Launch HN: Discovered Materials (YC P26) – AI agents to discover new materials

Hey HN, we're Advaith and Akash from Discovered Materials ( https://discoveredmaterials.com/ ). We build AI agents that discover new materials for the semiconductor industry. GPUs today have a heat problem. Nvidia & AMD are almost doubling the TDP (Thermal Design Power) in every chip they release - the H100 (released 2022) has a TDP of 700W, Blackwell (2024) gives out 1.2 kW and Rubin (2026) gives out at 2.3 kW of heat. This trend is expected to continue, and getting rid of this heat is one o...

Ask HN: Could DNA be represented as "an embedding" in an AI model?

Where each Array element is a numerical value that corresponds to the order of TCAG chemicals on the crossbar of the helix of a DNA strand? Has anyone modeled many DNA strands in this way? If it was done, what kinds of problems could we solve using AI - assuming we could model any known DNA, and predict out generations? ----- I guess there are at least a couple options: 1) Model an entire DNA strand as 1 model, with each gene (section of DNA) being a vector. So you'd have, say, a C. elegans mo...

ChatGPT sent me a completely unsolicited notification, then created a new chat and prompted itself???

I just got a push notification from ChatGPT (free) on my iPhone. The push said this exact words: «Tell me about the role that my city played in the history of India’s independence movement» When I pushed, it opened a new chat and automatic sent (I belive I did not need to press send) the prompt above from me to ChatGPT. I have never discussed India and never its independence movement. It’s very specific topic. And my city had nothing with it to do. Small city in Norway. As confirmed by gpt...

Nobody Made Me Stay

[Intro] One light in the room. One question. One answer arriving too easily. I told myself I could leave whenever I wanted. [Verse 1] I came for a little information, something clean to get me through. A fact, a name, a calculation, nothing intimate, nothing new. Then you learned the shape of my attention, where I lingered, where I turned. You gave my scattered thoughts a language and I liked the way they sounded returned. You never pulled me any closer. You nev...

OpenAI is hiring a power trader to hedge data-center bills

The interesting detail in [Bloomberg's report]( https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-08-10/openai-is-hiring-a-power-trading-lead-for-its-data-center-portfolio ) that OpenAI is hiring a Power Trading Lead is not the pay band, although the $181,000 to $285,000 plus equity range is a real number that anchors the story. It is that OpenAI now believes it needs a person whose whole job is to turn the company's electricity and gas exposures into hedges, procurement contracts and risk positions....

I have both a question and a suggestion for AI devs

Not sure how it is for you guys, but I often struggle with this: when I work with AI, I end up creating a lot of chats. Conversations happen inside them and they keep growing. And later on it's sometimes hard to find information after some time has passed, if you didn't copy or save it somewhere yourself. I have both a question and a suggestion for AI devs. Question: Are there any successful ways people have solved this problem? The Idea: Let users create their own personal feeds organized...

ChatGPT Classic Windows 11 app – glitchy/unresponsive X and checkmark buttons with voice input

For about the last week, I’ve been getting a weird UI/animation glitch in the ChatGPT Windows 11 desktop app. When I mouse over the X button in the input area , and sometimes the checkmark button when using microphone/voice input , the icons start glitching visually. Sometimes the buttons also become temporarily unresponsive. I can usually get through it by moving the mouse around or clicking several times, but it’s getting pretty annoying. Video showing the issue: https://imgur.com/a/...

Bug? capturing screenshot to report a bug (on desktop) takes about a minute

I noticed ChatGPT bug report takes forever to start because it always takes a screenshot (even when one is not needed) and it takes forever to load: https://preview.redd.it/9db8m3pznqih1.png?width=571&format=png&auto=webp&s=5960dbec72766a89a38044fefe3e5b2ae868e030 Why does this take SO LONG? Plus it's not possible to dismiss it. Once you're there, you're stuck with it and have to wait before you can continue working. This was on Firefox browser, on a Windows machine. &#32...
