Show HN: Stargazers Reloaded – LLM-Powered Analyses of Your GitHub Community
Sep 30, 2023 · news.ycombinator.comTo reduce the high cost of using GPT-4 for generating data, the developers set up an LLM model cascade in a SQL query, running GPT-3.5 before GPT-4. This reduced the cost to $5.5 for analyzing 1000 GitHub stargazers from the original $60. After a month of development, the app has been open-sourced.
Key takeaways
- An app has been developed to provide insights about GitHub communities using large language models (LLMs).
- The app analyzes the GitHub profiles of users who have starred the repository, capturing details like their interests, by using OCR models and LLMs.
- The app was inspired by the original Stargazers app but uses EvaDB and LLMs to extract insights from unstructured data from stargazers' webpages.
- To reduce the cost of using GPT-4, an LLM model cascade was set up in a SQL query, running GPT-3.5 before GPT-4, lowering the cost to $5.5 for analyzing 1000 GitHub stargazers.
