob/master/pages/hnsa...

What would be the worse non-semantic alternative? Regex? LLMs are the holy grail for getting beyond string matches.

Even if you wanted to go beyond simple keyword matching, there are ways to determine relevance before jumping to the shiny new overkill solution.
Also for everyone's sanity, please don't turn a troll's false accusations into a cynical argument for more LLMs. That's what drives to people to reach for solutions like the one in the article in the first place.
