Show HN: Joi – speech-tech exploration led to AI girlfriend on Telegram (NSFW)https://joiaigirlfriend.comSince few month I've been exploring all kind of AIs. When it came to text-to-speech technologies, the reality of some of them (ElevenLabs here for instance) made me reconsider the way we could interact with AI. I started working on a Telegram bot, using both speech-to-text and text-to-speech technologies in order recreate a 'real' voice conversation with AI. In the meantime, I was exploring LLM models on HuggingFace, and APIs like their Inference API or even Replicate API to use these custom models, which I wanted to implement in a project as well, part of my exploration.This is where Joi's idea came - an AI girlfriend 'with benefits' (understand 'intimate talks' or 'uncensored AI' here) as a Telegram bot.For the ref: Joi is a character from BladeRunner 2049, an AI designed to be the ultimate companion, felt like a good fit.That's a side project, built over the weekend, but realised it could actually be of use for some, to fight loneliness and so.

Show HN: A ChatGPT TUI with custom botshttps://www.askmarvin.ai/guide/concepts/tui/Hi HN! We just shipped a full-featured TUI (Text User Interface) for chatting with your Marvin bots, powered by GPT 4 or GPT-3.5. Like all of Marvin, it's fully open-source and we hope you find it useful. To launch it, upgrade and run `marvin chat`.The TUI is built with Textual (https://github.com/textualize/textual/) and uses some of its newest features including background workers and modals. We've made base TUIs before but this is the first one that's a true "app" with many screens and coordinated global state. Happy to answer any questions about working with Textual - once it "clicked" it was surprisingly similar to building a traditional front end! Small note: Terminal.app on MacOS isn't great for TUIs, so while it'll work, we suggest an alternative terminal.One of our goals with the TUI was to integrate Marvin's bots into the familiar chat UX. Bots can have distinct personalities, instructions, and use plugins, so each one is like a mini "conversational application." You might knApr 8, 2023 7:10 PM

How we built a social network with No-Codehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35070143In the Fall of last year, we launched a social network for college students with No-Code.Here’s how we did it:Last summer (after having conversations with a few dozen college students), we stumbled across a very interesting insight:*80% of college students aren’t on Facebook anymore*.Sure, tools like Snapchat and Instagram exist that represent someone’s social graph, but there isn’t a central place for students to go get guidance from other peers. For students to even do simple transactions like exchanging textbooks, finding roommates, or buying sports tickets is messy.This gave us the idea that just maybe students were hungry for a new social network to fill the void Facebook left behind.Our goal was to create a digital community where students could discuss campus life, discover housing options, and buy/sell from other students.### Step 1: Build the PlatformTo make this happen, we started by setting up a (Circle)[https://circle.so/] community specifically for our first college, the UMar 8, 2023 3:27 PM

Show HN: I gained 50k users for my app with NO marketinghttps://paylinkz.app/Hi Hackernews,Last year around February, I found myself having to pay contractors for various services that they provided me as I completed my new home. An occurring question that kept coming up with each conversation was - how do you want me to pay you or do you have “X” payment app on your phone that I can send the cash to?I realized that some preferred Venmo, others preferred cash app - some had neither only relied on PayPal. Being the software engineer that I am, I figured why not build an app where a person can just list all their payment apps and then I can pick which ever worked for me. Similar to linktree but ONLY for payment appsSo I did just that, built the app - [https://paylinkz.app/](https://paylinkz.app/) and released it to the store without any fan fare - I didn’t even tell my close relatives because I could care less whether they used it or not. I also didn’t want any high expectations from anyone so did it in silence10 months later we have 50k users with $0 spent on adJan 10, 2023 1:07 PM

To see, mainly how we can adapt to this new world of Elon leading Twitter with its high potential and many risks as well.A number of things change, now that Elon is running Twitter. First off, that's horrible news for many.
