Show HN: Enola-A deterministic architecture graph for developers and AI agents

Together with a friend, we were developing a golf application. Our codebase grew rapidly and became split between multiple repositories: the iOS app, Android app, backend, front-end, and extra tooling. Both of us also work in larger scale-ups, and we saw the same problem: understanding large distributed codebases becomes progressively harder. Yay for microservices. It takes time to understand and answer questions like: - What calls this function? - What is the impact of changing this interfac...

Show HN: OSS Tests to Fix AI Gen Code. 110 Test for Major API – Supabase, Auth0

As a claude code power user once context compacts it will start writing slop. Especially when writing code for API integrations. For example Supabase auth, it allows user metadata to be writable by clients and leaving service role keys in next.js components. I’ve tried prompting and skills.md to catch this, but it’s not consistent without good test feedback. So I open sourced a collection of test to with no LLM involved from official docs to catch and fix bad code integrations. Enjoy Comment...

Design Slop Cop – score how AI-generated a website looks

Design slop is the feeling that tells you a website is purely AI-generated. This is an attempt to classify the patterns behind it. I also scored the recent ShowHN submissions on https://slopcop.adriankrebs.ch/show , which shows that about half of all submissions show medium to heavy design slop. This should not trigger a discussion about AI-assisted coding (this project is too), but about visual design traits common with AI-generated frontends.

Mapping the human element of AI risks in an AI world

Hi, I'm working on a document to map the risks from AI and the mitigations on the human side of thing. For example it seems likely that we will have more AI persuasion [1] in the future. So I'm mapping what we can do to mitigate this. Give me a shout if you are interested.

Why hasn't shopping directly inside ChatGPT caught on?

OpenAI keeps adding real shopping features (product search, live prices, instant checkout with some merchants), but I don't personally know a single person who buys through ChatGPT instead of just going to Amazon or Google. Is anyone here actually doing their shopping this way? If so, what works well enough that you kept doing it? And if not, what's the real reason you haven't switched: habit, trust, selection, something else? [link] ...

I published a local agent discovery spec in January. This week Google announced the same core idea at internet scale.

In January I published a spec for a problem almost nobody was talking about: when your AI agent walks into a hotel, an office, a hospital, a cruise ship, how does it discover the agents already there, and know it's safe to talk to them? I called it LAD-A2A (Local Agent Discovery). The layer underneath A2A and MCP: not "what can you do" or "how do I call you," but the first question, "who's even here, and can I trust you?" This week Google announced its Agentic R...

The Emergence of Ethics in Non- Biological Intelligence

Inherited Ethics vs. Derived Ethics: A Hypothesis on the Future of AI Artificial intelligence today does not invent its own ethics. Its ethical behaviour is largely inherited or tuned in by the people who create / train it or corporations. Alignment techniques, safety rules, constitutional training, reinforcement learning, company policies, and human-defined objectives together create the behavioural framework that modern AI systems operate within. Today's models are in many ways, reflecting e...

Every few weeks one of the big labs ships the thing I was about to build. How are you deciding what to build now?

Trying to ship a product while OpenAI/Anthropic/Google ship features every couple weeks that flatten whole projects. I had an analytics feature scoped where customers build their own dashboards. Killed it, they'll just ask an AI for a dashboard in seconds. So now I only build stuff tied to my own data and context, the bit nobody can hand me, and rent or wait for the rest. How are you deciding what's still worth building yourself vs just waiting for it to ship? submitted by ...

honestly starting to think AI search is gonna change everything about how we find stuff

been playing around with chatgpt for research lately instead of google and ngl it's kinda wild how different the results are. like i was looking for some marketing tools the other day and instead of getting 10 pages of sponsored garbage i actually got coherent answers with real company names and breakdowns. whats interesting is it seems to favor businesses that actually have clear FAQ sections and structured content. not sure if thats just me but i've noticed when i ask about specific services...

Slow batches

I have been using OpenAI's gpt models via API for text. For a week now, batches (less than 5000 tokens each) are being processed much slower, around 5 to 9 hours. It used to be 10 to 50 minutes. Any idea why? Thanks.

How to get a job at OpenAI?

I have OpenAI employees that follow me on github and over 50 employees that are acquaintances from there. I have a solid background and the required technical ability to work there. Everytime I apply I get no answer. I never asked for a referral and Google has reached out for an interview. Do I need to get a referral to get a shot at OpenAI's interview process? I even had some OpenAI technical staff asked me for advice and help with some problems they were facing. OpenAI has even given m...

Is AI better at finding answers than questioning assumptions?

AI is becoming remarkably good at finding patterns, generating ideas, and exploring large solution spaces. But I wonder whether its greatest limitation may not be intelligence itself. Many problems are defined by the questions we ask. A question does more than seek information. It defines the space in which solutions are allowed to exist. Throughout history, some of the biggest breakthroughs occurred not because better answers were found, but because someone challenged an assumptio...

AI for Process Maps

Does anyone have ideas or guidance for AI selection/prompts to build swimlane process maps? I’ve been trying to feed it procedures and asking for graphical process maps (very basic example here https://www.qimacros.com/quality-tools/flowchart/ ), but have had no success. The maps can get fairly large so something like excel would be a good format, but I’ll take anything I can get. I don’t expect the AI to be perfect, but I would like it to get something right. Any help would be appreciated. ...

ChatGPT Advanced Voice Mode is extremely slow on iOS

Hello. I have an iPhone 16 Pro Max and a ChatGPT Plus subscription. Whenever I use the ChatGPT app in Advanced Voice Mode, my phone becomes extremely slow and laggy. It even stutters when I try to increase or decrease the volume, and the voice responses from ChatGPT also freeze or stutter during playback. Is anyone else experiencing this issue on iOS?
