    I just asked it to create a torque spec diagram of the suspension for my car, a subject I'm pretty familiar with. It amazingly drew everything correctly, displayed the correct torque figures and allowed me to click on individual components to zoom in further, providing more specs.

    Genuinely one of the most impressive demos I've tried in a long time. I was able to use it almost like a living version of a classic illustrated Haynes workshop manual.

    Interesting idea, but just about everything is failing for me. Probably the HN hug of death happening.

      Gemini generateContent request failed: { "error": { "code": 429, "message": "You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details. For more information on this error, head to: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/rate-limits. To monitor your current usage, head to: https://ai.dev/rate-limit.

    Very cool project ! I fear this might have a pretty high hallucination potential (with current models) the deeper you dig into the base image/context and clicking on potentially unrelated elements in the image. Nevertheless, love the idea.

    Cool project, but just a side thought I was having about how do people have resources and the money to make things like this and make it avl for public, I mean it's fair to say they have their own GPUs or if they are using api keys for gpt or Gemini with enterprise subsidized inference

    But still coming from a frugal background I still cannot wrap my head around this

      I didn't want to even try it because of similar. ("immigrant mentality" they call it around here. it's not a pejorative. TLDR: frugal because starting life over)

      and it's really slow. I didn't end up waiting. Not a slight to the creators, let them create. It's just really freaking slow I didn't wait.

    Couldn't get it to load (probably getting hammered right now) but the concept is interesting. Feels like one of those things where the tech needs to get 10x cheaper before it actually makes sense as a product.

    This seems like an expensive product to subject to the HN hug of death.

    The sample videos on the tweet are very very cool.

    Unfortunately it didn’t really work for me, I’ll try it out in a few days when the traffic’s died down.

    Interesting idea and cool demo.

    For this to really be practical you'd need a way to run networks many times faster and more efficiently than today's GPUs. This is too slow to work even with cloud GPUs powering it.

    Maybe someday.

    It looks pretty nice - reminds me of Dorling Kindersley books. But the graphics, whilst stylised, are pretty hit-and-miss. Great idea, just a bit too soon.

    The worst part of this sort of slop is the attention it squanders by being glacially slow.

    In the age of such enormous computing power, this sort of thing is pure waste.

    MS Encarta CDs were faster and more in-depth.

      Maybe it has an "act like a 56k modem connection" directive in its internal prompt. /s

    So cool! Love the exploration into new interfaces.

    This is one of the more unique ideas i've encountered in a long time

      It's perfect for toddlers (I mean that in a good way), it's the infinite answer to the infinite "What's that?" series of questions they can generate. Make everything a hyperlink and it's almost like a LLM mind map of knowledge.

    This would make an amazing educational tool

    This is real nice, wow. Congratulations.

    This very well could be a sneak-peek into how educational resources might look like in the future.
