A guy I know got dumped 8 months ago for not having a real job. He was 22. Made her dinner every Sunday. Spent 14 hours a day on his laptop in their $1,100 studio. She told her mom he was lazy. This video is him. Same quiet voice. Explaining how he clears $187,000 a month renting places he'll never own. Thirty-one units. Four cities. I called him after I watched it twice. "Does she know?" "She texted last Tuesday." "What'd you say?" "Nothing yet." He still cooks on Sundays. Just not for her. His exact system is in the article. Your city. Two minutes. Most people will bookmark this and never open.

A dude who fixes phones for a living built himself an actual Jarvis. I'm not saying "like Jarvis." I'm saying his room wakes up at 5:40 AM and starts doing things by itself. Screens turn on. Invoices go out. Calendar sorts itself. Clients get reminders he never wrote. He's not even in the room yet. He can't code. At all. He talked to AI for one weekend and told it what he wants. That's it. The AI built everything. Now he has an app making $30,000 a month and a system that runs his entire life while he sits there deciding what to do with his day. He quit fixing phones two months ago. Every single person who's seen his setup says the same thing. "I want one." Yeah. Me too. It's free. One evening to set up.

A roofer in LA paid $1,700 for a website. It took the guy who made it 9 minutes. $11,900 last month. 7 clients. $29 in costs. He finds businesses on Google Maps that have no website. Types one prompt. AI builds the whole site. He sends a link and a price. He had to ask his mom "how to send an invoice" before his first client. He's 19. works maybe 2 hours a week. You're reading this on a phone that can do the same thing.

She said she needs money. He opened Google Maps. Found a burger spot with no website. Gave AI the name and two photos. Fifteen minutes later a full website was sitting on his screen. Called the owner. "I made you a website." The owner said how much. "$1,500." Paid same day. That was a Tuesday. By Friday he'd done it three more times. There are 3 million restaurants on Google Maps right now with no website. All of them need one. None of them know how easy it is to make. He knows. She quit her job within a month.

"I was definitely the first prompt engineer at Anthropic. Might have been the first in the world." Alex Albert just spent 35 minutes explaining how they train Claude's personality from the inside. 35 minutes. free. by the person who invented the role. most people think Claude's character is a system prompt. it's not. you'll never look at Claude the same way.

My neighbor built himself a JARVIS. Not a joke. I watched it run. Known him 3 years. Fixes phones. Dropped out at 19. Couldn't write a line of code if you paid him. Walked into his place last Thursday. His screen was alive. Calendar, tasks, notes sorting themselves, prioritizing, preparing his entire morning at 5:40 AM. His hands weren't even on the keyboard. I looked around his desk. Just a laptop and his coffee. I asked what this was. "My assistant." "Since when?" "Since I stopped forgetting things." His system knew his kid's dentist appointment, a client promise from 3 weeks ago, and 2 invoices he hadn't sent. All queued. All ready. Before coffee. I have 4 apps and forgot my own dentist last Tuesday. The whole thing is online. Free. Open source. His full setup is in the article. One evening. Most people will read this and never build it.

he tested 5760 architectures at Google for a full year. the winner was the original Transformer from 2017. Hyung Won Chung told that story at MIT with a small smile. then went to OpenAI and trained o1. 1 hour. free. by one of the few people on earth who actually moves the frontier. meanwhile your feed is full of guys writing architecture threads who have never trained a model anyone uses. he just told MIT that 99% of AI research is theater. your AI worldview was built by men who read his papers. badly. now you can read him directly. you will rewatch this. save it now.

My old classmate got called a "f*cking loser" from the street while he was sending a $500 invoice. He found out from the video three days later. Laughed. Sent another invoice. He builds websites in Google AI Studio, cold-calls businesses that don't know what AI is, and closes them at $500 plus $297 a month. Last Tuesday he made $1,782 before lunch. He's 22. No degree. No team. No code. One AI tool. Six prompts. $20 monthly costs. When I asked if he feels like he's missing out he just said "missing out on what?" His full setup is in the article below. Not just the prompts. Everything.

Got a Discord ping from my cousin in Cleveland last Tuesday. Screenshot of his Stripe: $34,917.43 in October. I asked what he sold. "Books." He's 19. Hasn't written one. Hasn't read one of his own. 100 of them on Amazon under 7 pen names since February. His grandma bought one at the Walmart in Akron last month. He didn't have the heart to tell her she paid $14.99 for ChatGPT. Stephen King wrote 65 books in 50 years. My cousin did 100 in 8 months. His Discord status still says "studying for finals." Three tools. One model. He doesn't even pay for Claude. The mechanism is so stupid Amazon hasn't bothered to ban it. They take 30% of every sale and it adds up. The 0.625-inch margin rule kills 90% of people before their first royalty. Nobody talks about it because the people who know are too busy clearing $4,200 a day. Penguin Random House: 10,000 employees. 85,000 books a year. 90% cut from their authors. My cousin: 100 books. $34,917 in October. 7 pen names. 12,400 copies of his top seller. 0 sentences typed by hand. Amazon's ToS section 8.4 closes the window on January 1st. 64 days left. Some guy wrote up the mechanism. 12 minutes. Every step. Every margin trick. In 8 months somebody from your year buys his parents a house. He read this tonight. You scrolled.

My cousin sent me a video of himself in a taxi in Africa. I was like bro when did you fly to Africa. He didn’t. He’s never left Texas. The whole video is AI. His face. Real streets. Real traffic. Real people. All generated. He typed a few sentences and got a finished video of himself in a place he’s never been. Last month he made 31 videos like this. $11,740. Zero filming. He’s 21. Lives with his mom in Houston. ChatGPT plus one video tool. $19 a month. He told me “I can make a video of myself anywhere doing anything.”

a Google researcher walked into MIT and made an AI do math correctly by adding seven words to the prompt. the seven words: "you are an MIT mathematician." drop them, model gets it wrong. add them, right. same model. same question. every time. Carter Smith. runs Gemini at Google. 1 hour. free. he then spent the next 50 minutes explaining why. it is the cleanest hour on how LLMs actually work I have seen in two years. you will come back to this. save it now.

17 years old. Austin. $8,400 first month on his Fortnite map. Three weekends of work. He's never written code. His stack: a Macbook and seven prompt files. He doesn't write Verse — Epic's scripting language. Claude does. They iterate until it compiles. Four sentences in: currency tick, upgrade tree, leaderboard, daily bonus. Files generated in 45 seconds. A map called pandvil clears $100,000+ a month. $722,000,000 paid out by Epic last year. Across 260,000 maps. 58 millionaires. Top earner cleared $20,400,000 from one map. 100% revenue share until December 31, 2026. Then 50%. Permanently. One prompt. 30 seconds to run. $0/mo or $20,000/mo. Same prompt. 245 days left.

two OpenAI researchers walked into Stanford and made every AI thread on your feed look like fan fiction. Jason Wei invented Chain of Thought. Hyung Won Chung built o1. 1 hour. free. Jason shows the chart that explains why AI suddenly gets new abilities. even OpenAI cannot predict when. Hyung Won shows the one trend that controls the entire field. every AI headline fits one frame after this. every other AI take on your feed is grown men playing dress up. skip this and every AI thread feels hollow. save this. you will rewatch it.

Anthropic's CEO just explained on Lex Fridman how Claude actually works. 4 hours. free. with the CEO, the person who built Claude's character, and the founder of mechanistic interpretability. most people use Claude every day at maybe 10% of what it can actually do. this video is the other 90%. Save it. This will change the way you use Claude forever.
