Show HN: An AI agent that learns your product and guides your users

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-27 09:24:50

Hey HN! My name is Christian, and I’m the co-founder of https://frigade.ai . We’ve built a powerful AI agent that automatically learns how to use any web-based product, and in turn guides users directly in the UI, automatically generates documentation, and even takes actions on a user’s behalf. Think of it as Clippy from the old MS Office. But on steroids. And actually helpful. You can see the agent and tool-calling SDK in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPe0t3A1Vpg How is this di

YouTube's Age-Estimation Tech Will Spot Kids Pretending to Be Adults. Here's How It Works

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-12-27 10:43:00

If kids are lying about their age, YouTube will know about it. Or at least will try its best to find out. The streaming service announced Tuesday it's rolling out age-estimation technology that will use various data to determine if someone is under the age of 18, and then use that signal "to deliver our age-appropriate product experiences and protections." Basically -- assuming it works as it should -- kids will not be able to access what YouTube deems as age-restricted content. Google, YouTub

Superhot geothermal energy could unearth big power boost for the AI era

cnbc.com Diana Olick 2025-12-27 18:14:53

Geothermal energy has been used for thousands of years, powering heating systems as early as the 14th century. It's getting a big upgrade. Beyond geothermal, there's superhot geothermal, which uses ultra-deep drilling to access extremely hot rocks, extracting 5 to 10 times more power per well. Quaise Energy, a Massachusetts-based startup, is in the market developing the technology, which involves an electromagnetic beam that vaporizes rock.

Judge Accuses Elon Musk and Sam Altman of ‘Gamesmanship’ in Court

Elon Musk scored a small win in court on Tuesday in his case against Sam Altman, but the judge wasn’t impressed with either side’s tactics, reprimanding them for “gamesmanship.” Calling out both sides for having “repeatedly over-litigated the case,” U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers granted Musk’s motion to strike several of Altman’s defenses.

Phone numbers leak more info than you might expect. They tell, based on country and area code, where the caller’s located—or at least where their phone number was registered. The caller’s name is likely to pop up on caller ID, and their carrier may be discoverable with a quick lookup. One could infer that the caller is awake and available at the time of the call. And if the callee answers, one can also infer that they are available—that they heard the call, saw the info, and decided to still tak
