For years, we've operated under the belief that 'humans know best' - that our own judgment and abilities are the ultimate guide.

Super-knowledgeable AI systems will profoundly change that.

Ofc! Surprisingly yes, we do have healthy margins on top of the base cost.

Ah thanks! Fixing now.

Yes SD on the back-end, currently 1.5 but will also add support for 2.1 soon.

We're trying different configurations on the hardware side, currently running on A100s via AWS, but will upgrade this soon to get faster inference/training.

Thanks Juliana!

Ask HN: What do you think about decentralized websites/apps?

With Blockchain & IPFS tech maturing, it's becoming possible to create of fully decentralized websites.What use-cases do you think would be uniquely suited to benefit from this? Are there any? Would you build one?Or is existing Web2 infrastructure decentralized enough that there's little benefit to full decentralization?E.g. Censorship-proof, ownership.

We built a platform enabling creators to launch NFT storefronts without writing any code. E.g. Shopify for NFTs. Waitlist open now in case anyone wants early access, granted on a rolling basis.
Hi all!

Sharing a new product that we launched today on Product Hunt (https://www.producthunt.com/posts/ember-2fead3ac-fb3b-4d70-9...)

We created Ember to help make the experience of launching or participating in web3 communities easier.

As a creator, it is difficult and daunting to set up a web3 project. Website builders like Wix or Squarespace do not support web3 functionality. And messaging platforms like Telegram or Discord require 3rd party bots and plugins to support even the most basic web3 interactions like token gates or wallet verification.

Even when someone succeeds at setting this up, this still results in a subpar experience.

We believe the future of web3 is social, integrated, and frictionless. So, we decided to build just that.

Ember is an ambitious project aimed at becoming the social layer for web3 communities, starting with easy to set up landing pages and messaging communities.

Today, you can use Ember to set up a landing page with built-in wallet connection, and whitelists (minting coming soon). Today, you can also set up a messaging community with built-in ERC 721 token-gates, and you can browse other member's NFTs, and even set your own as a profile picture.

Thank you for taking the time to check us out! (feedback is always appreciated)

No email yet, we had a video call on Sunday! The suspense...
The suspense begins..
Re:YC Video call before final interview on Monday April 16, 2018 @11:27AM (#16849605)
We got our call too! Main question was what are you building? and many people have failed with this idea in the past, what makes you different?
Absolutely, It's a unique opportunity in the space, it feels like everyone is racing to market - next 6 months will be interesting to watch.
