Show HN: Botchat – a privacy-preserving, multi-bot AI chat tool

This started as a hobby project, curious if others find it useful. Feedback welcome!botchat is a privacy-preserving, multi-bot chat tool that lets you interact with multiple AI models simultaneously.Give bots personas, so they look at your question from multiple angles. Leverage the strengths of different models in the same chat. And most importantly, protect your data.botchat never stores your conversations or attachments on any servers and, if you are using our keys (the default experience), y

Show HN: Client-side encrypted AI detector using model ensembling

Hi HN, I’m Oscar, a Year 8 student from Australia who enjoys messing around with computers and AI.I recently built an AI detector to build on my skills in computer science. I entered the prototype into the Oliphant Science Awards which is a local science competition (writing a 4000-word report on the methodology) and ended up winning, so I decided to polish it into a real web service that the world can make use of.I noticed that schools and businesses are rushing to use AI detectors, but most c

The Gemini AI Studio "Context Tax": How a 10-word prompt cost me £121

I’ve been utilizing Google’s Gemini 1.5 Pro via the AI Studio front-end to develop a new platform. The 1M+ context window is, technically speaking, a game-changer for "stitching" together a 55,000-line codebase. However, I recently discovered a predatory billing architecture that I’m calling the "Context Tax."If you use the AI Studio UI, you might be walking into a massive bill without a single warning.Here is how it happened, and the UK/EU privacy "pro-tip" I

Show HN: Topas-DSPL – A 15M param AI that solves hard reasoning tasks(ARC-AGI-2)

Author here.We’ve been frustrated by the "Scaling Hypothesis" (just make the model bigger). We believe the issue with current AI isn't size, it's architecture.We just open-sourced TOPAS-DSPL. It’s a tiny model (~15M params) that uses a Dual-Stream architecture (separating Logic from Execution) to solve the ARC-AGI-2 benchmark.It achieves 24% accuracy on the hard evaluation set, which beats many models 1000x its size.The repo includes the full training code, data augmentation

I write and ship code ~20–50x faster than I did 5 years ago

I’ve been meaning to write this up because it’s been surprisingly repeatable, and I wish someone had described it to me earlier.Over the last year or so, my development speed relative to my own baseline from ~2019 is easily 20x, sometimes more. Not because I type faster, or because I cut corners, but because I changed how I use AI.The short version: I don’t use AI inside my editor. I use two AIs in parallel, in the browser, with full context.Here’s the setup.I keep two tabs open:One AI that acts

Show HN: VividManga – AI-based manga coloring focused on line art consistency

Show HN: VividManga – AI-based manga coloring focused on line art consistencyHi HN,I built VividManga because most general image colorization models perform poorly on manga-style black-and-white line art — they often blur lines or destroy panel structure.VividManga focuses specifically on manga coloring, using an image-to-image workflow tuned for clean line preservation, flat color regions, and consistent shading.The core idea is to treat manga pages differently from natural images: - prioritize

Show HN: A small AI tool I built to speed up outfit changes in product photos

I'm an Amazon seller, not a designer.One thing that kept slowing me down was making small, repetitive changes to product photos—mainly swapping outfits or variants. Photoshop can do it, but for this kind of work it felt heavy. A simple change often turned into a lot of clicking, masking, and exporting.Like most people, I'd already tried using ChatGPT and other image tools for this, but they didn't fit well into a repeatable product photo workflow.I started experimenting with image

Show HN: PixelPointingBenchmark – Simple tests reveal surprising gaps

We built a small open-source benchmark to test how well vision-enabled LLMs handle pixel-level pointing on screens. Instead of complex UI screenshots, we use synthetic images with basic shapes and clean backgrounds to isolate spatial reasoning and coordinate accuracy.The results were surprising:Many top models miss by tens to hundreds of pixels on trivial tasks (e.g., center of a purple circle or red square). High run-to-run variance in some models (different answers on the same image/promp

Ask HN: How to transition into AI career with limited opportunities?

Hi HN,As I look back at my career, vs what I want to do vs what I see in the news, I feel there is a massive disconnection. I don't see a clear way for me to jump into work that aligns with my interests. Perhaps it's a limitation in my mind, and there is evidence here of people who have managed to successfully jump into a tangent industry.My situation, in gist, is that I’m a 35-year-old who started late in tech and has been working CRUD-type work at a financial services company for the
