Hi sorry about this. It should be fixed.

It's just meant for fun

Thanks! It took a lot of effort ngl but glad ppl appreciate it.

I'm currently training the next model I think this next one looks much harder to tell.

It's a custom model I trained.

It was already working. The extension had been functioning for months already.

My entire point is that if you're a huge organisation like google. And if you offer a critical feature that users then integrate deeply into their product.

This least you could do with your enormous wealth is send a note out giving a heads up about this damaging change.

What's so hard to understand here?

I'm sorry that just isnt enough. I'm talking about critical payments stuff within the app.

You're telling me this was the best route for 10k+ apps that are dependent on this for processing payments.

Literally zero warning.

This was listed on the firebase platform. It's a critical feature. You can't make changes like this, especially downgrading this way, without giving a huge warning.

The invertase library doesn't work.

Yeah I would share screenshots if I could. Once you add it gives a warning "extension needs to be updated", and that's where it says the deprecation stuff.

Thanks!

It's because we thought it would get us more comments like yours which ultimately boosted our hackernews ranking and got us a lot more traffic.

Noted. Will definitely work on that. Honestly I used ChatGPT to help generate the list of avatars that I thought people would find interesting/controversial.

Thanks much appreciated! It was a mixture of some the latest TTS models. Azure speech to text. Gpt ofc. And some other tools for handling conversational stuff (like interruptions).

Absolutely not. Huge hater tbh. Just picked personalities that were of public interest.

Yeah I made it kinda terse on purpose haha. Wanted to give it a bit of a personality.

OpenAI API is pretty easy to use. Where is the value add? Is this for developers? If so it's really not that difficult to use OpenAI and its increasingly getting easier as the models get better. I feel like you may be overstating the problem here.

I can see the nocode angle though.
