Could finally try @AnthropicAI computer use via @Replit thanks @amasad for the template !

Here I am running a user test on a prototype ( also made with Replit ) to see if it can behave as a user and provide feedback.

Pretty crazy.

The wife and our two toddlers stuck for 4 hours at @heathrow due to @airfrance delay and zero communication from them. No food or drink vouchers or discussion of compensation, both of which are required by law. C'mon @AirFranceUK you can do better than this.

"AI can't do anything. It just writes emails."

You're using it wrong. The majority of AI users* are stuck at step 2 in my ladder of AI-First Productivity below.

Master your stage. Then graduate up.

I've always had terrible jet lag especially when flying East long haul and I'm quite amazed that on this trip to Kuala Lumpur I've managed to have zero #jetlag because I've discovered a new tool that can help.
