Ask HN: What Would You Like to See in a New AI Technology Release?

Hello, We’re Iki Software, an AI R&D company working on “SPC-AI”, our new AI technology. SPC is a different kind of AI from LLMs, transformers or neural networks. Instead of prompting, you use it as a trainable data-structure inside software. It’s easily trained by common programmers, and has a number of uses we’re eager to talk about. We’re currently looking at our first public release in a few weeks (pending any behind the scenes business stuff), so that everyone can learn about and get th...

Show HN: Talk to Sam (AI) and send a real letter by post

I built a little piece of Her. Remember Theodore's job writing letters for other people? You talk to Sam, edit the letter together, then have it printed and mailed. I put a lot of time and effort into making it feel as close to the movie as possible. Very happy with the animations! Try it out!

Show HN: HieraticBench – Can AI read ancient Egyptian handwriting?

I'm obsessed with Egyptology. During covid, I wanted to get a hieratic tattoo. For those who don't know, hieratic is the cursive form of hieroglyphs that was used in day-to-day life in ancient Egypt. It's as old as hieroglyphs. I then went on a mission to have a sentence translated into hieratic. Luckily, in 2022, I was able to commission an Oxford Egyptologist to write it for me. After that, I took it to a hieratic specialist I found on Instagram to redraw it with "biblical" accuracy. When gene...

Show HN: I turned my iPhone and a $20 smart plug into an f-stop timer

I am a film photographer and do some darkroom printing and always wanted one of the proper, advanced f-stop timers, but never really wanted to spend a couple hundred dollars on one. Eventually I figured my phone was already perfectly capable of doing the timing, it just needed a way to switch the enlarger. So I built Darkplug around a cheap smart plug. The app controls the enlarger over the local network and does regular timing, f-stop timing, test strips, has an intuitive dodge/burn workflow, s...
