Show HN: Plexe – ML Models from a PromptHey HN! We’re Vaibhav and Marcello. We’re building Plexe (https://github.com/plexe-ai/plexe), an open-source agent that turns natural language task descriptions into trained ML models. Here’s a video walkthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUwCSglhcXY.There are all kinds of uses for ML models that never get realized because the process of making them is messy and convoluted. You can spend months trying to find the data, clean it, experiment with models and deploy to production, only to find out that your project has been binned for taking so long. There are many tools for “automating” ML, but it still takes teams of ML experts to actually productionize something of value. And we can’t keep throwing LLMs at every ML problem. Why use a generic 10B parameter language model, if a logistic regression trained on your data could do the job better?Our light-bulb moment was that we could use LLMs to generate task-specific ML models that would be trained on one’s own data.
