This was a very interesting implementation indeed. We took a RAG + Custom prompt approach to efficiently and accurately query 900 various first name/last name combinations.
Biggest challenge - name similarities. How to match phonetically similar names.
@DavidKPiano Same thing, isn't it? Most senior engineers moved to a "management" role, but instead of managing 5 devs they now manage Claude (or LLM of choice).
Not at all, but genuine question: do you review AND test the generated code before merging, or just the prompt?
Because one is code review with extra steps, the other is yolo. And PRs arenโt just about reading code, they assume the author actually tested what theyโre submitting.
@dhh Best combo is hardwiring wiz lightbulbs (or similar wifi) directly to analogue switches. That way you can operate things via an app OR a regular light switch. It was pretty obvious to me that you don't want fully digital basic operators in-house.
The "coding is gone in X months/AI eating our lunch" group has been relentlessly trying to bury technical roles for the last two years, while failing to realize most people, including the authors of those tweets barely know how their oven works. :)
@eurofounder Matthias, I see you posted this at 6.48am which I'm assuming is outside of your work hours. A report to the appropriate authorities will follow. Unacceptable.
Next time please clock in first, don't be a barbarian.

i'm very open to feedback and suggestions!

@CasJam Ok that's a fair point that I haven't considered indeed.
It has also been the case / trend pre-AI with tools like Framer, which actually made modularity in no-code websites builders a lot easier.
Today weโre excited to introduce Bland TTS, the first voice AI to cross the uncanny valley.
Several months ago, our team solved one-shot style transfer of human speech. That means, from a single, brief MP3, you can clone any voice or remix another cloneโs style (tone, cadence, or pronunciations, etc.).
With Bland TTS:
โข Creatives can turn text into realistic sound effects or AI voice tracks with precise control over style and emotion.
โข Developers can plug in our TTS API to build voice apps fully customized to their liking.
โข Enterprises can launch AI-driven support lines that sound so natural โ customers will save you as a contact (try talking to it on our site).
