I’ve been working on https://computeprices.com for almost 2 years.

My goal is to better understand the economics of AI and make something useful in the process.

(Coming soon: kWh prices and robot prices)

Mostly built with claude code with a dash of codex.

A recent, useful unlock in the process has been a daily CC routine to check the health of the 53 price collectors in the project.

Also check out his nanochat repo. I used the repo, claude and shadeform to train my own mini model for about $300. Would have been less but I screwed up and let the cloud gpu rental run for a few hours even though the training run errored out.

Of course the model was dumber than GPT2 but still it was a great learning experience.

I think i saw videos of drones w loudspeakers or dropping flyers w a telegram QR code but I don’t have sources.

25/75%. Plenty of stores are owned directly by McDonalds corp.

Do you see any benefit in doing this locally versus having Codex review the PR Claude generates?

Ha I just SPECed out a version of this. I have a simple static website that I want a few people to be able to update.

So, we will give these 3 or 4 trusted users access to an on-site chat interface to request updates.

Next, a dev environment is spun up, agent makes the changes, creates PR and sends branch preview link back to user.

Sort of an agent driven CMS for non-technical stakeholders.

Let’s see if it works.

I don’t think so. IIRC the desktop app is called Claude and it has a code option in the UI.

For over a year now, I’ve been working on Compute Prices (https://computeprices.com).

It’s been a great way for me to better understand the cloud GPU industry, learn about data collection, normalization and use agentic coding to build a side project.

One thing I’m working on is distinguishing spot vs on demand prices and listing those separately. Also, including inference pricing for non-text AI models.

What features or data would you like to see me add next?

This is really insightful. Thank you.

Your first two points jive with my intuition that an agents primaries should be a code execution sandbox, mounted files and git.

If you have any practical examples to share I’m sure a ton of people would appreciate it.

Can you say a bit more about evals and your approach?
