New ask Hacker News story: VentureBeat Events in San Francisco?

VentureBeat Events in San Francisco? 2 by BriStoller | 0 comments on Hacker News. Has anyone been to one of the VentureBeat events in SF? I've gone to the smaller NYC events and they were really technical. There is a larger event in SF next week. Curious if anyone went last year. Is it worth it?

New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: How you manage local long lived research projects and LLM's?

Ask HN: How you manage local long lived research projects and LLM's? 3 by ripplefringe | 1 comments on Hacker News. TLDR: Do you have a pattern or structure for doing long-lived research or non-coding projects using LLMs? I was kind of inspired by this hacker news article where someone collected data to solve their fatigue problem: https://ift.tt/8AK567b A similar but smaller I did was to collect nut-free restaurants to eat in Chicago. So I had articles, reviews, emails, phone calls, all sorts of stuff. I found it very easy to just use Copilot as my interface and I just data into it over and over and asked it to organize it. https://ift.tt/Yvrkb0s This seems like a common thing where people would be working on a longer-term research or data collection task where you use the LLM to answer questions or help you accept the data. Does anyone have a standard format for this? Or an example that is working for you?

What do you do for sandboxing and cost control? How do you handle secrets? Etc.

Ask HN: How do you keep documentation up to date with AI generated code? 3 by ghosts_ | 1 comments on Hacker News. I've seen numbers like 75% of code at Google is AI generated, huge %s of code overall is AI generated, open source projects overwhelmed with "slop" PR requests. It's pretty undeniable that AI code is here to stay - so on your teams / companies how are you managing staying up on PR reviews, and documentation?

Ask HN: What is your AI harness that lets you switch LLM models easily? 2 by hbarka | 0 comments on Hacker News. Looks like we are at the end of the Fable-level model at subscription pricing. It will be double the cost at paid-per-token usage. I’m counting on the other models to compete now at the subscription level and I need my harness to be agnostic. What do you use?

Protecting Exploration in an Efficient System 2 by rando77 | 0 comments on Hacker News. I'm currently thinking about ways to protect exploration inside systems. Like making sure an exploration budget stays. Do people have good solutions for that?
