Things I think should be built #

I have several technical projects that are a work in progress. I am only focusing on one of them, because I’m only one man. However, I think it would be neat for these ideas to be developed, even if I’m not the one to do it. The following are a list of ideas I’ve had that I would love to see implemented. If you build any of these, I’m willing to work with you and provide any assistance I can.

For each concept, I’ve included the stack I would use, but it’s really at the discretion of whoever actually builds the thing.

  • Event Syndication Site for Colleges. I have already done most of the work for this project.
  • Essay generator with quotes and citations. [Prefab LLM, Python, BS4/requests]
  • LLM for tagging paragraphs of text. [PyTorch / JAX / Tinygrad, Python]
  • Web client based pptx summarizer. This already exists, but the models are run serverside. Offloading compute onto users reduces server costs drastically.
    [Flask, React, ONNX.js / transformers.js, WebGPU, WASM]
  • Open Source Prediction Market. Effectively a minimal, self-hosted version of Manifold. I think it’d be neat to create markets within smaller organizations, like a club or group of friends.
