Launch HN: Credal.ai (YC W23) – Data Safety for Enterprise AIhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36326525Hi Hacker News! We’re Ravin and Jack, the founders of Credal.ai (https://www.credal.ai/). We provide a Chat UI and APIs that enforce PII redaction, audit logging, and data access controls for companies that want to use LLMs with their corporate data from Google Docs, Slack, or Confluence. There’s a demo video here: https://www.loom.com/share/2b5409fd64464dc9b5b6277f2be4e90f?....One big thing enterprises and businesses are worried about with LLMs is “what’s happening to my data”? The way we see it, there are three big security and privacy barriers companies need to solve:1. Controlling what data goes to whom: the basic stuff is just putting controls in place around customer and employee PII, but it can get trickier when you also want to be putting controls in place around business secrets, so companies can ensure the Coca Cola recipe doesn’t accidentally leave the company.2. Visibility: Enterprise IT wants to know exactly what data was shared by whom, when, at what time, and what the moJun 14, 2023 2:26 PM

Ask HN: Application Focussed AI Learninghttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36322424I’m a senior leader with a technical background as an engineer and development manager. I build with React/Rails in my spare time but my current job is not at all technical.My role is changing at my request to look at ways we as a business could apply AI. It’ll be exploratory, with 2 devs working under me to build prototypes and experiments.I’m a big believer that a technical manager or leader should understand the technology, with bonus points for being able to build with it.It’s worth saying that we don’t expect to be creating our own models, rather building on top of others’ using APIs, fine tuning, prompts, vector databases and similar.There’s lots of good developer focussed learning. I’ll run through the basics there.However I’d like to learn how businesses are applying AI and am seeking out how best to discover this.I see MIT Sloan and other institutions have short courses that appear to offer what I’m looking for [1].

Why are many of the biggest web frameworks in dynamically typed langs?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36216957Django, Rails, Lavarel, Phoenix … Is static typing less useful in Web development? Do these dynamic languages enable better dev experience (than frameworks in statically typed langs like Spring, ASP.net)?I have no experience in building big web apps and I would like to learn one of those big frameworks that come with a lot out of the box. Kind of curious to try Phoenix because Elixir seems fun and tooling around it seems good. On the other hand, I can’t really imagine not having types, so I’m thinking maybe I should try Spring boot with Kotlin instead (type system seems really nice).Anyone has some thoughts on this? Not looking for general static/dynamic typing discussion, just want to know what makes a good web framework.Jun 6, 2023 6:18 PM

Potential Metallic Orb Designhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36183550Yesterday's article (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36170105) on flying metallic orbs caught my eye, so I decided to ask ChatGPT how this could be designed. It came up with a design that seems plausible to me (a non-expert), essentially using gyroscopes to induce controllable spin, and uses the Magnus effect to allow the orb to bend through the air like a soccer ball. Wanted to get Hacker New's take on whether this design is possible.Structure and Composition: The orb's structure is a sphere composed of strong, lightweight materials akin to those used in modern aircraft or spacecraft. These materials are capable of withstanding the pressures and forces experienced during flight while also minimizing the orb's overall weight.Buoyancy: The orb is filled with a lighter-than-air gas such as helium or hydrogen, which provides the necessary lift. This is a similar concept to what's used in airships or weather balloons. The buoyancy offsets the weight of the orb and its internal componeJun 4, 2023 6:34 AM

You can see our use case, where we implemented Open Fire in the NextJS repo taking down build time from 1 hour 17 minutes to 26 minutes which is a 66 % of improvement without any engineering effort! [1]The value of a CI/CD Pipeline is inversely proportional to how long the pipeline takes to run and is a limiting factor for companies to release quickly and often.For a little bit of background, I have been working in the CI/CD space for the last 9 years in small startups, my own CI/CD startup for mobile games, and big enterprises like PayPal and Binance, and you see the same pattern emergesIn today's life developers are pretty good when they're building new feaMay 27, 2023 9:50 PM
