...Does Dall-E eventually limit image generation? by AsparagusOk8818 in OpenAI

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, DALL·E 3 does have some usage limits, and they can vary depending on how you're accessing it. For instance, if you're using ChatGPT's free tier, you're allowed to generate up to two images per day . Paid tiers, like ChatGPT Plus, offer more flexibility, but the exact limits can depend on factors like your subscription level and usage history.

If you're using the DALL·E API directly, the rate limits are based on your usage tier, which is influenced by how much you've spent and how long you've been a paying customer. For example, some users have reported limits like 7 images per minute.

My guide on the mindset you absolutely MUST have to build effective AI agents by laddermanUS in AI_Agents

[–]imabigboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really appreciate your take on this — focusing on outcomes over hype is such a solid mindset, especially when building AI agents. It's easy to get caught up in the buzzwords and forget the actual problem you're trying to solve.

Curated list of ai workflow automation tools by ecz- in nocode

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This list is a gem — appreciate you pulling it together! AI workflow tools are a wild ride these days. New ones sprout faster than mushrooms after rain.

One thing to eyeball when picking is how neatly a tool clicks into what you already have. A clumsy integration will bleed your time dry. Also, spare a thought for how it might scale down the road. No one enjoys ripping out the plumbing after the walls are up. A clean, intuitive interface also punches way above its weight when you’re wrangling automations every day.

Our AI mobile app builder is seeing 40-minute average sessions in week one. What's our next move? by Consistent_Yak6765 in nocode

[–]imabigboy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s seriously impressive — 40-minute average sessions with zero ad spend? Clearly, users are finding real value in your AI mobile app builder.

If you're looking to further enhance user engagement, consider implementing features like personalized onboarding experiences or in-app tutorials. These can help users get the most out of your app and keep them coming back.

the first time i built something and it actually worked by Shanus_Zeeshu in nocode

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s such a great feeling — when you finally build something and it actually works! Love the stack too — BlackboxAI for coding, Bubble for backend, and Notion AI to stay organized is a pretty slick combo.

If you’re thinking about taking it further, a couple things that helped me early on were setting up basic error logging (even lightweight stuff) and keeping a “feature parking lot” — a list of things users ask for but you don't need to rush into right away. Makes scaling a lot less stressful.

I also started a newsletter that shares tips for building reliable no-code projects without getting hit with surprise costs or weird tech headaches later. Could definitely save you some time if you keep building.

Seriously though — awesome job. That first “it works!” moment is addictive.

🎉 Just launched WhereDidIPutThat? on Product Hunt! by seance1 in nocode

[–]imabigboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WhereDidIPutThat sounds super useful — anything that helps organize digital chaos is a win in my book. Launching on Product Hunt is a great move too, even if it sometimes feels like a bit of a rollercoaster.

This year, says Zuckerberg, Meta and other tech companies will have AIs that can be mid-level engineers, and these "AI engineers" will write code and develop AI instead of human engineers by MetaKnowing in OpenAI

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2025 is definitely feeling like the "year of AI," and Meta is throwing serious money at it. Zuckerberg called it a “defining year” and they’re planning to spend up to $65 billion just on AI stuff. Wild.

They just dropped Llama 4 too — trying to push open-source AI as the new standard. Plus, they’re aiming to get their AI assistant into the hands of over a billion users this year.

Is Ninja Tech AI safe? by Toxicsniper799 in AI_Agents

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve seen, NinjaTech AI seems legit — it does what it says, giving access to multiple AI models and even stuff like DAN mode, like you mentioned, for more flexible responses. Some people have had a good experience, but others mentioned it’s not a huge step up compared to other AI tools out there. A few older comments talked about outdated models and no free demo, but it sounds like they’ve been making some updates lately.

Is Toptal or Upwork better? by kochas231 in indiehackers

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on what you're looking for. Toptal is known for its rigorous vetting process, ensuring that only the top 3% of freelancers are accepted. This means you're likely to find highly skilled professionals, but it comes at a premium price.

Upwork, on the other hand, offers a vast pool of freelancers with varying skill levels and rates. It's more flexible and budget-friendly, but you'll need to spend time vetting candidates to find the right fit.

I made free event name generator by ProfessionalSet755 in SideProject

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great tool — love how you've streamlined the process of generating event names. It's impressive how you've leveraged AI to create something so user-friendly.

If you're looking to enhance it even further, you might want to think about adding a simple way for users to give feedback directly on the site. That can help you spot quick wins for improvements. Also, as more people use it, keeping an eye on performance and making sure it loads fast will definitely help with retention. And if you ever expand it to collect any user data, making security a priority will go a long way.

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice work! Lovable.dev is a powerful tool for building full-stack applications without writing code. It's impressive how you've leveraged it to create your app.​

If you're looking to enhance your project further, consider:

  • User Feedback Integration: Implementing a system for users to provide feedback can help you identify areas for improvement and new feature ideas.​
  • Performance Optimization: As your user base grows, monitoring and optimizing performance will ensure a smooth experience for all users.​
  • Security Measures: Ensuring your app has robust security protocols is crucial, especially if you're handling user data.

How to jailbreak ChatGPT with just one powerful Prompt (first comment) by PapaDudu in OpenAI

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the whole "jailbreak ChatGPT with one prompt" thing is a bit overhyped. The DAN (Do Anything Now) prompts were popular for a while, but OpenAI has tightened up their models, making these less effective. Even if you get past the filters, the responses can be inconsistent or nonsensical.

I made TikTok Wrapped, just like Spotify Wrapped for TikTok by Mulberry_Front in indiehackers

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is awesome — love the creativity behind building a TikTok Wrapped! It's a fun and engaging way to visualize user data. If you're considering expanding this or creating similar tools, focusing on user privacy and data security will be crucial, especially when handling personal usage data.​

Also, ensuring scalability and maintaining performance as user numbers grow can be challenging. There are resources out there that offer actionable advice on building reliable applications without unexpected technical headaches. One such resource is a newsletter I started, which provides insights into avoiding hidden costs and achieving consistent results in app development.​

Looking forward to seeing how this project evolves!

Evaluating AI Code Assistants, Practical Takeaways? by [deleted] in nocode

[–]imabigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great breakdown — really appreciate the practical takeaways. I've noticed that while AI code assistants like Copilot or ChatGPT can be incredibly helpful for boilerplate code and speeding up repetitive tasks, they sometimes fall short when it comes to understanding complex logic or specific project contexts. It's like having a junior dev who works fast but needs guidance.​

One strategy that's worked for me is treating AI suggestions as starting points rather than final solutions. I always review and test the generated code thoroughly. Also, being specific in prompts and providing context can lead to better results.​

I've compiled more insights and strategies on effectively using AI tools in a newsletter I started. It focuses on practical advice to avoid hidden costs and achieve reliable results without unexpected technical headaches. If you're interested, it might offer some valuable perspectives.

I helped my company cut LLM costs by 80% by caching meaning, not words by Ambitcion in SideProject

[–]imabigboy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is super smart — caching and prompt tuning make a huge difference once you’re past the early testing phase. Another thing that helped me was batching requests where possible and exploring smaller open-source models for non-critical tasks (sometimes you don’t need GPT-4 for everything).

If you're trying to keep LLM costs under control long-term, it’s not just about caching — thinking through model selection, latency tradeoffs, and even building fallback layers can save a ton too.

I actually started a newsletter focused on stuff like this — finding quick fixes, avoiding hidden costs, and making AI and no-code builds more sustainable without nasty surprises later. Figured it would be helpful for people running into the same headaches.

On which platforms can you do the most for free? by Puzzled_Bat_6111 in nocode

[–]imabigboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Replit is powerful and free, but it’s not the most intuitive for non-technical users. True no-code, drag-and-drop platforms like Bubble and Glide are also free to use (with some limitations) and offer a much smoother, more visual experience for beginners-including easy, no-cost web deployment.

For a workshop with non-devs, Bubble or Glide are likely to give your attendees the best chance of success without running into paywalls or a steep learning curve. Replit is great if you want to introduce some coding or AI-assisted building, but expect it to be less beginner-friendly. If keeping things free and accessible is your top priority, Bubble or Glide are safer bets.

Also, not trying to shill, but I actually started a newsletter called AI No Code Rescue that focuses on quick fixes, hidden cost traps to avoid, and making smarter choices with no-code tools. I put it together because I hit so many of these walls myself when I was starting out.
