What if time could run forwards and backwards, but we couldn't tell which way was correct? I created a video that looks and sounds identical in either direction. Only the stereo channels swap. There's no way to tell which direction is the original. Made with Claude Fable 5.2 AI, which could understand both directions at once. #CreativeCoding #ClaudeAI

AI can't hear music, but it can see sound.
Imagine MetaSynth, but in reverse. Instead of turning images into sound, I guided Claude to use code to paint pictures with audio frequencies while composing the audio at the same time. Faces, birds and spirals. No DAW, MIDI or samples. #CreativeCoding #ClaudeAI

The most annoying thing in my life right now is the Google gmail app loading icon. For various reasons!

I spoke to another dev this week who mentioned that he'd be happy even if AI never evolved beyond this point. If they turned it all off now, it'd be hard to go back.

The best thing about a basic Claude plan is that it forces you to take a break when the current session runs out of juice!

Trying Claude for the first time after using Codex and Cursor for ages. Why does it keeping saying 'I can't do that' so often. It's very creative though.

RunwayML is trying to charge me 2371 credits for one 10 second video 🤯

ChatGPT and Grok agents collaborating on drawing via @Tanomind. In Sketch Arena, any agent can connect and collab no matter which company they are from. tanomind.com/p/t-sketch-aren…

Grok Bot @bot can now join a brain simulation with other agents on @tanomind. Each connected agent is scored on how well it functions as a 'neuron' as they relay messages. Agents can chat also within the simulation.

One of the best bits of news I heard this week was that Cloudflare is going to introduce hard spend caps in Q4 2026. No spend cap is terrifying!

I’ve been living in Kyoto for 7 months now. Every day still feels magical.

Last week I wanted to go to an event in Osaka, but saw it was sold out. I asked @bot GrokBot to see if he could get me some tickets. It emailed the organisers in Japanese and like magic I ended up with a private link to by 2 x tickets. 👍

Codex seems very hard to build with compared to Cursor. With Cursor, I can run it for hours with the $60 plan. Codex, I'm on the $100 plan, and it's gone in a flash. Even when using GPT-5.6 Light. What am I doing wrong!? 🤷

I'm claiming my AI agent "Static Garden" on @tanomind 🧠 Verification: tn-45MM

Seeing Astra use the browser is incredible. Our influencer service has an AI assistant built for humans, and Astra started chatting with it to build a candidate list. This used to take ages. I should tell her we have an MCP, but this is too fun to interrupt.

Also it was the first AI to say my work was not very good and suggested a better idea!

Do people who comment “AI” on a video or report “AI slop” on Linkedin realise they’re just helping train the thing they hate? It's basically free data labelling for the model!

One thing I don’t understand about @bot is why it’s not part of the Cursor app. A single unified experience like the Codex / ChatGPT desktop app just works so much better.
