Don't build another effin' chatbot - Web Dev Challenge S1E1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ก.ค. 2024
- Sponsored by DataStax (lwj.dev/astra-db) - What could you create if you had 30 minutes to plan and 4 hours to build? Lizzie Siegle, Chance Strickland, Jack Herrington, and Jason Lengstorf took on the Web Dev Challenge to find out. #webdevelopment #challenge #ai #javascript #python #reactjs
THE CHALLENGE
Build an AI-powered app that's not another f%*#ing chatbot. So much of what we see in the AI space are variations on the chatbot interface. Carter at DataStax challenged the devs to build something different.
THE TOOL
All apps must use Astra DB as part of the final build. Astra DB provides a vector store and tools for generating vector embeddings from any data you choose. Give it a try yourself: lwj.dev/astra-db
THE DEVS
Lizzie Siegle (www.lizziesiegle.xyz)
Chance Strickland (chance.dev/)
Jack Herrington (@jherr)
Jason Lengstorf (@learnwithjason)
THE ADVISOR
Carter Rebasa (github.com/crtr0)

"I don't even know what the words are I'm supposed to be googling". LOL I would have been in the same boat. Great episode!
I was SWEATING. thank you!
😂😂😂
@@learnwithjason You did it and you learned something. Double win.
Why not using ChatGPT here?
Did you guys use ChatGPT to help you out? Great stuff btw!)
Carter explained vector databases in such an easy-to-understand way. This video felt like a developer's reality show! Such good production, and so engaging. I would be sweating and questioning my decision to be there every single minute. Can't wait!
💜💜
In 4 hours I'd still be googling.
loool if I didn't have Carter there I would have been, too 😆
The quality of this video is awesome.
thanks so much!
This is amazing. In awe of the production quality, transitions, storytelling. Thanks for putting this out!
thank you so much!
This was sooooo gooooood! Loved the whole aesthetic of the video and the projects were amazing!
appreciate you!
Jack talks the talk and walks the walk! Incredible video!
Just a wonderfully crafted video! I don't know how exactly I just stumbled upon this with this mornings coffee. But I'm so glad I did! Getting a kind of Portlandia turned into Devlandia vibe. Looking forward to more!
thanks so much!
Really nice energy in the room, had fun watching the video!
I'm so happy for this. Its like a Netflix series for developers except you actually watch it and be inspired to acquire the expertise of the characters who are not characters but actually real and skilled developers. Keep it coming!
thank you so much!
I knew that Jack was going to absolutely smash it
should have known he’d run laps around me 😆
Only good vibes can be found here 🙌🏼
Great video, had a great laugh! Well thought through production aswell.
Loved to see some real-life work from expert devs!
After hearing Carter talk at his conference from the organizing role for years, I feel like we've been missing out on hearing him speak from a technical perspective.
I love this whole format, keep it going!
thank you!
Mannnnn, this is so much fun!!! Laughed a lot watching this, and got really pumped to build cool things. Thanks for the video 😍
thanks so much! next episode coming soon 👀
This was so much fun and such a great watch.We definitely need so more :) Keep up the work guys :)
thank you! more on the way - stay tuned!
Omg this was hilarious and SO WELL DONE. This gave me "The Office" vibes. I love it so much
thank youuuu!
You guys are effin AWESOME.
Really like these kind of videos. Even online version is like great but in person is always special. More open discussion and all. It takes alot more effort but as a viewer it was really enjoyable.
Thanks to all of you. Great watch
Delightful content! I'll stay for more
Great episode guys. Totally enjoyed this.
we need more of these types of episodes. Maybe even a movie down the road? haha i love this!
brilliant! loved every minute
thank you so much Angie!
this is so COOL i love this series already!
thank you!
OMG! I saw Jack Herrington and sticked longer while watching this video. Amazing episode by the way. Please keep doing more of this!
thank you so much!
Amazing stuff dude! This looks like so much fun.
thank you!
This was sooooooo funny and I love to see great developers doing stuff like this, I can't wait for Episode 2!
thanks so much! it's coming out in roughly two weeks 👀
Love any video with Jack always a great source of knowledge
Can't wait for future episodes.
coming soon! 👀

I've loved this series from day one. This episode was better than I could have imagined. Editing, story, challenge, flow. 🥹
Beautiful.

Such a great video!
thank you!
OMG I'm soooo thrilled about this! I need it to be on every streaming platform and have like a million episodes!
thank you so much!
Great episode. Would love to see you do a full video building an app like this in realtime.
you mean like a long-form tutorial/build-along of one of the apps?
Amazing, hope it continues for long long time....
me too! more coming soon
This is SO MUCH FUN!
thank you!
the fanfic generator was the first thing it came to my head when ai started to peak lol, i love Lizzie's project but all of them were amazing! really enjoyed this format
fanfic really is the funniest application of ai 😆
@jherr is the right definition of what seniority means. Amazing!
truly a wonderful coder and teacher
Hey Jason, this must be what you meant when you said to Rachel, that you are just being a dork by yourself and we are happy seeing and being validated as dorks having fun as well. Thank you so much. This is such a fantastic emotional intro to AI and LLMs. I am sure many web devs will lower their anxiety levels and dive in. Thank you DataStax!
this is EXACTLY what I meant lol. thank you! 💜
Jason managed to built the most useful app somehow :D
Vector search is fun, especially you can use multi modal models to vectorize images as well. I also did a day of playing with this last week to do a purely vector base version of a product search for an e-commerce website. This adds a whole new way to search for something using either natural language or to find something similar to a picture you take with your phone for example.
the image idea is fun. we just might be cooking up something in that department over the summer… stay tuned!
Yeah, Jason was just setting low expectations, apparently.
this is so good. i'm rootin for another episode
thank you! coming soon 👀
OHHHHHH!!! This turned out so cool!!!
thank you! excited for future episodes. I heard there are some pretty cool people joining
👀👀👀
Here for all of this!
💜
I love this!!
Very Informative and motivating for me.
great news! if you want to get in the mix we’ve got a giveaway going for folks who build an app before the next episode drops! check lwj.dev/blog/web-dev-challenge-giveaway-full-stack-amplify for details
nice vid!
Great environment. I love it.
Thank you!
D&D mentioned, let's go!!!
This is so rad!!!!!
thank you!
This is great Jason! This should be on Netflix 😅
thank you! I’ll figure out how to pitch a show to networks eventually 😅
just beautiful, learn is just this.Play commit errors, share stuff with other people and go to the next step alone and together. Help me to forgot how sometimes everything turns so repetitive
Jason’s app is really cool, it seems better already than whatever TH-cam does for suggestions lol
thanks! honestly I was just thrilled that I got working code on screen by the end 😆
Great Vlog👍🏾
As a programmer this is a good challenge series. Glad to find this on my recommendation
thanks for watching!
Banger video
thank you!
I really wish I hadn't seen this video. The stuff these developers are making seems so fun and awesome, and I have no idea what they were saying 99% of the time. If I was asked to do this I would fail miserably.
don’t forget that we were helping each other and had Carter there for support. no one was alone! 💜
good stuff 👏
thanks Colby!
This is content!
outstanding 😎
ON TOUR TO THE UK WHEN????
when the budgets align! 😅
I would much rather watch developer shows like this. Great job on the episode!
thank you!
Jack is an absolute G 😀
"Wait... Jar Jar is your 50 yard line?" 🤣
right?! 💀
it feels like when Jack starts talking, mic quality gets much better lol
Do you wanna finish mine? Hell no 🤣
pretty rude, right? 😆
My idea would've been to create a thesaurus of sorts. Ever since I watched 3Blue1Brown's short on how LLMs transform words into vectors, I just want to grab those vectors and do math with them directly before running the LLM backwards to generate a word from a vector. Will AVERAGE(Canada, Mexico) = America? What is dot(anger, apoplectic) * joy?
That last question I want answered especially badly. Lethologica annoys me to NO END. All I want is a word that means to "joy" what "apoplectic" means to "anger" and I CANNOT THINK OF IT. Thesauri are terrible at this, I've tried using them that way.
great, now I want to know what that word is too 😆
Amazing🎉
thank you’
A great lesson in marketing...... Jack has those Ron Burgandy vibes all day!
Great production!!
may i ask what is the font at 0:40
YEEESSS! MOOORE! ❤
soon 👀
Absolutely Love this...Subscribe
This was fun. I'm curious, how much time did y'all take to review the vector db concepts, astra itself , and come up with an idea before you started the build countdown?
I think Jack and Lizzie had *some* idea of how it worked before the episode. Chance and I learned it from Carter about 2 minutes before we started planning 😆
@@learnwithjason LOL, nice. Sometimes you just have to dive in and build I guess. Great job to all!
"I'm good... but I know other people are freaking out"
💯💯💯
I think I would start by getting a more ergonomic setup.
Jack is the coding GIGACHAD in this episode hahaha, all had great idea and executed well for only 4 hours.
lol Jack really came in and set the bar for sure 😆
We need someone going "it will keel"
This video inspired me to create a new pet project so that I can try out a new programming language thank you for that
YES so happy to hear that! and just in case: there’s an active challenge and giveaway leading up to the next episode if you want to play along with the community! www.learnwithjason.dev/blog/web-dev-challenge-giveaway-full-stack-amplify
yes chatbot day
J.Herr, my React guy
Ah. What a show off.
We didnt see the demo for the last one :(
we had an issue with the screen recording, unfortunately. the source code is in the description if you want to check it out!
What theme is Jack using? Been looking for it for a long time. Anybody?
Night Wolf [black] with JetBrains Mono
weird question, what external HP monitors is everyone using? on the hunt for a good monitor to my Mac but so far they end up not that great.
I don't remember the exact model later, but my studio has the 24" LG Ultra-fine monitors. they're solid!
@@learnwithjason hard to find in Aus at the moment, at least on the shelves. Thanks.
"LLMs are kind of like me sometimes, where im very confidently incorrect" 🍪
Lizzie is low-key hilarious
we got master chef dev version before gta 6
Is there any tutorial for this ?
I suddenly got interested in vector databases
Please, always put their names underneath anytime they speak to follow up
The Office would be proud.
doing our best over here 🫡
Need Gordon Ramsey as judge !
looooool
Note to self, don’t build a chat bot 🤖
lol
Can we have a full reality show of developers?
I'm working on it! just have to prove to sponsors and/or networks that people want to watch it 💜
@@learnwithjason awesome. u can expand your viewers pool doing 1 day game dev, 1 day designers, 1 day web, etc...
