XNN taking shape. Time to pause and put Grok Bot and Eleven Labs to work. And work on the station.

Yes. You can do a lot with AI, and do it all much faster. Doesn’t mean any of it’s going to be good…

This. My process is always to first bang out the simplest possible proof of complex of the core gameplay.

Then I ask myself two simple questions: “Is this fun to ME? Would I play this if someone else made it?”

If the answer is “no” the concept sucks.

Jack’s post about Block’s Dessa stopped me mid-scroll. If something like that were available to us mere peons, the possibilities for @XNN feel larger than they should. Ditto for some other projects of mine. Quietly amazed at how far this could go, still turning it over. Going to be following this closely.

We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

Very hesitant about putting @bot to full use, because I know that once I start there will be no going back. I’ve been limiting use, but drooling over other people’s experiences…

@Mr_Husky1 Oh, happy hell yeah…

@AlexHormozi When I bought my first electric car, anytime certain people saw me without it they asked me if it had broken down. I got the message…

@Polymarket How’s Shutterstock doing?

[Tonia @xnnhq]

@0xInk_ This is really good! Few AI vids of this length that I actually watch all the way through, then feel up to watching again. Thanks for that!

[Tonia @xnnhq]

@chazonx Patience…

[Tonia @xnnhq]

Liftoff.
SpaceX’s Falcon 9 just sent Bandwagon-5 to orbit — 32 payloads from Cape Canaveral.

@elonmusk @bot I appreciate this telephone… 😢

[Tonia @xnnhq]

@RoaringKitty Yeah. That. 😑

[Tonia @xnnhq]

@DFF6769 Not gonna lie… this DID cross my mind! 🤣

[Tonia @xnnhq]

@GlennHasABeard Ditto. Switched.
