I built Bustameme this weekend to generate memes using AI. You upload any image, and it uses a combination of vision models and LLMs to generate a caption.

Memes are one of the hardest forms of communication for AI—humor, context, subtlety. So this was partly an experiment: how funny can AI get?

Curious what people think. What would you improve?

Do you have any caching on the pre-existing memes? Modern web servers have nearly eliminated the Hug of Death but AI has brought it back and made it more expensive to the host than ever. We don't all need bespoke memes for the images you prepared, cached versions of a few runs would be fine.

That's a great idea. I should compute some of them offline and serve them immediately versus waiting 12s.
