Show HN: Hacker News AI built using function calling

Hi HN, I built an AI that can interact with the Hacker News API and answer questions about hackernews stories, whats trending, what on show etc..

Check it out here: https://hn.aidev.run

You can ask questions like:

- What's on hackernews about AI?

- What's on hackernews about iPhone?

- What's trending on hackernews?

- What are users showing on hackernews?

- What are users asking on hackernews?

- Summarize this story: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39156778

- Tell me about the user pg

It uses function calling to query the HN api.

To answer questions about a particular topic, it’ll search its knowledge base (a vector db that is periodically updated with the “top stories”) and get details about those stories from the API.

This is pretty barebones and I built it today in < 2 hours, so it probably won’t meet your high standards. If you give it a try, I’d love your feedback on how I can improve it.

If you’re interested, I built this using phidata: https://github.com/phidatahq/phidata
