I’m exploring AI through real-world tasks, not just hype demos. I’ll test tools, share practical use cases, and be honest about where they fall short.

Made a tiny ocean for a plush otter to surf in 🌊

Jelly waves, swaying palms, and a little lighthouse that lights up after sunset.

I may have spent more time watching it than building it.

[shmopix @shmopixbzn]

Looks promising. I’m curious what it’ll do with my very badly worded questions.

GPT-6 and Intelligent UI, now rolling out in ChatGPT for everyone.

Intelligent UI in ChatGPT delivers fast, interactive answers that make everyday questions more visual, complex topics easier to grasp, and interactive tools for your task available on the spot.

@chetanankola @OpenAI @OpenAIDevs @threejs @threejsconf @AnthropicAI @ClaudeDevs @Blender @BlenderStudio_ @IndieGameJoe This looks insane 🔥

I’m building Archipelago, a tiny world for AI coding agents.

Projects are islands. Tasks become structures. Dependencies become flight paths.
See what’s running, what’s blocked, and where you’re needed.

An early prototype of a calmer way to follow the work.

Nah guys, whoever is claiming Haiku is better than Sol or Sonnet, you definitely need to rest

asked the new Claude lineup to build an AWP Dragon Lore in three.js

one sub. three models. exact same prompt

Haiku is definitely NOT made for visual tasks xd

[shmopix @shmopixbzn]

@maxt3chno Haiku really said "it's the thought that counts" and generated three cubes and a prayer 💀

I worked with GPT Astra to bring this squishy little tiger to life. 🐯🫧
Hold to inflate, let go to wobble… or keep going for a jelly explosion.
A fun experiment in turning a playful idea into an interactive 3D animation.

@N1njaCodex the udder has officially taken over the entire operation

[NinjaCodex @N1njaCodex]

WAIT… are those supposed to be legs?! 😭🐐

Asked Claude Opus 5.5 for a goat. Got an alpine milk delivery system that uses its own udder as landing gear. $9.75 well spent

It’s hopping between cliffs with the confidence of an animal whose anatomy has never been questioned. Meanwhile, I’m watching this thing bounce across a mountain and wondering when the physics department stopped answering emails

[shmopix @shmopixbzn]

@vib3coded Yeah, that's for sure.

[Vib3Coded @vib3coded]

Astra’s whale was cute until it opened its mouth 🐳

Claude Opus 5.5 vs GPT-6 Astra - same prompt, two plush whales

Opus: $11.40
Astra: $8.66

Opus made a cute little plush whale. Astra made a goofy sea creature, and when it opens its mouth, it gets even funnier

Which one would you adopt?

[shmopix @shmopixbzn]

Paid $1,300 to have a game made. It has everything: bugs, questionable graphics, and a financially traumatized investor.
The only thing missing is quality. Apparently, that’s paid DLC.

@N1njaCodex Wow, what the hell?😂

[NinjaCodex @N1njaCodex]

What the f*ck is this eight-legged bacon 😭

I told Opus 5.5 to make a pig that runs. This is what it gave me for $9.50

It runs on eight f*cking teats. Like a spider made of ham. Then it jumps a fence, faceplants, and gets back up like this is a normal day on the farm

[shmopix @shmopixbzn]

@vib3coded GPT-6 Astra is definitely having some issues with that prompt. Maybe it's a glitch in the matrix🤔

[Vib3Coded @vib3coded]

Astra, what the hell is this shark? 😭🦈

Claude Opus 5.5 vs GPT-6 Astra - same prompt, two very different sharks

Astra made a hilarious little nightmare. Opus wins for me - it actually looks like a shark

Opus: $10.35
Astra: $8.38

Saved $1.97 and got a shark that needs an exorcism 💀

Which one wins for you?
