> ...used some kind of semantic search to show the user a search result from the local database immediately, and then followed that up with a very small LLM writing a text answer. This gives actually-good answers in a very reasonable timeframe
I have tried this very same thing on https://grimoire.bio. Large corpus of biological knowledge with detailed visualizations that are shown immediately upon searching, but adding LLM answer when missing/needed.
I wonder how a 'world model' for a user interface could look like. Some loose constraints, understanding of what is possible and what not, but then each slice generated on the spot as the user traverses it. The model understanding the user's intent based on context so that e.g. when they right-click over an image, sensible options show up rather than a traditionally defined menu.
I don't think it would be a good user experience. I just crave the feeling of navigating such 'world'.

It’s still fairly limited in terms of how many biological objects are visualized, but I plan to add to the corpus daily.
The speed of the search and answer is mainly driven by Jev.
And just to highlight some of the more ‘complete’ pieces, here is a guide to protein engineering: https://grimoire.bio/protein-engineering

This started as a fun experiment, but I now use Jev on my mac as an advanced auto-correct. Much better than any other option I tried. https://levmiseri.com/nospace (the no space being more of a gimmick, but the autocorrection is good)
Show HN: Control swarm with dynamic code insertions
More of an experiment right now, though hoping to make a proper game out of it.There is a feauture where you tell the swarm whatever command or behaviour you want it to do and an LLM will code up a solution, dynamically inserting it into the game.

Show HN: Grow and Control a Swarm
I was playing with flocking algorithms and decided to make a game of it. Still more of a demo than a real game, but I'm curious what people think.
Show HN: Game where you control a swarm
Why I thought this might be interesting for HN – there is a dynamic-code-insertion feature. When you reach 2000 units, you will get an input field where you can describe whatever behavior or command for your swarm and an LLM will create a code that will perform it. Can be something as simple as ‘make a heart’ or more complex, like ‘turn blue when enemies are nearby’. Or describing some kiting...

A small idea that has been surprisingly useful for me already. I tried to write without spaces for a day - hooking all my writings to this system - and it made me measurably faster by the end of it. It takes getting used to... and unused to. I'm still not sure if this has some merit, or if it's just a fun experiment.

Thanks! Made some updates to it to strengthen the corrections/splits. Should work substantially better now.

I had an idea for a 'write without space, basicallylikethis' and Jev (given how cheap it is) just being asked after every key press where inserting spaces (or making typo correction) would make sense.
The demo is here: https://levmiseri.com/nospace

> f developers spend only about 15 percent of their time typing in the editor
I think this is missing an important detail. Lots of time was spent on non-coding stuff, because coding used to be more committal and hence expensive. With how quickly one can code up a quick prototype or even production-ready code these days, the code becomes the communication tool as well.
