Cool. I used to make my resume in LaTeX but that got tedious. I like the idea that this might make it easy to customize resumes. And try out different formats easily.
Maybe play around with having OpenAI convert existing resumes into the yaml format to make it easier to try out.
Actually I am planning to integrate AI to generate this kind of YAML first and then convert it to PDF.
The idea:
1. apply strict schema validation to YAML so AI won't generate wrong/invalid data
2. write prompt to AI help people generate a sample YAMLResume
3. adopt AI to parse existing PDF or images and convert it to YAMLResume format
I love integrating into spreadsheets. Super easy to use. Reminds me a bit of mailmerge.
I don't have much experience with modern finetuning, but isn't it highly technical. How many layers do you want to change? What is the learning rate? Does that need to be visible to the user? How many examples are needed in practice
Finetuning is technical, but OpenAI hides things like layers, learning rates, and uses LoRA under the hood. You just upload examples - usually around 50.
But even that’s too much for most business users. Choosing input/output fields, generating and validating JSONL still feels like coding. That’s why we built PromptRepo: it turns finetuning into a guided, no-code workflow using spreadsheets.
No it used to rely heavily on Aider and it kind of became obsolete. The agent reads/writes files directly now instead of having aider do it. Its a bit faster and lower token costs.
The great thing about RA.Aid is that it automatically iterates until the plan is fully complete. It also finds the files itself - aider doesn't really do that. I still do use aider for concise editing but RA.Aid is excellent for larger changes that require many iterations.
Copilot sucks in general in my experience - but decent at finding relevance that's about it. I haven't tried this agent mode - will look into it. There are many AI agents so far seems for AI software development I'm looking towards: https://www.swebench.com/ for benchmarking - RA.AID has yet to benchmark as its quite expensive. But that is a good point I can highlight that difference thank you.
I want something which looks like design for engineers. I'm a programmer, code completion is nice, but I already know how to code. What I am terrible at is design.
I think sometimes people think design is purely making things "look good", but I come to realize it's also making things "work good!" a.k.a making it intuitive. "Don't make people think!"
It's been pretty cool to see how a tool like Magic Patterns is helpful for software builders to think through the flow for whatever feature their building. This is largely how I use it internally. For example, when I added our deploy feature, I first used Magic Patterns to think through what steps I needed to add: https://www.magicpatterns.com/c/d9sb9eavgnpjv1d5vaw6wa
This is long way of saying that one way I have become a better designer is by using AI as a creative assistant, but then also recognizing when to not reinvent the wheel. You also want to leverage existing patterns as much as possible.
