Really cool - keep at it.

Could you give an example of these datasets?

1. GPT4 "500 tough professions w/ hardship involved"
2. Multiply that with "500 shifts in <profession> or <industry> regulations> since 2000"
3. Get inspired to come up with - grumpy fisherman mad about mooring fees, dog walkers upset about walking limits, 10x increases in flytipping in blackpool
4. As your ideation improves, train a better gpt.
Frankly all those FB groups (min. names) are probably in the GPT training set, just a case of finding good prompts to get inspiration.

Often 40+ yr old people complain about problems that you can solve e.g. vet technicians don't like veterinary software - you can fix that somehow.

Some starting points:
- Find old datasets (hn.algolia.com "datasets", use huggingface, search arxiv)
- Use weird search engines, e.g. exa.ai (searches based on embeddings vs. google's pagerank/keywords) + google dorks. weird input = weird output
- mix 2 ideas you see - look at showcase channels on discord and pages on random frameworks, things people are building at Buildspace
- Find old facebook groups with lots of grumpy members posting regularly
These are just random strategies I use before I make things I post on twitter (https://twitter.com/joshelgar), but they work pretty well for coming up with fun projects.

Why are they benchmarking it with 20+10 steps vs. 50 steps for the other models?

Sharing another weekend project here - every "Launch HN" post ever made, coloured according to how many points they received.

I've open-sourced it here:

The tech stack was NextJS, Tailwind + Vercel.

1. An infinite crafting game: https://foodformer.com
2. An embeddings-based job search engine: https://searchflora.com
3. I used LLMs to caption a training set of 1 million Minecraft skins, then finetuned Stable Diffusion to generate minecraft skins from a prompt: https://multi.skin

Inspired by Neal's "Infinite Craft" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39205020), I made a food-based version. You can use the sidebar to create a new food and click or drag the example ones.
