Ask HN: Help recall AI-powered personal assitant showcased recently on HN

38 points by ewuhic ↗ HN
There was some thread on HN not that long ago, with a showcase of an AI personal assitant. The case study was, if I recall correct, filling in web forms and searching for apartment rentals fitting specific criteria, which is initiated by a simple text prompt without any additional tweaking.

It was not an assitant in a sense of Alexa or Mycroft, but some kind of an automation. I may be mistaken here, but it may have also come in a form of a browser extension. The showcase demo was most likely either a video or a gif.

Could anyone kindly remind me what exactly the product was and provide a link to the HN discussion?

I believe you're looking for the Adept Act-1.

Seeing that you already got your answer, my two cents: You can use hn.algolia.com to instantly (fuzzy?) find terms in submissions and comments.

Algolia’s HN search in my experience regularly fails to find obvious matches which are quickly found using Google with same terms.

Yup, I agree. Algolia is the worst kind of search experience I had anywhere. I have no idea why people integrate that shit. A lot of sites use Algolia for their documentation search and you can't find terms there you know they exist.
