Ask HN: How would you build a dev/design agency in 2025 alongside AI? (ycombinator.com)
I’m a developer and have worked remotely for 3-4 years with various product based companies like rabbithole.gg, paragraph.xyz, pimlico.io etc and for the past few months I’ve been working on a side-project of my own, it’s an open-source form builder platform like Typeform. Through my journey, I've discovered I really enjoy the craft of building products & open source softwares. It got me thinking about starting a small dev/design agency, but with a different approach.

Biases in Apple's Image Playground (giete.ma)
Although Image Playground is heavily restricted, and we do not have direct access to the underlying model, can we still use the prompting interface with the above image input to influence the skin tone of the resulting image? Turns out we can, and in precisely the biased way most image models behave 🤦‍♂️.
