A 14-year-old student ordered a Raspberry Pi Zero W... for $15, a small LCD screen for $12 and printed a case on a 3D printer for $3. $30 total and a package from AliExpress. He built a Pwnagotchi - a device that looks like a toy with a little face on the screen and automatically intercepts WiFi handshake packets nearby. Just sits on the desk, smiles and collects data. Then he used the intercepted data to break into the internal network where the GTA VI pre-alpha build was stored. The one Rockstar keeps locked away from everyone. The debug console appeared on screen. Jason's inventory. Simulation Variables - atmospheric controls, AI traffic behavior, coastal cliff region generative tests. Things only the developers were supposed to see. Rockstar spent 10 years and keeps a team of 2,000 engineers to protect that build. The student spent $30 and built the device in an evening.show more

THIS 12-YEAR-OLD CHINESE KID JUST BUILT THE IRON MAN... INTERFACE WITHOUT WRITING A LINE OF CODE He waves his hand and 6500 particles on the screen behind him morph into Saturn, then a globe, then an alien mountain range. The trick is MediaPipe tracking his fingers through a laptop webcam, mapped to a particle physics engine running in the browser. He didn't write the code. He told Gemini what he wanted to see, copy-pasted the output, and shipped it to GitHub the same night. The ceiling for what a kid in his bedroom can build has quietly become absurd. Last year this was a Stanford grad project and this year it is a Tuesday... Save this time capsule from 2026 ↓show more

Space objects in 3D NASA created 3D models of... stars and supernova remnants by combining data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory with computer calculations. These models can not only be viewed on the screen, but also printed on a 3D printer. Here they are, from left to right — the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A, the young star BP Tauri, the planetary nebula Cygnus Loop, and the supernova remnant G292.0+1.8.show more

THIS GUY DID A SPECIAL FLIGHT TRACKING RADAR USING... CLAUDE THAT SHOWS EVERY AIRCRAFT NEAR WHERE YOU ARE USB-powered. AMOLED touchscreen. Tap any dot on the screen - it tells you the airline, the speed, the registration, whether it's climbing or descending. It sits on his desk. He glances out the window and knows exactly what's flying overhead. He built it in a week, just as a project for himself. Then it blew up. Now people want one. Total cost in parts: about $100. Most people look up and see a dot. He built a window into the whole sky. He built his radar for what's in the air. I built mine for what's on the ticket - using Claude to find the cheapest flight before you book.show more

A 19-year-old student from China, Zhang Wei, developed an... AI radar and sold it to Hong Kong for $550,000 He created it using Claude, spending just $20 and a month on development He walked into the Hong Kong administration office with a flash drive and asked for just 5 minutes of their time. 30 minutes later, he walked out with a check for $550,000 The code, connected to a camera, detects speed in real time. If the speed exceeds the limit, Claude takes a video clip and identifies the owner by the car's license plate. The video and the fine are then automatically sent to the owner's email address Unlike a conventional radar that only takes a photo and doesn't always work, this AI radar eliminates disputes because it captures video and makes the process fully autonomous by sending out the fines on its own The article includes the ready-to-use configurations.show more

Seedance 2 is so good at character and scene... consistency across cuts. I tested it with a short film on something I learned last week about cats. The key is detailed prompts - take your story to an LLM to nail the structure, then to Krea to make the video. Take my prompt 👇 Style: high-quality 3D animation, expressive character acting, cozy lighting, cinematic composition Timestamped structure: 0:00 - 0:02 Open on a cozy desk setup in a home office. A black cat, Finn, is near the desk, alert and curious. The woman with brown hair and blue eyes sits at her computer, pulling up a YouTube-style bird video. The screen shows colorful birds hopping on branches. Finn immediately locks in on the movement. 0:03 - 0:05 The woman smiles knowingly and adjusts the monitor so Finn can see better. She lightly gestures toward the screen. Finn jumps onto the chair or desk edge and sits facing the monitor, ears forward, body still, completely mesmerized by the birds. 0:05 - 0:07 The woman gets up from the desk and walks away casually, leaving Finn watching. Finn remains seated, staring at the bird video with total concentration. Maybe a subtle tail flick or tiny head movement tracks the birds on screen. 0:07 - 0:10 Cut to later in the day, in the exact same office. The woman is now back at the desk in a Zoom meeting, still with the single monitor on the same desk. The computer screen now shows a video call grid or work presentation instead of the birds. She is mid-conversation, professional and focused, seated upright, saying "and now we'll move to the next slide" 0:10 - 0:12 Finn suddenly jumps up onto the desk from below, entering frame with urgency. He looks at the screen, confused and dissatisfied that the birds are gone. He starts pawing at the screen and the woman is shocked and embarrassedshow more

A 30-year-old Chinese man turned himself into an AI... girl, and the result will shock you He built a $3,700/month Fanvue business in his bedroom He didn't use wigs or cosplay. He used AI to build a completely new identity on top of his own footage Same room, same camera, but a totally different creator on screen His workflow is stupidly simple: Claude designs the character, ComfyUI generates the face, and Kling turns stills into viral reels In his first month, he barely cleared $320. But in the second month, one video hit 500,000 views Money started rolling in: he gained 50 paid Fanvue subscribers before any real automation even started The secret weapon? A custom Claude system that analyzes chat data, optimizes pricing, and drafts replies to fans in the girl's voice He only spends 30 minutes a day scheduling reels and running the machine This is no longer content creation. It is identity arbitrage The full workflow and tools he used are available in the articleshow more

A 20-year-old student from China, Li Hao, built an... AI speed radar with Claude alone and sold it to a city district for $317,000 He wrote the whole thing in 9 days, spending about $20 on Claude API calls He set an old camera on his balcony, pointed it at the intersection below, and let Claude watch the road Claude tags every car, motorbike and pedestrian in real time, 653 in five minutes, and flags anyone over the limit The moment a car speeds, Claude clips the video, reads the license plate, matches the owner, and emails the fine on its own A normal radar takes one photo and misses half the time. Claude records full video, so there is nothing to dispute, and the fines go out with no operator He walked into the district office with a flash drive and asked for 10 minutes. he left with a contract Every Claude config he used is in the articleshow more

A 19 year old Chinese student controls an AI... security system from his bed through Telegram. Types one message on his phone, the device across the room wakes up, starts watching and reports back to him like an employee. While American companies charge $100 for a Ring camera plus $4 a month for cloud, this kid spent $10 once and built something smarter. He sent a Telegram message: open maixcam and notify me if a person detected. One second later his phone buzzed back. Green checkmark. Status: Active. Monitoring: Person detection enabled. Notifications: Telegram ready. His roommate laughed. Said a $10 device can't do real security. Then someone walked past the door. The phone buzzed instantly. Person detected. Class: person. Confidence: 92.00%. Position: (120, 80). Size: 100x150. Not a blurry photo 45 seconds later like Amazon cameras. Exact data in under 1 second. What it saw, how sure it is, where the person is standing, how big they are. All through a Telegram message. He built the whole thing with Claude Code in one weekend. The AI runs directly on the device, no cloud, no subscription, no internet needed after setup. 10MB of memory. Boots in 1 second. Camera sees, chip thinks, Telegram delivers. Posted a 17 second demo. GitHub exploded. 7,400 stars in 2 days. But person detection was just the demo. A developer in Tokyo forked it and pointed it at his front door. Telegram alert with a photo every time a delivery arrives. A mom in Seoul pointed it at her baby's crib. Gets a message when the baby stands up. A business owner in Shenzhen bought 6 for $60 total, mounted them around his warehouse and replaced a $200 a month security service. His entire security system is now a Telegram group chat with 6 AI cameras. Someone commented under the GitHub repo: I'm a senior engineer at a home security company. We have a team of 8 working on person detection. This 19 year old did it alone with Claude Code on a $10 device and it works better than our product. The student isn't a machine learning engineer. He's a second year CS student who wanted to know when his roommate eats his snacks. Claude Code wrote the detection model, the Telegram bot, the alert system and the boot sequence. He just described what he wanted. The roommate who laughed now has one pointed at his own shelf. Same device, same code, same Telegram bot. He stops losing snacks. The student stops losing sleep. Everyone is paying $100 for smart cameras with $4 monthly subscriptions. China is building the same thing for $10 with a Telegram chat and Claude Code. 7,400 stars. One weekend. One student who asked Claude Code to watch his door and accidentally built something better than Ring.show more

THIS GUY VIBE CODED A BROWSER TOOL WITH CLAUDE... CODE THAT DRAWS PROPERTY LINES ONTO DRONE FOOTAGE AND KEEPS THEM LOCKED TO THE GROUND AS THE DRONE MOVES real estate agents kept asking for those property boundary overlays on drone videos so buyers can see exactly where a lot ends. the only real option was after effects, which is a massive pro tool for one small repeatable job so he built a browser tool that does just that one thing > drop in a drone clip and draw the parcel outline once on the first frame > gpu motion tracking keeps that boundary stuck to the ground as the drone flies and the perspective shifts > if the line drifts anywhere, you drop a keyframe to correct it and it re-tracks the segments around it > style the line however you want, then export the finished video > free to use, you dont even need an account until you export he built one tool that solves one annoying job perfectly, for people who were never going to learn after effects anywayshow more

A 22-year-old college student in shenzhen reportedly made $14,700... in one month with a 900-yuan redmi phone. his parents still think he’s spending all his time preparing for exams. here’s what the phone does. every 30 minutes, it opens six chinese news apps, scans the latest headlines, takes screenshots, and sends them to claude for analysis. claude compares that information with polymarket odds and suggests potential betting opportunities. the entire workflow runs without writing a single line of code. it’s powered by phonedriver, an open-source tool that lets ai see your phone’s screen and operate it like a human. you simply describe the task in plain english, and it does the rest. the edge comes from timing. news often appears on chinese platforms like weibo and toutiao 20 to 50 minutes before english speaking traders fully react on polymarket. that small window can create an opportunity before the market catches up. some of those apps block web scrapers, but phonedriver doesn’t scrape data. it simply looks at what’s on the screen, just like a person would, then taps and swipes automatically.show more

A 19-year-old Chinese student spent $20 on Claude and... built a YouTube automation system making $7,400/month. Found 12 small channels getting 300,000+ views from the same lazy formats, copied the structure, not the videos. Titles, thumbnails, pacing, hooks, upload schedule. 30 minutes later, Claude turned the winning patterns into 40 new video ideas. AI tools made the visuals, voiceovers and captions. CapCut packaged everything into Shorts. He didn’t edit a single video manually. Started testing 20-30 uploads a day across multiple channels. Most failed, but the winners kept pulling views automatically. Month 1 - $430 from test videos. Month 3 - $2,800. Month 6 - $7,400+ every month from channels running while he sleeps. University makes you pay $100,000 to learn theory for 4 years. He spent $20, opened 4 browser windows and let YouTube data tell him what to make next.show more

19-year-old girl spent $42 and 30 minutes, then made... $9,600 from children’s videos she never appeared in. 4,100,000 views on YouTube, no camera, no face, no editor. The entire channel was built around kids content. One video uploaded in 2023 still brings in money every month with zero extra work. Dozens of videos like this, each one turning simple stories, bright visuals and voiceovers into small digital assets. $6,000+ a month from a faceless kids channel running in the background. $42 spent on tools, $9,600+ made from content she didn’t even film herself. The best children’s channel is the one that works without needing you on camera.show more

More than 6 years of mining and supporting the... project,yet no token migration. Out of 47M users, barely 10M users migrated and most of them are locked till 2027. This isn’t a delay it’s a calculated scam, masked as innovation. They sold us dreams, gave us numbers on a screen and built a closed system to trap our time and data. No transparency, no freedom, no value. Just hype, control, and excuses. Pi Network is a deception years in the making.show more
