Show HN: I built a tool showing how AI providers (should) throttle their modelsOP here: this project was born out of the frustration/paranoia that AI providers are throttling their models when their server load is too high. So, I set out to model and study the problem mathematically to understand what was happening, what I found was quite surprising.The idea seems natural: as the data center demand increases momentarily through the day, throttling their models (either using a quantized version, reducing the context window or lowering the tier of the model to a smaller one) seems appealing as the model in principle uses less electricity. The problem is that this can cause in fact the opposite effect: as users are trying to solve a question, if the AI gives a bad answer, the user is likely to keep re-asking. On the AI provider side this looks paradoxical: throttling to a lower model creates in fact more demand for their data center.This problem is even worse for agentic workflows, as these are more likely to create a re-ask storm, and maybe explains the outages and

Bill Gates is deeply worried about AI, and he’s no longer staying quietBill Gates has been reflecting a lot on AI lately, and the process has triggered a stark awakening. Once a staunch AI optimist, the Microsoft cofounder is now deeply pessimistic about what AI means for our collective future. Having been conspicuously quiet on AI issues recently, Gates is back with a nearly 6,000-word essay seeking […]

Show HN: Game to see if you're over-/under-confident in your own knowledgeI wrote a simple "trivia" game to get a sense about how well calibrated you are in terms of how well you know things: https://est.alejo.chYou get ten simple "what happened first" questions and give a confidence level (for each answer). The game tracks your success rates per confidence level and gives you a calibration graph/table (e.g., "you consistently over-estimate your success rate"). You can play multiple times to see aggregated statistics.After 60 games (480 questions), I found out that I am relatively well-calibrated, though I should ~never bet under 60% (for this specific type of binary questions): https://alejo.ch/3mkThe game is open source (GPLv3 at https://github.com/alefore/estimate) and it's just static files. There's no server-side logic: the game log/stats are stored in your browser (local storage API). It's pure TypeScript, no framework.You can read more about it on https://alejo.ch/3m9Just figured I'd share in case others find it useful and/or have suggestions to impro

Show HN: CanvasForMusic – I made a free Spotify Canvas maker that doesn't suckHello I know most of you are devs, but if you also make music, this is for you.I've been on a hunt lately of finding tools for artists centred around promoting and posting music and rebuilding them with more intention. If it helps me promote my own music easier, it will surely help others too.Recently, I was having a look around at the top search ranking Spotify Canvas Maker tools for artists and found that they all sucked. They produced generic looking canvas videos using stock images or stock videos and didn't really have any options that actually looked decent to add to your song on Spotify. It's a small detail but you may as well just leave the static cover art on the song rather than have a corny looking canvas on Spotify.I'm a big fan of getting more quality out into the world, easier. Not just more quantity. There was already too much slop and low effort tools in the creative world, well before AI entered the picture.The idea was to make it as low friction as possible for the ar
