How do you approach Context Engineering when building with OpenAI models?

Lately, I have been experimenting with how to feed context into GPT models more effectively.

For example, when fine-tuning or working with larger context windows, I have noticed that the dilemma is in organizing the surrounding information, rather than the prompt itself. Last week, I came to know that it's called Context Engineering.

Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Ebony, a mom + tech optimist building in AI

Hey everyone, I m Ebony.

I ve spent the last decade working alongside founders and CEOs in Silicon Valley, and now I m building in the consumer AI space myself. I m a tech optimist at heart I believe the future of technology shouldn t just be more advanced, it should be more human.

I m especially interested in making AI usable and empowering for everyday people, not just experts.

A little about me: I m a mom of four, a lifelong community builder, and I ve always been drawn to projects that put care and connection at the center of design. Right now, I m working on something new (still semi-stealth) that tries to do exactly that.

Accepting payments? Yikes!

Hi everyone! I'm Travis, I've been a software developer since 2006 and I've worked on a good number of open source projects and side projects. Recently I integrated Stripe for the first time in one of my projects, in order to....*gasp*....charge users and accept payments. The integration was easier than expected, but it still feels kind of slimy to be asking for money for something that was a side project and I just built for fun. On the other hand, I'm using OpenAI credits, so if I actually gave it away totally for free, it would simply cost me more and more money as time went on, especially if it went viral (the dream). So I justify the payments as a scaling/sustainability measure.

Interested to hear others' perspective on this one. Is accepting payments completely shameless? Does it sully the reputation of your project? Necessary evil?
