The ability to ship an app with some creative ideas and Claude Code is truly remarkable. Here's my story... #claude #code #fable #AI

You did what countless people said was impossible, and you did it time and time again.   Today is your day. You deserve this. May it be a glorious one.

This video is truly incredible. I made it in less than FIVE minutes from an image and a very short prompt. Basically @teedubya made a song to go with the latest episode of Bad Crypto (badco.in/810). I took the song, popped it into @revid_ai and voila. And yeah, the song is catchy, too. Turn it up! #claude #RevidAI #Fable

My mind is BLOWN! 🤯I just made this video with @revid_ai in less than 5 minutes. I gave it a song, a short prompt and style and turned it loose. This was all based on a song we created with @suno for episode #810 of @badcryptopod #claude #fable #anthrophic #AIVideo

I bought my first computer in 1980. With the power of AI, I was able to tell the story. Let me know what you think! #trs80 #vintage #computers

I just made a speaker reel for under $100. In the past this would have cost me well over $5000 and taken weeks to complete. I did it in 3 days. youtube.com/watch?v=j7IwFZgo… #AIKeynoteSpeaker #KeynoteSpeaker #ArtificialIntelligence

Last month in Hong Kong, Erin and I went to catch the hydrofoil to Macau. I'd asked AI for directions, and it told me which ferry port to go to. Sounded completely sure of itself. I bought tickets. We showed up an hour early, feeling relaxed. Until the people there told us we were at the wrong port. I checked the tickets on my phone — they said something different than the AI had. We threw ourselves into a taxi, rode twelve white-knuckle minutes across town, and made the boat with ten minutes to spare. Here's the lesson: the AI didn't lie on purpose. It doesn't have purposes. It gave me a confident, well-organized, completely wrong answer — because confidence is what these tools do, whether or not they're right. There's a word for this: "hallucination." It used to show up as goofy images — people with six fingers. Now it hides inside helpful-sounding directions, summaries, and facts. And it happens more than the companies admit. Should you be afraid of AI? Not at all. Just use it like a brilliant, fast assistant who occasionally gets things wrong: gratefully, and with your eyes open. The whole discipline fits on a napkin: Let AI do the heavy lifting — drafting, summarizing, organizing, the first pass. That's where it shines. But when something actually matters (a date, an address, a dollar figure, a medical detail, the ferry port), check it yourself. Ten seconds beats an hour of panic. That's the rule. AI gives you answers. You keep the judgment.

It was 2006. Met David Hancock at the Big Seminar and pitched him a book idea called The AdSense Code. He liked it. As we shook hands I told him, "I'll be your first New York Times bestseller." He laughed. I was not joking. We designed the cover to look like The DaVinci Code. My eyes peering out from the cover in that same cryptic font. We timed the launch to the week the DaVinci Code movie premiered, so book search traffic would spike. I lined up a massive bonus campaign with fifty marketer friends. It was a coordinated push that led to massive sales. It hit the New York Times list. I actually found out before David and called him to let him know. I declared the outcome out loud, worked backward from it, and most of the time the people around you will rise to meet what you said you were going to do. What did you declare out loud and then make happen?

December 2008. I launched an iPhone app that made fart noises. Some said it was career suicide. My wife rolled her eyes. Reporters literally laughed at me on the phone. Twelve days later iFart was the #1 paid app in the App Store. It stayed there. The BBC called at 2am asking for a quote. A competitor's company sent a cease-and-desist demanding I rename it. Apple's app review team started using us as their example of "what we did not expect." Month one revenue: $200,000. Headlines around the world. The lesson wasn't "make stupid stuff." The lesson was that the gatekeepers are guessing too. This was the victory pose that day in 2008. That app is STILL ranking in the entertainment category today. What's the dumbest idea you've ever had that actually worked? #iFart #appstore

Today marks my 19th year on Twitter. Dang.
