People are excited and doing things, that’s wonderful. What are you doing besides complaining?

Everything starts small.

Also, the most important thing about a service is attracting customers, not the tech stack under it. Facebook was made with PHP, Twitter famously failed constantly while struggling with user growth.

I’d much rather have tons of users with a tech stack that is a wrapper for a bunch of other stuff, than have super impressive in-house tech and no users.

I don't think people are excited about making API calls. They see a land grab and are clamoring for their piece. As for what I'm doing, I work on my own products that, I hope, push the envelope, at least slightly. And I have seen AI companies that are doing good work using OpenAI's tools, but this isn't one of them.

That’s awesome. Please post about it on HN, share what you are doing and get people’s feedback.

But please don’t just throw shade at others because they don’t conform to your view of what’s praiseworthy.

We can all support each other and give feedback/advice.

Out of curiosity, could you share those envelope pushing products of yours?

I would, but then I'd sacrifice the anonymity of this HN account that I like to shitpost from.

I am excited. I need this tool professionally and I don't give a damn how it works underneath if it can work for me and give results.
