[Augmented Presence @augmentedtraff]

Built an agent (with Gemini 3) to scale:

🧠 Reads my Leadership writings
🚫 Tracks history (zero repeats)
📝 Scripts (OpenAI)
🗣️ Voices (11labs)
🚀 Auto-publishes Mon/Thu

Zero intervention. 100% from my writings/voice.

Augmented or Artificial?

PaperColor from @M5Stack is an ideal ambient AI display that automatically paints the local news every hour.

A colour e-ink surface that quietly notices what changed, regenerates an image, and leaves it there.

Impressed by the new @M5Stack m5paper color

3 HW buttons are quick to trigger

2 RGB lights for real-time status

Killer feature: the high quality speaker/mic - ideal for a voice device to @OpenClawAI

[Augmented Presence @augmentedtraff]

Inspired by @basti_vkl, I built my own AI device using a Pi Zero2W + WhisPlay + PiSugar Battery - tailored to my personal workflows around @openclaw.

Mic + speaker works great.

In an AI-First world, intelligence is the product.
