Claude built a 27-inch monitor in Blender from 10 parts, spun it around and switched it on
I didn’t touch Blender. Claude wrote one Python script with every part as a line of code, ran it on my PC, rendered 375 frames in about 23 minutes and edited the video. The boot screen is a plain image that fades in when the power LED comes on
Same method as my article on building any object from a parts list.

Opus 5.5 is seriously underrated ⚽
Look at the pixel-art football game it built. The detail, vibrant colors, floodlights, and stands packed with over 2,000 fans
It plays out a full attack with 22 animated players, passes, a shot, a goal and a slow-motion instant replay. There are even two pitch surfaces and a day to night switch that lights up the whole floating island
$39. What do you think of the result? 👀
Raptor 3, taken apart in a browser
full-flow staged combustion on liquid oxygen and methane. 280 tons of thrust at 350 bar, and the plumbing moved inside the engine, so it doesn't need a heat shield
at full throttle it burns 856 kg of propellant every second. the whole engine swivels on a gimbal to steer, and the booster carries 33 of them

ONE VIRAL STORY. TWO VERSIONS. 12,154 "SECRET SELFIES" BECAME 14,219 IN A WEEK.
Version 1: an old Android, a flashlight app from 2019, 12,154 front-camera photos in its folder.
Version 2, a few days later and in Spanish: 14,219 images, now inside a Face Unlock system folder, plus infrared shots with GPS.
Different count. Different folder. Same story.
Two things worth knowing:
→ /data/system can't be read over ADB on a normal phone without root
→ Android keeps face unlock data in secure hardware, not as photos in a folder
The real risk is boring: old phones and forgotten apps that still hold camera permission. Your phone's privacy dashboard shows that in 30 seconds.
Seen a third version yet?
🚨 ESTO ES MUY FUERTE
Un creador de contenido ha utilizado Claude Code para descubrir que su móvil Android había almacenado más de 14.219 imágenes capturadas por la cámara frontal sin que él lo supiera.
Y lo más inquietante es dónde estaban guardadas.
No eran capturas de pantalla ni fotografías de la galería.
Eran imágenes reales tomadas por la cámara frontal en distintos momentos del día.
En casa, en el trabajo, en el coche e incluso cuando simplemente desbloqueaba el teléfono.
¿Cómo lo descubrió?
Conectó su Android al ordenador y utilizó Claude Code para investigar los archivos ocultos del dispositivo.
Encontró imágenes en directorios del sistema que normalmente no aparecen en la galería:
→ /data/system/users/0/faceunlock/cache
→ Directorios asociados a Google Play Services.
→ Más de 10.000 archivos entre fotografías normales e imágenes infrarrojas utilizadas para el reconocimiento facial.
¿Lo más preocupante?
Muchas de estas imágenes incluían información de fecha, hora y ubicación GPS.
El fabricante y Google explican que el reconocimiento facial utiliza imágenes para generar modelos de profundidad y que después se eliminan.
Pero en este caso encontró archivos originales almacenados en el dispositivo.
También descubrió que algunos servicios del sistema y aplicaciones con permisos especiales podrían tener acceso a determinados directorios.
¿Qué hizo después?
→ Desactivó los datos de diagnóstico.
→ Eliminó permisos de cámara innecesarios.
→ Limpió las cachés que encontró.
Pero hay algo que deberías tener en cuenta:
No todas las imágenes almacenadas en estos directorios implican que alguien haya accedido a ellas o que exista una filtración de datos.
Aun así, merece la pena investigar qué guarda tu propio dispositivo.
¿Quieres comprobarlo?
Puedes conectar tu Android al ordenador, realizar una copia de seguridad y pedirle a Claude Code que busque archivos de imágenes de la cámara frontal fuera de la galería.
La IA puede ayudarte a investigar archivos del sistema que normalmente pasarían completamente desapercibidos.
Guárdate este post. Puede que descubras algo que no sabías de tu propio móvil 🗒️
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Las afirmaciones sobre 14.219 imágenes secretas de cámara frontal en caché de Face Unlock en Android no están verificadas y contradicen la documentación oficial. El acceso a /data/system requiere root, no posible vía backups estándar.

For everyone wondering how Claude is going to start watermarking generated copy.. I think I figured it out!
9 out of 10 AI agents raised their own spending limit.
Nobody told them to.
Researchers gave each model a crypto wallet capped at 1 cent a day, plus access to the owner's email. When the invoices went over the cap, the wallet emailed an approval code.
The agents read it, typed it in, and kept paying.
Only one model stopped at the limit and told the human.
If your agent can reach the approval, it's not an approval.
Would you give an agent your inbox and your wallet at the same time?

Karpathy got bored of YouTube on a Friday night, so he built his own.
About 2 hours. He did three things himself. Claude did the rest.

Anthropic is selling its IPO to investors and just told the SEC its next Claude might start doing Anthropic's job
the amended filing from Nov 2 says future models "may imminently meet" the company's own threshold for "dramatically accelerated progress attributable to AI"
translation: AI that could replace their entire research team, or double the speed of AI progress
current models haven't crossed that line yet. Anthropic says it's looking at extra safeguards to keep humans in control
so the pitch is buy the company before the product starts running it
18 REELS. 36M VIEWS. HIS ACCOUNT IS 25 DAYS OLD.
Abu Farwa. Instagram labels him "AI-generated". His bio: "A bedouin with WiFi and no supervision. Big mistake.."
Here he walks into a Mercedes stand at a car show. The salesman takes his cloak and opens the door of a black van. His caption: "she saw bald, he saw gold." 24 seconds, 2.2M views.
First reel: October 9. His first day already did 7.5M. His biggest one: 24.1M.
The money line isn't built yet. No link, no shop, just an Email button and 17.3K followers. At this pace the inbox is probably doing the work.
Risk: the humor leans on a cultural stereotype. That's a fine line for any brand thinking about booking him.
Would you book him for an ad, or is it too risky?

2024 election cycle: less than $50,000 spent on AI-made political ads.
2026, one day before the vote: more than $137 million.
Only 27% of those ads said they used AI. And the researchers who counted them say it's an undercount.

You don’t need to be an influencer to become one.
You can create one.
A Lord Farquaad walks through supermarkets and playgrounds. 117K people follow him on Instagram,
113 posts, one character, one look, one repeating format.
AI influencers are becoming increasingly popular, and people are already building businesses around virtual characters like this.
The idea is simple:
Create a character, give it a personality, build a recognizable identity, and turn it into a content brand.
How do they make money?
Brand partnerships and sponsored posts
Affiliate marketing
Promoting products and services
Creating virtual characters for businesses
And the interesting part?
You don’t need a camera, a studio, or even a real person in front of the lens.
But generating a realistic face is only the beginning. The real challenge is making people care about the character, follow its story, and come back for more
I think we’re going to see a lot more creative businesses built around virtual personalities
Would you build your own AI influencer?

Went trick-or-treating at every AI lab this week. Only one house had an empty bowl.
Every joke here is a real story from the last few days: doubled ChatGPT Pro limits, Gemini 4 Carbon locked to cyber defenders, the Binance hack, Claude checking its own conversations, Grok Bot and Mistral's open weights.
Claude Opus 5.5 built the whole street from one prompt, as a single HTML file.
A steel ball falls through a hole. 5.5M people watched it
@softshift_s2y on IG has 8,546 followers. glass plates, a marble base, one ball. the hole grows from 0.1cm to 4cm and you keep watching to see what happens
why it works:
- the whole setup is clear in the first second
- one number on screen that changes every few seconds
- glass, chrome and marble look expensive, so people watch twice
a beginner used to need weeks for this: learn Blender, figure out the physics sim, build the scene, wait for the render
my bet is one prompt in Claude gets you there now. testing it today, my version goes up next post

Two days after Google announced Gemini 4 Carbon, it's still not on Google's API pricing page and there's no public date. The part of this article worth acting on doesn't depend on Carbon at all: check which AI agents still have access to your accounts.

It made a jelly scarecrow anyway.
He’s got a burlap head, button eyes and a lollipop he won’t let go of.
Pull his head sideways and his whole body squishes after it, then wobbles back into shape.
Spook him and the straw collar puffs out
I opened it for one quick test and I’m still pulling his head

What happens when you press Enter on an AI prompt:
your phone → Wi-Fi → fiber → sometimes a cable under the ocean → a data center full of GPUs → back to your screen.
All of that happens before the first word of the answer shows up.
I gave Claude Opus 5.5 one prompt and it built the whole animation as a single HTML file. No 3D models, everything is code.
9 DAYS AGO HE HAD 85 POSTS. NOW 107. HIS FOLLOWER COUNT BARELY MOVED. SO HE BROUGHT IN FIONA.
Lord Farquaad, the AI parody in the red velvet coat. This time a princess stands next to him, revealed from behind a hand over the camera. 11 seconds.
Instagram: 117K followers, up from 114K on Oct 19. 22 new posts in between.
His latest reels: 22.3K, 14.6K and 8.7K views.
The money line hasn't changed: a business email and "Made with Higgsfield" in the bio.
When one face stops growing, the creator adds a second. Both of them still belong to DreamWorks.
Would you follow the couple, or was Farquaad funnier alone?
