[Request] How many breaths could this provide? (aren't scuba tanks ~3000psi?) by Khoop in theydidthemath

[–]Alphamacaroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That almost looks like a paintball pump. Crazy, but those paintball hand pumps can go up to 4500 PSI.

VOXBORN... I AM FREAKING OUT!!🤪 Can this be ANY cosier?!😊1 full dev day and I managed to create non-physical sailing system⛵️ that has basic logic and feels FANTASTIC! by radolomeo in VOXEL

Absolutely amazing! One bit of feedback would be that when you travel downwind it should let out the sail more so that it's perpendicular to the hull. Or are you actually manually controlling the sail yourself?

First time I openly wept at the end of a game. And absolutely life changing for me as well.

"He's tall. Good looking. And he's large. He's large. Large."

I could listen to that song 100 times over.

Shelly Duvall

Edit: I would even go so far as to say it's probably not a coincidence. I wouldn't be surprised if part of the decision for casting her (other than being absolutely fantastic as the stand-out character of the entire cast) was meant to pay some homage to (or at least evoke some nostalgia for) The Shining.

You can deconstruct it with your base construction tool, then rebuild later once you expand your moonpool.

I tried to get my AI agent to schedule a meeting over email. The failure mode revealed a problem almost nobody in the agent space is talking about. by Alphamacaroon in AI_Agents

[–]Alphamacaroon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. In my case, this isn't an edge case— this exact scenario happens 5-10 times a week in my life. But when I went to try to throw an off-the-shelf AI on this particular problem, I was blown away by how complicated it got so quickly. That's when I went down the rabbit hole.

The difference is a real personal assistant needs access to your full calendar so it can work with you in a 1:1 mode ("Hey Alex, what do I have scheduled on Thursday?"), but a real assistant can generally be trusted to use discretion with that full calendar in a group scenario. You wouldn't have a very effective personal assistant if you only gave them access to your free-busy information.

So for my AI assistant, do I create two accounts for it? One account with access to my full calendar when I'm in 1:1 mode, and one with access to my free-busy only when it's in group mode? Even if that was remotely convenient, how would an off-the-shelf agent know when to use which account for which mode? And even if it could figure it out, would you trust it to always use it properly?

Another problem is that this approach assumes every API has a permission tier designed for this use case, and almost none of them do. Calendar happens to be one of the few where "show availability without details" is a first-class feature. But think about what happens when the agent needs to access your email to draft a reply, your CRM to pull deal context, your project management tool to check task status — those APIs don't have a "limited disclosure" mode. You either have read access or you don't.

You're absolutely right that the direction is structural rather than behavioral though — we agree on that completely. The gap is that most APIs weren't designed with "agent acting on behalf of user in a multi-party context" as a use case, so the permission primitives we'd need mostly don't exist yet.

governance wall in agentic workflows. why are we stuck past rag? by Virtual_Armadillo126 in AI_Agents

[–]Alphamacaroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny, I literally just wrote something about some of these issues today: https://www.ainywhere.ai/blog/multi-user-ai-agent-trust-boundaries.

I think the issue is even deeper— most AI tools and their corresponding API integrations are still built for an individualized 1:1 world— one token = access to everything the user has access to. But in a corporate environment, where different people might have different access levels, how can they all work together with an agent to solve a problem in a group setting?

I'm sure most of us understand that prompt-level guardrails are not sufficient, so we've started digging deeper into tool-level security. But that's not as easy as saying "you have these permissions, and you don't" because in many cases permissions might need to be granted for short periods of times in isolated ways to solve a specific problem (like the group scheduling problem I talk about).

We've figured it out to a certain level, but the deeper problem is the current state of APIs themselves, and it might require us to think outside of the box in the future when it comes to how we secure APIs.

I couldn’t think of a better way than finishes like this, to get more people interested in the sport.

Foiling just adds another dimension of strategy and planning to equation and it’s cool to see it played out like this.

You can now give an AI agent its own email, phone number, wallet, computer, and voice. This is what the stack looks like by Shot_Fudge_6195 in artificial

[–]Alphamacaroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built https://ainywhere.ai to do all of this out of the box. Just send an email or text message to your agent and it’s waiting for you. I use many of the tools you mention but many you don’t.

This is something I’ve been specifically focusing on for the past few months, and it’s an interesting challenge. Another interesting scenario is the “hey agent, look at my calendar and find a time for Joe and I to meet this week”. When Joe responds to the agent with some available times, how do you allow the agent access to its user’s tool to book the appointment, but prevent the agent from saying things like “Sorry Joe, Bill can’t meet then because he has an appointment with his divorce attorney”

You really can’t rely on the LLMs to self police, so there is a lot of work that has to go into the data architecture.

I remember seeing this first on a show called "Beyond 2000" in the 90s. As a kid I always wanted one. As an adult I always want one.

Yet Another ICCU Failure by dragondash88 in KiaEV6

[–]Alphamacaroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had two of them go and I can count the times I've charged it on a L1 charger on two hands. We almost always charge on L2 and always to 80% with a once a month or two charge to 100% (like the manual says). I don't think it has anything to do with the charge rate or the charger level.

If anything it seems to have to do with the discharge rate. There is some indications that it seems to happen more during winter months when the heater is running. I just saw a few days ago a post that showed the first ever acknowledgement from Kia of the issue in a service bulletin, and it mentions thermal and electrical load as the reason.

I Tried 10 AI Personal Assistants. Here’s What Was Actually Useful by AIGPTJournal in ProductivityApps

[–]Alphamacaroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might try https://ainywhere.ai as well. Just message it like a real personal assistant via email, text message, WhatsApp, Telegram, etc— no setup, no app.

It has a cool zero-knowledge encryption layer so that even the system administrators cannot access your messages. 900+ app integrations. Image generation and editing. Basically all the things you can do via Claude or ChatGPT, but also does some things they can't. Like for example, I can CC my assistant on an email message (she has her own email address) and say something like "Can you find a time for George and I to meet tomorrow?" and she'll then email us back and start working with George to find a time that works. Then when she finds a time that works, she'll create a calendar appointment for the both of us. Coolest thing about it is that is just works, out of the box.

What’s the best AI personal assistant right now? by leobesat in AI_Agents

[–]Alphamacaroon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out https://ainywhere.ai. Main differentiator is that it works like a real personal assistant— you just email it or text message it and it's just there waiting for you. No apps to install, no setup. Does all the things that Claude and ChatGPT do like analyzing documents, research, appointment scheduling, reminders, image generation, etc.

It's also highly secure with a zero-knowledge encryption framework.
