Hi, I'm a non-native English speaker, and YC interviews are known for requiring quick and concise answers. This is a much bigger challenge for me than for native speakers. The best way to improve is, of course, practice. Thanks to OpenAI's real-time API, I can train anytime, knowing it's just AI. It's far more comfortable for me to make mistakes this way, and when properly prompted, the LLM can be quite critical. By default, it tends to be overly optimistic, calling every silly idea brilliant. I'd appreciate if you could try it out. This app was created in just one day over a weekend. The images are generated using Flux 1.1-pro. Regarding the OpenAI key, it's only on the frontend and isn't sent to our backend.

It is a good idea. Really, one of the better use cases I've seen for the current state of AI.

But it also seems like you are trying to use this weekend project to market your platform. Which is fine, but doing a "Show HN" post saying you have an AI platform you want people to see, with an example of what an be done in a day on it would be a more transparent way to go about this.

Thanks, I understand. This is a free tool and doesn’t have much to do with the main platform at the moment. Langtail is primarily for testing LLM apps.
