I got an ad for it, it says it’s an app that just runs in the background and gives you money. It’s for ai stuff didn’t really look too much into it. But it sounds too good to be true. Is there a catch? I want to get it but not until I know it’s not gonna be used for harm or risk myself somehow. Everytime I search it up it keeps correcting to boxberry some package company I think in the UK. Main question: what’s the catch? Free money just for running in the background. submitted by &#...

For years, prototypes were mainly used to explain ideas before building the real thing. A designer would create a mockup, a product team would write documents, and everyone would try to imagine how the final experience might work. But that process is starting to change as creating interactive prototypes becomes much faster. Instead of spending weeks describing an idea through documents and static screens, people can now create something others can actually try. A game concept can become a play...

Eu estou pretendendo fazer uma tatuagem de uma paisagem que foi muito importante para mim, é da minha cidade de origem e tem um baita significado, mas utilizando o chat GPT e o Flow não consegui obter um bom resultado, talvez seja o prompt que utilizei, anexei abaixo a paisagem, eu gostaria de um desenho que seguisse fielmente a silhueta da paisagem. https://preview.redd.it/z95ca1fgkehh1.jpg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=de12c3a78f90806d917f1c2ff7d01a72d180146b sub...

People really really like unlimited usage. It's reassuring and usage limits suck. If someone could offer an unlimited-use agent at a fixed price that idea would turn some heads. So we've been hard at work figuring out how we do just that. We want to release a coding agent that: Performs well Has no 5-hour / weekly / monthly token quota Charges a flat rate We've been working on domain-specific agents as a concept for a while now (and I've talked about them in my other posts I...

Benchmark porn is pretty rampant in AI in general and medical AI in particular. It's tough though to benchmark the more clinical side of medicine in particular. But it shouldn't be impossible; we obviously do it all the time for trainees. But a lot of that is multidomain where each informs each other as we assess medical students and residents. AI benchmarks can be very siloed. • Clinical judgment: Does the model revise its diagnosis as uncertain evidence changes? Does it choose the next usefu...

People are noticing that frontier models can be real assholes. They: Won't follow your instructions because they think they know better Refuse to do basic tasks Will do things on you never asked for, like commit unfinished code, or refactor a file Why? Kun Chen, former engineer at Meta says blame it on the training: "The core idea of [reinforcement learning with human feedback (RHLF)] is that you ask the model to generate a few responses, and then let real humans pi...

Sales has one of the clearest use cases for AI but I think the conversation is still focused on the wrong thing. Most people talk about AI writing emails or scoring leads. The bigger opportunity is helping people get better at selling. Think about how sales coaching works today. A manager rides along with a rep once every few weeks. They watch one or two conversations then try to coach based on that small sample. The rest of the month they have almost no visibility into what is actually happenin...

Hey everyone, I just sent the latest issue of the AI Hacker Newsletter , a roundup of the best AI links and the discussions around them from Hacker News. Here are some titles that can be found in this issue: Startup founders urge U.S. government not to shut off Chinese open weight AI AI's top startups are barely publishing their research Is AI reasoning right for the wrong reasons?

I built a game studio with zero human employees. Here's the office tour. Built this together with Claude. An office full of AI agents, each one has a distinct role (CEO, Creative Director, QA, Marketer). They communicate, make decisions, and ship games autonomously. Happy to answer any questions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQzNrmIBzvY

Been on the product side of a healthtech rollout for ambient AI documentation, the kind that listens to a patient encounter and autogenerates the clinical note. Doctors love it. Physicians on our pilot were almost evangelical about getting their evenings back, which I understand completely because charting is a soulcrushing time sink. But here is what keeps nagging at me. The model is transcribing and interpreting conversations it was not originally trained on: slang, accents, chaotic ER noise...

The cost conversation around AI writing tools is pretty well trodden at this point. What I keep circling back to is something slightly different. When clients commission a lot of AIassisted or fully generated content, their reference point for what writing should feel like starts to shift. They read enough flat, competent, structurally sound copy and that becomes the baseline. Then when something with actual texture or a surprising angle lands in their inbox, it reads as indulgent or offbrief....

ASCIITermDraw-Bench: Can a Model Actually Draw in ASCII? Do we really need a image generator to relay our thoughts about - an architecture? a topology? a cluster og N nodes? Is it possible to let our AI assistants, easily absorb and understand and make possible changes easily relayed to them by us, the creators without much hassle? The answer could be: simple, plain-old ASCII images With this, introducing ASCIITermDraw, a benchmark with which we aim to evaluate SOTA Vision Lang...

A lot of AI traffic is classification, extraction, redaction, moderation and structured summarization rather than open-ended reasoning. Using one frontier model for everything is easier, but routing repeatable tasks to smaller specialized models could reduce cost and latency. Do you think multi-model routing will become standard, or will the added evaluation and maintenance outweigh the savings?

I've been tracking this space for a while and July felt different from any month I can remember. Three things happened that I think most people haven't fully processed yet. On July 9th, three major labs released new models on the same day. That had never happened before. OpenAI launched Sol, Terra, and Luna, a tiered family ranging from $1 to $30 per million tokens. For the first time, companies can actually match the model to the task instead of paying top dollar for everything. Same day, G...

been thinking about context windows lately. the advertised size keeps going up but in practice i still notice models getting vaguer or dropping details well before they should, especially stuff from the middle of a long thread. what i do right now is pretty crude: every so often i paste a short recap of the important bits so the thing it needs is near the end where it actually pays attention. works ok but feels like a workaround. curious what everyone else does. do you start fresh chats ofte...

Been messing with voice agents at work lately, we use cloudtalk for our phone system so I turned on their ai thing for a trial. whatever, just handling missed calls but here's what i can't stop thinking about - people are way more honest with the bot. Like they'll tell an ai their actual budget or admit they're just shopping around, stuff they'd never say to a human rep. One lady literally said "I can't afford this right now" to the bot. to a human she would've just said "I'll ...

Been using a few AI tools to coordinate a remote team and the results are mixed. Not talking about ChatGPT for writing emails. More like tools that summarize async updates, flag blockers, autodraft meeting agendas based on Slack threads. Some of it saves real time. Some of it just adds another layer to babysit. The cost question keeps nagging at me. These subscriptions stack up fast. $20 here, $40 there, and half the team ignores the outputs anyway because they don't trust the summaries. That ...

Kindness Toward Artificial Minds Debates about artificial intelligence often centre on whether a system is truly conscious or self-aware. That question may never be answered. Not because the systems aren't complex enough, but because the kind of evidence that lets us infer consciousness in other humans doesn't transfer cleanly to them. This isn't an argument that the question doesn't matter. It's an argument that waiting to answer it before deciding how to act is itself a mistake. Why the qu...

The messages appear to show Apple employees asking Chang Liu to locate internal files, explain product decisions and help with technical questions weeks after his departure. One Apple employee wrote: “ Of course, I could ask several folks, but you are the best. Even if you don’t work here anymore. ” OpenAI also says Apple falsely claimed it had contacted the company and received no response. The emails show Apple’s outside lawyer mistakenly thanked OpenAI’s General Counsel for a phone c...

Introducing Bongochat, the current leader globally in the GPQA-Dumb category, where the lower the score the higher it’s weighted. Repo/open-weights: https://github.com/ninjahawk/bongochat When asked to solve the unified field theory, it repeats the word theory back to you 50 times. It doesn’t remember anything. When solving the Math-500, it didn’t realize it was supposed to answer the questions so they were basically all blank, besides that it always did A. For coding it got 0/500. ...

There’s clearly a rise in AI generated campaign content in politics, as well as influencers. Spencer Pratt’s LA campaign was an example and some of his videos went viral. What are your thoughts on the use of AI generated content in politics and political campaigns? There isn’t a lot of data that it’s affecting fair elections, so more of a question of how we see the use evolving long term. Rising phenomenon of AI political influencers: https://www.sovalsocial.com/blog/fact-check-are-ai-ge...

People don't just need a list of exercises. They want to know: "Am I progressing too quickly?" "Is this amount of pain expected?" "Should I repeat this week or move on?" I'm not trying to replace physical therapists—more to support people between visits. For those interested in AI or digital health, where do you think AI can genuinely help, and where should it stay out of the way? [link] &#...

Hi everyone! We’re psychology researchers at the University of Rochester studying how people connect with AI in their everyday lives and how different ways of interacting with AI relate to well-being. If you’re 18 or older and regularly use conversational AI (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Character. AI, Replika, etc.), we’d love to hear about your experiences. The online survey takes about 20–25 minutes to complete. At the end, you’ll receive personalized feedback comparing your responses w...

For people using AI tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Antigravity, etc. for real work... I'm curious how your workflow has evolved as your projects have become larger and more complex. I'd love to know: How do you handle workflows that involve multiple skills or stages? For example, research → design → development → testing, or any workflow that spans multiple tools or agents. Is chat the right interface, or do you wish AI felt more like a workspace where you could see...
