• Ask HN: What have you built with LLMs?

  I built a native all-in-one AI client called BoltAI[0] It’s one of the first AI clients I think. I’ve been working on it for 16 months and shipped more than 100 releases. It started with the idea of invoking an LLM within the Apple Notes app. I hate going back-and-forth between the Notes app and ChatGPT web app. So I built the “AI inline” feature where I can trigger a keyboard shortcut and it would send the prompt... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Ask HN: What are you using to parse PDFs for RAG?

  My apps are native Mac apps [0] [1] so naturally I use the native SDK for that. Apple provides PDFKit framework to work with PDFs and it works really well. For scanned documents, I use the Vision framework to OCR the content. Some additional content cleaning is still required but overall I don’t need any other third-party libraries.

• Ask HN: Should I subscribe to ChatGPT Plus if we can get it for free on Bing?

  It depends a lot on the GPT client (third-party application). My app (BoltAI) does support web search (via Google Search) and web browsing (built-in) but not chat w/ PDF functionality. I built another app[0] specifically for that use case. So I guess if you need an all-in-one kind of functionality then ChatGPT could be a better choice.
