I built a cozy game to learn Japanese kanji 🍁

You sail a little boat around an autumn lake and collect glowing kanji floating over the things they mean. Mountain, temple, lake, leaves.

I made it with Claude Opus 5.5
It cost me $6 to bring this idea to life.

Play it here👇

The list highlights 20 companies and projects making a dent in the agentic AI world.

How do we embrace AI in the classroom while keeping ethics and creativity front and center?

I’ll be tackling this at #LITES26 on October 23 at the Huntington Hilton in Melville, NY with my session: "Artificial Intelligence: Moving Forward Creatively and Ethically in Education"

[ABC News @ABC]

NEW: Artificial intelligence firm Anthropic said in a new warning that small AI models may be months away from being capable enough to self-replicate on devices such as smart ‌ovens and off-brand Android TV boxes.
