  • I don’t want to be that guy, but why do I need a middleman for something llm do out of the box?

    Forget the API. Even search engines have returned these results for years.

    I can potentially see an angle with SLMs integrating with a self hosted version of this API, but it’s a bit niche.

  • Solving this issue a core problem for humanity, and it goes hand in hand with the need for a public service.

    I'm actually working to do this at ultra low cost as a public service like Wikipedia or musicbrainz.

    I'll be publishing global costs to serve and letting people donate to support.

  • This is pretty cool, does it scrape Instagram? A lot of events where I live (Toronto) are posted there and not many other places. It's a real problem if you don't want to spend time on that app.

  • This feels hard to maintain and keep up-to-date, but I would definitely use it! Great idea.

  • Which sources does it support? Discoverability is a huge problem for smaller events, as most get posted on IG, and it’s hard to even find them through IG.

    I started relying on a mix of Muse/ChatGPT/Gemini depended on which data sources I want to combine, as they all seem to have special deals with different sources.
