I just asked it to create a torque spec diagram of the suspension for my car, a subject I'm pretty familiar with. It amazingly drew everything correctly, displayed the correct torque figures and allowed me to click on individual components to zoom in further, providing more specs. Genuinely one of the most impressive demos I've tried in a long time. I was able to use it almost like a living version of a classic illus…

I have an old door on the back yard, been planning to make a bike shelter this week so I asked it to make me a plan. It drew a regular shed with an "upcycled door". But no sign of where a bike should fit into it. No bike would ever fit in that thing, and the only structure it showed how to construct didn't resemble the actual finished thing. Like every other AI demo I've tried ever, impressive on the surface, but the…

This is great, AI freeing us from bikeshedding.

Cool project, but just a side thought I was having about how do people have resources and the money to make things like this and make it avl for public, I mean it's fair to say they have their own GPUs or if they are using api keys for gpt or Gemini with enterprise subsidized inference But still coming from a frugal background I still cannot wrap my head around this

I am unfortunately just paying for this out of pocket! Didn't really expect it to blow up like this.

Thank you for this, i think it's fantastic! I've got some open source AR work i'm doing, it's given me some inspiration to build something using it!

I applaud the idea and the technological part of that, but of course, as with all AI models, it produces utter slop once you go even a tiny bit outside of the learning data.

For example, here I asked for a mechanism of converting the circular motion to wing flapping, and it has no idea what to do at all.

The core problem with using AI to learn is that if you don't know about the specific area (which you don't, that's why you are learning it), it can (and absolutely will) fake knowledge without you ever noticing it, and be utterly wrong, disseminating false info, and teaching you (or your kids) wrong world models.

It's not really a website streamed live at all... It's just asking a model to generate an image with some web searches plus its built-in (trained knowledge)

You can do this with any agentic coding model now... just ask OpenAI codex : generate me an image given this query: "the query" and you will get the same kind of outputs.

Are you running it from your own gpu(s), or paying for the gpu usage in a likely-eye-watering way? ;)

The demo on the main page suggests "Paris Travel Overview / Visiting Notre Dame", so I tried a couple of cities and places that I've actually been to.

If often identifies some of the points of interest correctly, but their spacial location relative to each other is completely insane. Like, not even close to reality.
