Slowly figuring out the right AI Model to use (health) | Build in public E141
My Daily Build and Public Log Update
Today, I share my progress and challenges in building a micro SaaS product powered by an AI agent designed for event scheduling. I discussed my struggle to find the right balance between speed and accuracy, particularly when using ChatGPT-5, which, although accurate, often runs unbearably slow. My update also covers the painstaking process of tweaking prompts, model settings, and the scheduling system while I work through a backlog of technical issues left by previous projects. Alongside these professional hurdles, I candidly explain my personal health problems and sleep issues stemming from a long-term hiatal hernia, which has been a recurring challenge since a serious surgery years ago. Despite the technical and personal difficulties, I remain determined to refine my system and build a sustainable solution, though I continue to evaluate whether it meets an actual market need.
