I work for a company doing marketing (I make ads). Essentially I've trained my OpenClaw machine to know everything it needs about the company, know what will perform best, and then it writes a script, creates an avatar, generates videos, b-roll, edits them together with captions and CTA end card. And they've performed better than when I was doing it all manually. Pretty crazy.

Opus is the worst at it. Fable 5 still does it a little. Fable 5.1 is much improved, at least.

Imagine if Apple truly went the route of local AI and every Mac came with a fully local, open weight Siri. They could put Anthropic and OpenAI out of business.

Fable 5 was amazing and then I switched to Opus 5 because it was supposed to be similar in ability but half the price and... it was fine but it definitely wrote in a very weird way that annoyed me all the time. Nice to know that others feel the same way!

Need to upgrade to a second 3090! Slowly building up my local models with Krea2, MiniMax H3 (and their new Music3), and now Qwen 3.8

Sounds kinda annoying to work purely on an iPhone, but very cool experiment nonetheless!

Instead of competing with other nations, what if we all worked together as humans?

Saw another comment that said this will give Apple the opportunity to learn if people really want a thinner iPhone. I hope they learn that people don't. Curious to find out the answer.

I just can't imagine anyone wanting this? Please correct me if I'm wrong, but do people really want a thinner phone? I love my 16 Pro and plan to get the 17 Pro.

Definitely feel like thicker and longer battery is better. Heavier feels nice.

I got this view the other day and was shocked. Went and found a browser plugin to fix it. But I wish our voices could be heard or we could give some feedback.

As a game dev who's been learning ASM recently this was very fun to read through. Wish there was a compiled ROM I could try, but I guess I have to do it myself!

Very interesting. To me TikTok is nothing but memes and useless stuff. Whereas Instagram has been an amazing community for many of my passions. And now Threads is gaining in popularity as well (it really feels like hope scrolling in comparison to X's doom scrolling). I wish it wasn't owned by Meta, but if TikTok actually gets banned I would say good riddance. Something about Instagram/Threads is just perfect to me.

I bought my 20 month old son a balance bike for Christmas and he's already able to balance on it a month later while going down the sidewalk. Great method!

Living in Southern California, I like to go on walks with my family in the evenings or mornings, but I couldn't imagine having to take public transportation or having to walk everywhere. It seems picturesque, but it also sounds terrible in the sense that you can't just get in your car, go some place, park in a parking lot, go shopping, and then head back home, all on your own terms.

I visited London a long time ago and the public transportation is amazing and it I did want to walk to see the city, which I did. But I imagine even living there, I would want my own car to be in control of my life.

So, visiting a place is good for walking. But living in a place is not. At least that's my experience.

Totally agree with this. I have a 9-5 that I don't hate, but I would love to just spend time with my family and focus on my hobbies. I would be beyond happy doing that for the rest of my life.
