Get involved in a novel AI project(partnership or investment)
 

well, in short: about a year ago i thought of a new thing, and i told my colleague at the time that soon enough someone will create such a thing and make a killing... then one thing led to another and few weeks later i decided to focus all my attention on building that thing.

workload, complexity, ETAs were misjudged slightly, this has been at least full-time and a half endeavour for me. i do try to outsource some of the work but often my ocd / adhd kicks in - 'this has to be perfect!' now ~8 months later the thing is up and running... and it works(as in generates sales)! and there is so much more to do, my to-do list has grown to 20+ a5 pages... bla bla bla and all the rest of it...

...aaand i ran out of money :1orglaugh not in a huggles way, i can and will manage to keep growing this thing in any case. but i've launched projects with financial backing in the past - i find money is very useful haha.

it's an app / website(adult pwa, vanilla version for app stores), aff program in the works, saas in the plans. the idea is not as novel today, the implementation is, and scope. it is still a new thing. there is much potential.

looking for a business partner ideally, who would get involved and work on the project as well. investment also needed - hit me up if this sounds interesting to you:

thanks :thumbsup

WTF are you talking about ??

Spend $120, throw the details into Claude and have it code everything out... Then spend your time on refactoring and debugging as needed.

The only real programmers weve hired for the last 12 months are ones who can refactor existing code and make it 'work' how we want it to, rather than how AI guesses it should work, saved us a small fortune.

I send u a mail.

sex robots !!

claude code is amazing, it pretty much runs my computers, servers and keeps me on track(part of a productivity setup that actually works in my case).

useful info: they don’t rate limit their $200 max plan. it’s listed as 4x more requests than the $100 plan, but it actually is limitless, pretty sure. cursor used to do that few months ago too…

You run into rate limiting on the $100 plan? I have not yet. Well, not with Claude Code, i do get rate limited on the web version of Claude. Claude Code is 50% cheaper than Cursor running the same model for me.

yep, four times per day. $100 plan is not very good for heavy use.

We've not experienced any limitations on the $100 plan as of yet and its pretty much running damn near 24/7 writing code and pumping out products.

We're about to start running it through the API maybe thats where the limits come in?

I'm finding Trae/Solo very good and a great price - It makes things like API integration a breeze - I found out it has Stripe and Supabase integration out of the box - That alone saved me from a few nervous breakdowns...

hmmm, are you using opus or sonnet?

for api access you get charged by tokens, and that is when it may get pricey :) no limits though.

the Chinese have your codebase :1orglaugh

I hope they like gay porn...

Both intermittently depending on the project tbh.

For lighter code we use Sonnet, more complex stuff, Opus, just depends on the projects application, programming language and whether its in-house or saleable, our in house programmer spends a few hours tweaking, cleaning and testing the code to make sure it works how we need it to, which frees his time up to focus on more important projects, rather than spending weeks/months writing and debugging.

ChatGPT is used for consumer products primarily where we use Claude for more B2B solutions, both in-house and commerce specific here in the UK market. We're currently in contact with a government dept about them allowing us to use their logo on an age verification project, it just sucks the gov here is slow af, so who knows how long thats going to take to actually happen (or rather how many elections its going to be before the end of the year :1orglaugh).

We priced out Claude vs. ChatGPT and the difference between both for our specific consumer usage is only around $0.08 per project, my real concern is speed, we're currently creating upwards of 1000 new products a week with GPT (using an application we had Clause code from the ground up lol) and its running us around $0.12 per, the main issue we're running into with GPT is that it isnt hitting word counts enough with a 20-30% loss on target. A few test runs on Claude and that figure was 5-10% over word count on the exact same specs :)

We just have to add a module into the existing application that gives it an option to utilize Claude too, instead of just GPT so we can split products based on the niche to specific models, as well as a few more JSON templates for image creation.

At $14-$18 per sale, the profit margins are exceptional (even after distributors cut) and its allowing us to expand our product lines significantly.

I genuinely wish I'd have made the choice to go the AI route a lot sooner than I did instead of questioning its long-term business viability, some of the projects I/we have been putting off for a year or two are finally reaching fruition thanks to using AI to do the grunt work on all the time consuming crap we do on the daily.

It just sucks the distributors we use all have CSRF on their submission forms, or we'd have had an application created to do the submissions too, thats legit what takes us the most time in getting product to market right now :Oh crap

Coding with Claude via API is not cheap at all. Use Claude code for that. It’s different than making API calls.

Oh sorry, we're running it on text based projects, not code via API, apologies for not being clear on that.

It just seems to stick to the minimum word counts much better than GPT does.

bump! i am not much of a sales person but i do feel confident saying that we will make a lot of money :)

You all are taking "AI mumbo jumbo", which I do NOT understand but can anybody make a 15 sec. clip of two babes going at it? Simple answer: yes or no. I would commission 60 to 100 shots.

You are an influencer, man . . .

Not a huge EddyTheDog fan but that was funny

I'd rather hire real babes to go at it so we can all go out for sushi afterwards.

I hire and shoot these babes for over 20 years, but the quality in recent years went down and I would not eat that "sushi" if you paid me :1orglaugh

:Oh crap...

Burger, PJ Chang's, sushi, whatever.

Curious, what do you mean by quality going down?

Poor Huggles 🤣

Tattoos, plastic tits, Botox lips, brooms for eyelashes, and generally unappealing overall look. All the good looking ones are on OF or want 1000 Euros just to get out of bed. :2 cents:

Still plenty of no-makeup nerds wearing yoga pants at us/west coast UNI. My main source back in the day. Some would even be free for free.
