“While we strive to maintain consistent pricing between preview and stable releases to minimize disruption, this is a specific adjustment reflecting Flash’s exceptional value, still offering the best cost-per-intelligence available.”

Anthropic did the same thing with their Haiku model when they released version 3.5. I hate it.

Can you try again?

There was another comment that mentioned that there's an issue with port killing code on Windows: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43614145

I just published a new version of the @browsermcp/mcp library (version 0.1.1) that handles the error better until I can investigate further so it should hopefully work now if you're using @browsermcp/mcp@latest.

FWIW, Claude Desktop currently has a bug where it tries to start the server twice, which is why the MCP server tries to kill the process from a previous invocation: https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/issues/812

It's working now with the 0.1.0 for me. But I will let you know if I experience any issues once I get updated to 0.1.1.

Thanks, great job! I like it overall, but I noticed it has some issues entering text in forms, even on google.com. It's able to find a workaround and insert the searched text in the URL, but it would be nice if the entry into forms worked well for UI testing.

How does this compare to Anthropic's Computer Use?

Doesn't work on Windows:

I was able to make it work like this:

1. Kill your Claude Desktop app

2. Click "Connect" in the browser extension.

3. Quickly start your Calude Desktop app.

It will work 50% of the time - I guess the timing must be just right for it to work. Hopefully, the developers can improve this.

Now on to testing :)

Yeah, it's down. Musk should stop working remotely and get back to the office to fix it ASAP!

What works nice also is the text to speech. I find it easier and faster to give more context by talking rather than typing, and the extra content helps the AI to do its job.

And even though the speech recognition fails a lot on some of the technical terms or weirdly named packages, software, etc, it still does a good job overall (if I don’t feel like correcting the wrong stuff).

It’s great and has become somewhat of a party trick at work. Some people don’t even use AI to code that often, and when I show them “hey have you tried this?” And just tell the computer what I want? Most folks are blown away.

Does the Cursor have text-to-speech functionality?

is this custom built or are you using a third party system that integrates with Zendesk, Intercom etc?

cadence- · 10 months ago

It's a custom-built Slack bot that uses our KB articles, and previous customer tickets, to formulate responses and find links to relevant data. Our Customer Service staff uses those generated responses to write actual replies to customers. We currently don't have plans to let the system respond to customer queries directly.

who is actually making sustainable revenue solving a real problem using AI? I can only think of the foundational models(OpenAI, Gemini etc), coding helpers(Cursor, GH Copilot)

cadence- · 10 months ago

It might not always be possible to directly translate it to revenue, but in my company, we started using an RAG system to help the Customer Support team answer inquiries. It replaced the old Knowledge Base articles search system, and it improved the number of processed inquiries by about 30%. This decreased customer support times and probably helped make customers happier, which is a pretty nice win, even if it would be pretty much impossible to attribute any revenue numbers directly to it.
