Haven't noticed any meaningful change in the number of new job openings.

I've seen multiple new job openings that appear to be opportunities for American workers
Poll: Has the slowdown in H-1B created more job opportunities for Americans?
With the Trump administration's policies and tighter restrictions around H-1B visas, H-1B hiring appears to have slowed considerably.I'm curious whether this has translated into more opportunities for American workers, particularly in the tech industry.Have you noticed any tangible change in the job market?

Not exactly what you asked for, but are you aware of CLAP?

This generates audio embeddings - much like CLIP does for visual inputs.

Hoover Senior Fellow Paola Sapienza and Institute for Progress’ Distinguished Immigration Counsel Amy Nice examine recently obtained data and explain why the common claim—that immigrants are hired as a source of cheap labor—doesn't hold up under scrutiny. In fact, the opposite may be true…

We use a vector db (Qdrant) to store embeddings of images and text and built a search UI atop it.
Re:Ask HN: What are you working on? (September 2025)

I’m working on a new vision-language model architecture called Onida. Our aim is to match—or surpass—the performance of leading VLMs like LLavA and CogVLM, while operating at a fraction of the cost. Unlike most existing VLMs, which layer vision components onto a language model as an afterthought, Onida is designed from first principles with a truly integrated approach.
This document [1] outlines our key differentiators, and we’re now inviting beta participants to explore and test the technology.

I largely share Yann LeCun’s perspective that scaling LLM-based approaches will eventually hit a plateau, and that a paradigm shift will be necessary. While there is ongoing debate about what that next paradigm should be, I outline my own views on the subject in this paper [1].

IMO AI is going eat most jobs - including the experienced ones - it's just a matter of time. There is no sugar coating this unfortunately.

I think it's an example of a post hoc fallacy. The popularity of video was in large part responsible for the investment into broadband in the first place.
Re:Muvera: Making multi-vector retrieval as fast as single-vector search
on Thursday June 26, 2025 @01:46PM (#44389608)
how is this different from generating a feature hash of the embeddings i.e reduce from many to one embedding reduction? Could a UMAP or such technique be helpful in reducing to a single vector?

This is where the memory bit comes in, if you have a memory of past embeddings and associated label(s), it could be an ANN query to fetch the most similar embeddings and infer therefrom.
Re:How we made our optical character recognition (OCR) code more accurate
on Thursday May 22, 2025 @11:59AM (#44063345)
has anyone tried feeding the admittedly noisy OCR-ed text -at a document level - to an LLM for making sense? Presumably some of the less capable ones should be quite affordable and accurate at scale as well.
