Show HN: How much of Hacker News is about AI?
This website counts titles containing the standalone word "AI", case-sensitive and
word-bounded. "OpenAI" doesn't count. "AI-powered" does. There's a toggle for a
wider vocabulary: artificial intelligence spelled out, LLM, GPT, and model and
vendor names.Some quick stats:- 14.4% of new HN titles this year, against 10.9% in 2025. On the wider
vocabulary, 21.9% and 16.1%.

Ask HN: Why are Claude models so verbose?
Hello! First time poster, longtime reader. I’m a professional software engineer at a startup with about 50 engineers. My primary languages are Ruby (Rails), TypeScript (React), and Go.Of my colleagues, I’m one of the ones who tries to keep up with new AI models on every release. When there’s a new frontier or open-weight model, I’ll give it an honest try for a few days as my main driver and report back to my colleagues.I’m a Cursor user at work and in my side projects. My go-to models are GPT-5.
Claude reaching limits quickly then ever
claude usage says they ahve increased my claude max 20x subscription tokens by 50% until aug 31st but the tokens are getting used quickly than ever before. I dont know what's happening. Is anyone facing the same issue?
I estimate reading code costs 2.1x more than writing it
I hate reading agent-generated code and it's not a good use of my time, and I wanted a staistic to quantify by how much.My current estimate is $0.243 for a human to review one changed line and $0.114 in model spend for an agent to produce one benchmark-accepted changed line. That makes human review about 2.1 times as expensive under these assumptions.The agent calculation uses one public GPT-5.5 OpenHands run from May 2026. Its token categories, final patches, per-task costs, and evaluation
Show HN: AI scientist builds an open-source Codex Micro from scratch for $40
A few weeks ago, we open-sourced our design for a cost-effective but full featured alternative to OpenAI x Work Louder's sold out Codex Micro macropad. And now, we're pleased to share that we've actually built them and they work!Quick recap of the I/O:

- rotary encoder
- joystick
- touch disc
- optional edge-lit LED bandThe cool part for us was just HOW our agent was able to do it when every other agentic skills, tools, and even comme
Show HN: Rook – A multi-Agent harness that lives 100% in a browser extension
This is something I have been working on, on and off, for about a year but now I feel that it is stable enough to release. It really only has two tool sets, an execute tool for arbitrary code, and a bash tool, both of which run 100% in browser.As of now it's free and you can use your ChatGPT subscription or an OpenAI endpoint. There is an optional companion PWA that allows you to drive the extension from your phone and click captchas for it remotely, which I might charge for in the future.
Show HN: Small OSS experiment to re-create the 2.5B valued Instinct assistant

Show HN: Use GLM-5.3 in Cursor today via tokengo API
Hi HN,Hearing a lot of buzz around GLM-5.3, which I expect to be the best open-source coding model with the weights dropping soon, I wanted to test it where I actually do my work.I just mapped GLM-5.3 to TokenGo so I could swap out the base URL and use it directly in my IDE.The backend handles the edge routing via Cloudflare to keep latency low, critical when you're waiting for inline code completions.If you want to try GLM-5.3 (or glm-5.3-flash) in your own workflow, here is the setup.For
