The backend APIs served everything: RTMP ingest URLs and stream keys for every live World Cup 2026 camera feed across all five angles. Confirmed live in VLC.

I'd wish we come to a day where people would just post the prompt. Then I can decide what story to generate from it.

I'm still planning to add a "AI-edited version" toggle to my blog. Not that it would do anything, because people wouldn't click it anyway.

Please stop using AI to write for you, it ruins what is otherwise a fascinating story, and on reflection I struggle to trust it. If you used AI to generate the blog post, did you use AI to generate the screenshots and story?

I don't mind it here at all, in fact I didn't even notice it's AI before reading this comment. It's clearly not a one-shot AI slop but a well thought out and edited by a human post.

Not everyone who has something interesting to say is a good writer, and I think it's great if AI can help them tell their stories.
