small dev experiment today came across Cal AI (recently... acquired by MyFitnessPal) 15M downloads, ~$30M/year tried vibecoding it myself on superapp wasn’t gonna pay for the subscription took a few prompts and I had a working v1 lowkey crazy how fast this worksshow more

Why has nobody built this $100k/mo app idea? People... pay thousands for stylists, so I built an app for it. Here’s how I would scale it👇 - Build and launch the app in a weekend (this was just a few prompts with SuperApp) - Post 10 videos about it every day until you find a viral format - Hire 5 UGC creators to post that format 1-2 times a day If you build this, tag me and I’ll share itshow more

When I think about myself building my business and... how many times: - I was on the brink of failure - I lost a lot of money - I just didn’t think I had what it took I thank myself for never quitting because it made me who I am today.show more

Cal AI might be the most viral health app... this year. 8M+ downloads, projected to do $30M revenue this year. Built by two teenagers. Everyone's using it. But nobody's talking about the fact that their AI is completely broken... To the point where users are manually correcting EVERY meal. • Bowl of grapes: 60 cal estimate (actually ~260) • 4 boiled eggs: 1,010 cal estimate (actually ~300) • Meat portions: consistently off by 50% These aren't my words, but the reviews you can see for yourself on App Store and other places. If the whole USP is saving time vs manual logging, and you still have to correct everything... what's the point? What Cal AI did get right: Distribution. • Viral TikTok content • Smart influencer partnerships • 8M downloads in under a year They absolutely crushed GTM. But the product doesn't work lol. The gap between the "90% accuracy" claim vs the actual user experience kills trust. And in health apps, trust is everything. This is the problem with AI apps across the board right now. Everyone's racing to ship fast and go viral. Nobody's asking: "Does this actually solve the problem?" Distribution > product quality is a losing game. As a result, you're bound to encounter problems: 1. Training data doesn't match real-world variety 2. No depth sensing for portion size 3. Poor training data on homemade meals 4. Zero context (is that chicken grilled or fried?) You only get fast & inaccurate answers. This is why, when I started building my own recipe app, I looked at Cal and other AI nutrition apps and noticed that being accurate was the biggest factor. Here's how we're building Nonna differently: ✓ Multi-model AI (different models for different foods) ✓ User feedback loop to improve estimates ✓ Manual override that actually trains the system ✓ Ship when it works, not when it's "good enough" If the AI can't nail it, we're not shipping it. But accuracy alone is boring. So we're also adding some additional features that make you want to use it daily: • Fridge Story: shareable infographic of your fridge contents • Mystery Ingredient: weekly cooking challenges • Cuisine Spin: random inspiration when you're stuck • Expectation vs Reality: before/after photo collages Tl;dr: Distribution gets downloads. Product keeps users. Cal got millions of downloads. How many people still use it daily after manually correcting every meal for a week? Viral marketing with a broken product = expensive way to disappoint people.show more

My uber picked me up in a Tesla and... fell asleep on the highway. I’ve driven with FSD and trust how well it works so I wasn’t worried. It took the exit and drove me to my destination all by itself. He was asleep for 90% of the 20 minute drive hahashow more

Secretary Lutnick on President Trump's historic Cabinet: "A year... ago today, I was working on the transition with President Trump to build the greatest Cabinet ever for the greatest President ever. And as I sit here today, I can’t be more proud of how you did it, sir. You’ve created the greatest Cabinet. It is a joy to be at this table." 🇺🇸show more

I didn’t expect AI to make ad creation this... fast. Just tested Pollo AI Marketing Studio to see what it can do. Tried making a sports streaming app ad from a single product image. No editing. No timeline. No production setup. Just picked a video format and it generated a full video ad in seconds. What stood out wasn’t just the output,, it was how simple the whole process is now. What used to take multiple steps and tools can now be done in a single workflow. Curious how others see this, would you use something like this for ads?show more

A 22-year-old guy from Japan created an AI ladyboy... as a joke, and you won't believe this, 468 men paid to watch it To create the look, he used Claude The idea came to him spontaneously for fun. He wrote a prompt, Claude generated the first video, and the guy posted it on TikTok Within 25 hours, the video hit 140,000 views, and he realized people were interested, so he kept posting A week later, he already had 12,500 followers and 3.2 million views. But he didn't stop there; he created an account on Fanvue with a paid subscription 9 days later, 468 men had signed up for the paid subscription Subscription price: $5.99 Revenue: $2,803 Out-of-the-box thinking and AI are all you needshow more

Crazy how today marks a year since I previewed... the snippet. (wish I never did lol) song was everywhere, demo version got leaked, December sure anthem, DJ 808 was ready to put everything on the record but they still didn’t clear for release. Guys be saying i fumbled but I really tried mehn, and for a record that’s not mine, I did my best to put it out there🙏🏿show more

The first video only lived on Team Liquid IG... stories for the day, so I wanted to post it here to give it a permanent home. What started as simple flat renders turned into a small animations experiment. I used a basic rig and filmed myself as reference (because that’s what animators actually do, reference is everything), and just went for it. The funny part is, once I took that risk, the creative ideas started flowing. Pushing past the safe option is what made this feel more alive and if I hadn’t tried, this videos would never have existed. It’s simple, but I’m genuinely proud of how it turned out, especially since this is far outside my comfort zone. Sometimes the best growth comes from just trying. If you play VALORANT, check out the new TL Classic skin, it looks gorgeous and it supports the team at the same time 💙🤍 2D graphics by the great Staceyshow more

133 years of our family planting a grain crop... on the home 80. But this will be the first year it will start getting surrounded by solar farms. Families, friends, and neighbors have all came together to start feeding the Omaha, Nebraska power district’s green energy pledge. Love it or hate it I wouldn’t think the folks from year one would mind us keeping things productive. It’s Just a few more ways this ground is working for the next generation. 🇺🇸 🤟🏻🌽 #plant26show more

This is just one of the parts of my... secret sauce that makes up ⚡️ Hyper Realism on Photo AI and Interior AI Really high definition crispy details at up to 24 megapixels and very fast too and the most detailed upscaler out there now Kinda obvious but just going super high in resolution solves most of the problems of AI photos because every tiny detail (like a tiny hair on a skin) becomes a 640x480 block that can be generated by AI much more accurately than trying to do it as a few pixels It's made by my old AI dev philz1337x and for everyone to use at clarityai .co, I'm not affiliated but he's my friend and I use it!show more

🤔 “WE NEED YOU HOME” - Annie “The Poet”... Guthrie chose that moment to plead for her mother’s return in Poetry? I HAVE SEEN THIS MOVIE BEFORE. I’m fairly sure I know how it ends. Only a few people would be aware The Ring Cam didn’t have a subscription. Let me explain how that works. If there is no subscription it won’t automatically upload to the cloud. If you have a subscription it will upload to the cloud BUT if you have access to the account you can delete it permanently instantly from the cloud. I hope I’m wrong on this but more importantly I hope Nancy Guthrie is ok. President Trump seems to indicate prior on AF1 that a resolution may be close..I have a feeling given our technology in 2026..we will know by tomorrow what transpired.show more

Before I was a wuwa cc, I used to... create all sorts of coffee and tea videos, and I had aspirations of becoming a barista/specialty coffee cc. I was thrilled when I saw the 3.1 event have a mixology minigame. It took many weeks of planning and sourcing for this, hope you enjoy my little passion project! I really got to combine the things I love with this video. I've been working on this since 6AM today, so 20+ hours today to produce the whole video.show more

Saw this today and it honestly broke me a... little. This man was sitting on the curb with a small food container, clearly not much. Right next to him was his dog, wrapped in a little blanket, lying on a makeshift bed. The guy opens his meal, takes a few bites… and then without even thinking twice, he feeds his dog from the same box. You could tell it wasn’t just “a pet.” That dog was family. They looked at each other with that kind of trust that you can’t fake. It’s crazy how people with the least often give the most. No phone out for attention, no crowd watching, just a quiet moment between two souls surviving together. I don’t know their story, but I know love when I see it. And this right here, this is love.show more

Free ClawdBot is printing money on Polymarket The script... made about $460,000 - pretty crazy result It auto-trades BTC and ETH, focusing on 15-minute up and down moves and catching small delays and inefficiencies on centralized exchanges. No insider tools Just a smart automated script Profile: Copytrade: How it works Short-term moves The bot focuses on very short time frames - mostly 15-minute price direction on major coins. This is not long-term investing, it’s fast micro-trading. Exchange inefficiencies It watches centralized exchanges for tiny price gaps or delays and reacts instantly when an opportunity appears. Scale and frequency 500+ trades per week. Each trade aims for a very small profit, but over time those small gains add up and compound. The surprising part Most of the logic was created by prompting AI to generate the code - no developer degree needed. Bottom line High frequency Small edges Strong compounding Automation over emotionshow more

What does all this mean for culture? If you... are watching my AI Influencer list here on X you'll see a ton of people posting various videos generated by AI, like this one that Justine posted last week, done with Kling AI Tonight I had some fun. My wife shot a video of me crawling on the floor being a goofball. Kling turned me into an evil 1X robot in a few minutes. Ahh, the kids and I are gonna have some fun with this one!

so, i might have been wrong.... i've been looking... into AI UGC a little bit more and it's actually kind of insane the video you see below took $2 to make and the only visible problem (might) be the audio i know ecom brands using ai ugc for there organic and paid doing over $1M/mo i'm still bullish on real human clipping and ai content but considering how much ai ugc has improved over the last few months... it's going to be interesting to see how the content marketing world changes this yearshow more

Since many of you asked yesterday: Unkey paid us... $90k for this rebrand and design. If you think that’s a lot, it really isn’t once you see how much was delivered. Good branding is not just a logo and a few gradients - it’s a huge system built to help a brand evolve across materials without relying on the same visual trick over and over. That’s exactly the kind of system we build for companies. And while today you’ll probably see another round of scary posts about design being eaten by GPT Image 2.0, remember: there are still companies willing to pay a lot for branding done by humans with taste. Those humans may use AI. AI may help speed things up. But it’s still just a tool - and like any tool, you need to learn how to use it.show more
