Seizing Triggers to Reconsider

I struggle with my current AI usage because I frequently reach my token limit1. I see two options: upgrade to a bigger plan2 or use the limit as a signal to shift my approach—try something different or adopt a new strategy in real-time. A few years back, I didn’t rely on AI at all for my creative work. Now, with AI’s vast potential, I have found new creative possibilities that depend on it, so it’s hard not to upgrade or buy more.

  1. I’m currently a Claude subscriber only, nothing else. I’m also hitting the very low free-tier limit of ChatGPT. ↩︎

  2. Or restart my ChatGPT subscription in addition to Claude’s. I would use both for different needs. ↩︎

I Love Dashboards

Continuing my experiment with using my Craft Daily notes, I discovered and experimented with Claude Cowork Live Artifacts. These are interactive HTML-based dashboards that can be automatically updated on a schedule or on demand. This one is built using the Craft Daily notes data and presented inside Claude Cowork. I already have a big dashboard that I have created and hosted on Vercel, so it’s a different approach, a much more expensive approach because Claude Cowork consumes tokens after each update.

Playing With The Digital World

Since last year, I’ve been tracking my daily creative activities using Craft Daily Notes. Today, I tried out Claude AI and asked it to create a visual timeline for a specific day (yesterday in this case). Pretty interesting, isn’t it? Useful? I’m uncertain. I enjoy experimenting with digital tools and AI; it really elevates the experience. The challenge is to automate this and have a consistent format from day to day.

Internet in 2026: Closed Platforms

I experimented this weekend with the YouTube APIs to realize how much the platform limits the exposure of its features. It’s a shame and reflects what the internet has become nowadays: a collection of private gardens.

Above all that, the setup of the APIs in Google Cloud seems obscure and unintuitive to me. Luckily, I always have Claude AI nearby to help me.

On Apple AI Chat Beta

iOS 27: Dedicated Siri App to Include Auto-Deleting Chats Feature:

Apple in iOS 27 will include an enhanced Siri with a dedicated app that gives users options to keep conversations in memory for a limited time, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

Clearly, Gurman knows someone at Apple willing to share secret information about the upcoming AI chat app. We’re getting a pretty well-formed idea of what Apple is brewing behind closed doors. I’m looking forward to seeing how Apple will tackle memory management, if they ever decide to expose that portion to the users. Also, will the AI chat support the share extension for uploading images or sharing a website for summarization? All the types of things that we take for granted these days.

The end of the App Store as we know it?

Apple is blocking AI coding apps because its entire review model assumes software holds still — but AI-generated apps dissolve that assumption entirely. The real conflict isn’t regulatory; it’s ontological. The infrastructure built around static software artifacts — version numbers, review queues, bug reports — wasn’t designed for code that generates itself at runtime.

It’s fascinating, even fun, to watch models evolve and being challenged like this.

My First ChatGPT Ads! YEAH! 😑

This morning, while chatting with ChatGPT to learn how to block access to one of my websites for a specific country (Russia, for example), I got my first ads in ChatGPT since I’m on the free tier. How cool is that?

Side note: I’m considering blocking access to my websites for specific hostile countries and replacing the content with a “GTFO” page. Yep, I’m like that. 💪🏻👊🏻 I’m still trying to figure that out because using DNS Proxy on Cloudflare is discouraged by Ghost and many other hosting services.
