Ask HN: How to price your AI Products?
I'm developing an AI-powered product for consumers and grappling with pricing. The variable costs, including training and API calls, make traditional pricing models challenging. I'm curious about others' experiences with pricing AI products. What strategies have worked? What pitfalls should I avoid?
From a customer's perspective, what pricing model would you consider fair for an AI product?

Balancing AI Innovation with Responsible Development – Your Approach?
As AI rapidly evolves, I'm grappling with the challenge of balancing innovation and responsible development. I'd love to hear from the HN community about your experiences and guidelines.
In my work, I've been trying to adhere to principles like transparency, fairness, privacy, and accountability. However, these often conflict with rapid innovation and development. For instance, achieving fairness and ensuring airtight privacy protection might slow development, while transparency could reveal competitive advantages.
Questions I'm wrestling with:
- How do you manage the trade-off between innovation speed and ethical considerations? - What specific guidelines or frameworks do you follow? - How do you handle situations where ethics might impact business goals? - What tools or processes have you found effective for ethical AI development? - How do you stay updated on evolving ethical standards in AI?
I'm particularly interested in hearing from those working on cutting-edge AI projects. How do you navigate uncharted ethical territories? Any cautionary tales or success stories to share?
Thanks in advance to whoever participates in the discussion here. Your insights could help shape more responsible AI development practices across the industry.

Show HN: Over 600 CSS Animations to Code

We’re excited to share Gradienty's CSS Animation Generator designed to make web animations intuitive and accessible for developers and designers at any level. Whether you’re new to CSS animations or a seasoned pro looking to save time, Gradienty equips you with the tools to create beautiful animations with zero coding headaches.
Key Features: 1. 600+ Pre-Built Animations: From subtle hover effects to complex keyframe sequences, all categorized for easy navigation. 2. Visual Editor with Live Preview: See your animations in action as you tweak timing, easing, delay, and iterations. 3. Responsive Design Previews: Test animations across layouts for desktop and mobile compatibility. 4. Multiple Preview Objects: Visualize animations on text, buttons, boxes, circles, and more. 5. One-Click Code Export: Generate production-ready CSS with proper vendor prefixes, ready to drop into your project. 6. Zero-Dependency Animations: Works flawlessly across all modern browsers.
Why We Built This:
As developers, we often found animations to be either overly complex to implement manually or limited by pre-made libraries. Gradienty bridges this gap by offering both flexibility and ease of use, helping you create animations that look and perform great—without sacrificing development time.
Who It’s For:
Beginners: Experiment with animations visually without writing a single line of code. Designers: Focus on creativity while leaving the technical aspects to the generator. Developers: Save time with ready-to-use animations that can be customized and exported instantly.
What’s Next:
We’re working on adding community features like user-created animation libraries, animation presets for specific design systems, and integration guides for popular frameworks.

Ask HN: Resources for SQL database schema design/performance?
I have a solid understanding of the basics of relational DB performance (Indexing, different types of scans etc...) but I always seem to run into situations where I have complex and slow SQL queries and I'm not sure how to optimize them. I've often heard the rule of thumb that any user-facing query that takes longer than 100ms is too slow but I've never seen that play out in my experience with many complex application queries taking a handful of seconds. Does anyone have any suggestions for required reading related to performant data architecture?
I've gotten better at reading "Explain Analyze" output but I have trouble coming up with actionable changes to make based on the query plan.
