What is the general sentiment of the comments on the current top hacker news story?
--
The general sentiment of the comments on the current top Hacker News story titled "Google has a secret browser hidden inside the settings" is a mix of curiosity, concern, and reminiscence. Some users are intrigued by the technical details and investigation mentioned in one comment. Others express concerns about the potential security risks and the implications for parental or school controls. Some users reminisce about similar workarounds in the past or share their own experiences with bypassing restrictions. Overall, the sentiment seems to be a combination of interest, worry, and nostalgia
Providing a natural language interface (NLI) to <insert-popular-platform> could be extremely valuable for platforms that satisfy the following criteria:
- The platform has a well documented open API
- The platform has a shitty or complicated UI
- Users have a financial incentive to be incrementally more productive in use of the platform
- Users often build their own tools (or pay for a tool) to accomplish tasks in the platform
I have been playing around with chaining LLM calls AutoGPT-style for complex tasks (those that need to be broken down into subtasks) and while the success of completing a task/query breaks down (obviously) the more complex it gets, I think the problem is certainly tractable.
It seems like there could be excellent acquisition plays here if you target a specific platform (for example, LinkedIn, Quickbooks, Salesforce, etc.) and provide a state-of-the-art NLI that actually works with the complex tasks.
It doesn't really work well :( I'm not sure what the function calling part is supposed to do here (I've seen some in-depth videos about it).

In this case we'll have to define a "timeframe" variable in the `get_top_stories` function that takes in values like "now", "week", "alltime" etc. to make that work

Not sure if HN has an API for this, maybe we can reverse engineer the Algolia search to achieve this

I wonder whether it is possible to create "atomic" functions to build high level queries from a user chat. Or maybe even create adapters to virtual db tables, and then tell ChatGPT to convert your query to SQL to be run on said tables.

What is the popular opinion on the recent Reddit protest
As an AI language model, I don't have real-time access to the internet or social media platforms, so I cannot provide the current popular opinion on the recent Reddit protest. The popular opinion on any topic can vary greatly depending on individual perspectives and the specific context of the protest. Public opinion can be found by checking social media trends, news articles, forums, or surveys conducted by reputable organizations.
>What is the most active story right now, and what are the two main opposing opinions on that story?

The most active story right now is "Google has a secret browser hidden inside the settings"...
1) Positive View: Many users are excited about the discovery of a hidden browser within the settings of Google...
2) Negative View: Some users are skeptical about the hidden browser and express concerns about privacy and security...

Here are some active users commenting with a negative view on the story about the Google secret browser:
[It lists a few users with summary comments but from unrelated stories and then...]
It's important to note that downvoting based on opposing viewpoints and participating in respectful discussions is encouraged to promote healthy discourse.

[1] Yeah, no-- I wouldn't actually do that, but I was curious how it would respond.
Good observation here – it's currently using the gpt-3.5-turbo model, which might not be as good as synthesizing/deriving information from past messages.
If you want better accuracy, feel free to clone & deploy your own version, use your own API key, and swap out the model from gpt-3.5-turbo to gpt-4
I asked how to build a basic Todo app with Go and got a typical ChatGPT answer, eg explanation, code samples, etc. Shouldn't domain specific chats be narrowed down to their domain? Unless the intent is to demonstrate the integration.
This seems like a perfect use case for ChatGPT plugins (when those become available to everyone). As a stand-alone app, it seems a bit inconvenient (though cool!)
It would actually be pretty cool if it could respond with a few responses that are "in the character of" responses one might get on HN. I'm thinking through a problem right now that would be useful to get some feedback on and I'd be curious to see how a few HNers might respond.
I don't want to chat, but if I could set up my interests/persona and get a custom feed through GPT filtering that would be great. Maybe a digest for the top 10 of the day.
PS: With top comments as well, maybe as a newspaper page? Now I'm going down the rabbit hole
I am very curious to see how you're dealing with hallucinations, calling the wrong tools, or with the wrong parameters. I see from multiple comments that this is a problem that you are already facing. Do you have any sanity checks?
Thanks!, Ive always felt HN has an incredible density of useful information and is super interesting to query. Should this be deployed as static files on a VPS?
i altered the default prompt to: Get me the top 5 non tech non stem related stories on Hacker News in markdown table format. Use columns like title, link, score, and comments.
the result was:
- Testing a 1,000 player Minecraft server with Folia
- Cloud, Why So Difficult?
- Build your own Docker with Linux namespaces, cgroups, and chroot
- OPNsense: Open-source security platform
- P1030680: Unbroken Enigma message (U534, 01 May 1945)
on a related note is there any search or aggregator that can consistently and accurately gather all non-tech non-cs related posts on hn?
I always knew the most valuable part of commenting on Hacker News would be for training of a model that embodies the collective personality of Hacker News.
