Since Opus 4.8 is out and more and more designers are getting into Design Engineering, I thought I’d share some of the interaction patterns I use most often:
Use proximity, not just hover. When the cursor gets close, nearby elements can subtly scale and darken based on distance.
It makes interfaces feel more responsive, less binary, and way more alive
onpointermove = e =>
document.querySelectorAll(".dock>*").forEach(el => {
const r = el.getBoundingClientRect();
const t = Math.max(0, 1 - Math.abs(e.clientX - r.x - r.width/2) / 120);
el. style.scale = 1 + t * .5;
});
me: i want to make a cartoon
2023: takes 6 months, costs $80k
2024: takes 3 weeks, learn 4 tools, pray
2026: open Claude, type story, Higgsfield MCP handles the rest, done before dinner🤯
Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.
I’ve left Google DeepMind after an amazing chapter.
I’m incredibly grateful for the people I worked with, the things we built, and the lessons I learned from taking frontier AI research into production. DeepMind shaped how I think about research, product, evaluation, and what it takes to build AI systems at real scale.
As I wrap up this chapter, I wrote down something I’ve been thinking about a lot: evals.
We’re good at evaluating the models we have. We’re much worse at evaluating the models we’re about to build — especially if they cross into a new capability regime. We will have self-evolving models, but before that, we need self-evolving evaluations.

You've been asking for this one...
Now in preview: Codex in the ChatGPT mobile app.
Start new work, review outputs, steer execution, and approve next steps, all from the ChatGPT mobile app. Codex will keep running on your laptop, Mac mini, or devbox.
I’ve always believed the No.1 application of AI should be to improve human health.
That work started with AlphaFold, and now at @IsomorphicLabs with the mission to reimagine drug discovery and one day solve all disease!
We are turbocharging that goal with $2.1B in new funding.
What if anatomy explorers felt alive?
This 3D dog, including the skeleton, organs and rig, was generated with ai and reacts to the cursor in real time with head tracking and tail movement.
- Used GPT Images 2 for consistency
- @omma_ai for 3D generation and code using @threejs
Lmk if you’d like to try it!
Ever wondered what the real women behind ancient Greek statues looked like?
I brought them back to life using:
- Depth Anything (depth maps)
- @omma_ai (Code and 3D implementation)
- Three.js
We’re reimagining a 50-year-old interface - the mouse pointer - with AI. 🖱️
These experimental demos show how people can intuitively direct Gemini on their screens using motion, speech, and natural shorthand to get things done 🧵
Gaussian splat videos are getting really good.
The detail here, especially in the fabric and hair, is seriously impressive. Well done @gracia_vr Thanks for letting me check out the TestFlight on Apple Vision Pro.
