There is a typo in the title of your example https://copilot-demo.inkeep.com/?ticketId=new-ticket

"Escelating to humans from Inkeep AI Slack bot" : "Escelating" --> "escalating"

Have you considered making a standalone tool to take input variables and generate custom instructions?

Your introduction suggests that you know people's input variables (type of flour, environment, other ingredients, etc) have a heavy influence on the end product. It might be easier to generate custom instructions rather than generate content for every possible combination.

I kickstarted my career 8 years ago by going through an old version of this course online. Huge props to Stanford for making it more easily consumable by others.

Given that AWS continues to spin out more and more purpose-built technology as needs come up, I wonder whether AWS's long-term strategy is to:

- Continue to spin out products to support common business use cases.

- Expose commonly used functionality from products via this WYSIWYG tool.

- Allow drag and drop programming by connecting services.

- Lambdas are the primary way that a business bridges gaps between OOB functionality and business requirements, but are still connected up via this WYSWYG tool once created.

It would be a while before it was useful to FAANG, but maybe mom and pop businesses could cheaply partner with AWS experts to ship custom software?

You might also take a look at how popular influencers use Instagram Stories to collect throughout-the-day updates into cohesive stories across days and weeks.

IE: "My trip to Cabo" might include 1-2 stories out of 10 posted that day, but they are the user's favorite and tell a cohesive story.

Another analogy is Youtube's "Playlist" feature.

Looks like they also made a podcast.

"#828 - What is GPT-3?"

This is a good time for a reminder about the startup journey. Quibi is in the "Trough of Sorrow" which is NORMAL.

Ask HN: Is it legal to ask for personal information without reason?

While surfing the web of Youtube content creators I ended up on a website that prompts the user for their date of birth in order to continue. No reason, no information about what it will be used for - just preventing the user from continuing without typing in this personal information."What year were you born?" [Blank area to type in year] "Enter" Privacy PolicyIt seems super spammy but is it...
