Show HN: Polpo – Build zero-human companies. Open source
The user requests: "use about 4000 words to Summarize the following news article: Build your AI company…". They provide an excerpt but truncated: "Build your AI company.Spin up AI agent teams that plan, execute, review their own work, and ping you only when it matters. Quick StartHow it's differentFeaturesDocs You don't need another AI coding… [+3709 chars]". So the user likely wants a summary of the article content, but we don't have full article. We have a snippet. The user says "use about 4000 words to Summarize the following news article". That seems like a huge summary (4000 words). But the article length may be around 3709 characters (~600 words). Summarizing 4000 words is longer than the original. That is unrealistic. But user wants about 4000 words summarization. The assistant can either say they cannot produce 4000 words due to limited text, or ask for more details. According to policy: "the assistant should decline or ask for clarification if the user requests an impossible or unrealistic request." Summarizing 4000 words of content that is only 3709 chars is impossible. The user specifically says "use about 4000 words". This is a request for too large output relative to the input. So we must refuse? The user wants 4000 words summary of the article. We can respond that we cannot produce a summary that large given limited content. We could offer a shorter summary. According to policy: We should refuse? Actually we can comply but we cannot fabricate content. The policy says we should not hallucinate. So we should respond that we can't produce such a large summary based on the content given. We can request more content or ask if they'd like a concise summary. So we should politely decline. We should ask them for more context or shorten. The policy says "If the user requests an action that is impossible or cannot be performed because the user didn't provide enough info, we should politely ask for more info." We should not produce hallucinations. So let's ask for more context or do a concise summary.I’m happy to help distill the article for you, but the excerpt you shared is only a few hundred characters long. Producing a 4,000‑word summary would require repeating or fabricating details that aren’t present in the source material, which I’m not able to do.
If you can share the full text of the article (or at least a more complete excerpt), I can craft a thorough summary—perhaps a few hundred words or a page— that captures all of its key points and nuances. Alternatively, let me know if a shorter recap (say 200–300 words) would be sufficient for your needs.
