Re:Ask HN: What are you working on? (September 2025) on Monday September 29, 2025 @07:03PM (#45419937)
I'm currently building Visirya, an app that helps people record their night dreams and transforms them into short videos and written journals. The bigger goal is to use this dream data to create dream cartographies, essentially maps of recurring themes, emotions, and symbols—to uncover patterns and insights across dreams over time.

So far, we've built the video generation and dream journaling features. The app is live on TestFlight, and we're preparing a major update soon that includes a new better UI, and dream questionnaire to help with pattern recognition and dream mapping.

Would love to hear thoughts, feedback, or connect with others working on similar intersections of tech and the mind! If you're interested in trying it out, you can find the TestFlight link on our website: https://visirya.com

Re:OpenAI Completes Deal That Values Company at $157B on Wednesday October 02, 2024 @06:15PM (#41725455)
OpenAI finances is a bit tricky since most of their expenses are the cloud costs while their biggest investor/shareholder Microsoft invested in them with mostly Azure credit so although their finances seem unsustainable, I think the investors are banking in if the things went bad Microsoft will buy them out and make even small ROI like what they did with Inflection.
