Can someone explain what the war is about?

Like HDR abuse makes it sound bad, because the video is bright? Wouldn't that just hurt the person posting it since I'd skip over a bright video?

Sorry if I'm phrasing this all wrong, don't really use TikTok

I had the exact same thoughts. Even while I don't disagree with the premise, I'm so confused as to how they are intercepting the calls.

Like I don't think 73% of companies are foolish enough to be calling their LLM provider from the front-end with their API key.

Either they are doing something that they aren't mentioning, or this is just complete bogus.

wow, lots going on.

I'm actually curious how you get the data from reddit! Are you running your own scrapers or buying the data?

also small typo `State of art AI agents` -> State of the art AI agents

All good questions and is the second piece aside from the agent.

1. We have proxy support right now and most traffic are already being proxied today. Might allow fine tuning of this over time 2. We have plans to allow this, but not currently available 3. We are leveraging some anti bot/captcha solving, but I do believe this will be a never ending problem in some sense

I see it 3 fundamental pillars:

* Accuracy (does it do what we want) * Reliability (does it consistently do what we want) * Speed (does it do what we want fast)

We're mostly focused on solving 1 and maybe in some capacity 2.

The belief here is that models are going to get better. With that smaller models will become more capable. This will result in speed ups automatically.

So yes, I will concur that speed is probably not the main strength of our framework right now, but believe that we will get there with time.

Hmm, the video loads fine for me. Good call on the seeker, that's something we can add.

In general, our agent today is unlikely to call out on stylistic choices, but rather more so if something is broken. For e.g., the video doesn't start / the link doesn't go anywhere, etc.

everything you mention are good points though, and we've made a note!

Hello Hackernews,

I've been writing more recently about the things I see as an engineer at various early-stage start-ups and an aspiring founder myself.

Wrote a short piece on how (generally) not to find good ideas.

If you enjoyed it, I would love for you to subscribe and share more of what you'd like to see!

Perhaps create a walkthrough / demo with screenshots that highlight different features?

Sounds good, will take note and add that in for future showcases!

Also, can you explain the basic requirements? I assume an imap email server? Does it run on Windows / MacOS, or do I need to figure out how to host it?

Ya, so it turns out I might have been misleading when I mention email client which a couple others have pointed out. Going to update my post to be more accurate.

Right now it's more of a Gmail client. runs in a browser, and you can access it at curdinc.com/1
