Show HN: A modern C++20 AI SDK (GPT‑4o, Claude 3.5, tool‑calling)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-16 10:52:42

Hi all, I’m hacking on new features for the ClickHouse native client and wanted the same “just call the model” ergonomics JavaScript and Python now enjoy. It didn’t exist for modern C++, so I wrote one. ai‑sdk‑cpp (Apache‑2.0) gives you: - Unified calls to OpenAI (GPT‑4o) and Anthropic (Claude 3.5) with a single C++20 API. - Streaming, multi‑turn chat, error handling—all std::optional/std::variant, no macros. - Tool calling (function‑calling) so the model can hit real APIs; sync or async, run

Figma moves closer to a blockbuster IPO that could raise $1.5B

Figma publicly shared its financials Tuesday, inching the design software company closer to an IPO.

IPO experts Renaissance Capital estimate that Figma could raise up to $1.5 billion in this offering.

When multi-hyphenate billionaire Elon Musk returned to Tesla in May, it was met with a surge of enthusiasm from investors who feared he'd given up on the embattled carmaker during his disastrous stint in government. But that optimism has dimmed significantly as Musk has brought his signature aura of chaos and disappointment back to Tesla — and it's clear in the company's stock price, which has actually fallen since his homecoming in late May.
