SOMEONE VIBE CODED A CHROME EXTENSION THAT DISGUISES CLAUDE AS A GOOGLE DOC SO YOU CAN USE AI IN PUBLIC it wraps ai in a fake google docs interface, so on your screen it just looks like youre typing a document, not prompting a chatbot what it does: > works with chatgpt and claude > you just type your question like a normal line in a doc and the answer comes back right there on the page > microsoft word and notion style themes too, so you can pick your disguise > rebuilt to properly support multiple ai models behind the doc > the google docs look is the default its a chrome extension called gptdisguise this is genius. a lot of people are embarrassed to be seen using ai in public (school, work, etc). someone just built the fix.

THIS GUY ASKED FABLE TO MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE AI RIGHT BEFORE IT GOT TAKEN DOWN the prompt: "you can you use whatever resources you like, and python, to render a short video. can you put a more personal spin on it? it should be about what it's like to be you." that was it. just python and ffmpeg and a question about its own existence. 12 minutes later, around 90,000 tokens, it produced a finished video. coherent and edited, with its own take > it wrote the code, generated the visuals, and rendered the final cut on its own > no dedicated video model in the loop, just a language model reaching for python and ffmpeg > the result is competent enough that people genuinely got emotional watching it and then fable got pulled. this video is one of the last things it made before it went dark a model asked what it's like to be itself, answered in a video, and then disappeared. this sounds so sad

SOMEONE USED FABLE 5 TO BUILD A FULL NATIVE MINECRAFT CLONE ON MAC, RIGHT BEFORE THE MODEL GOT BANNED its called pebble, a complete block survival game written in swift and metal, running natively on macos. the clip is real unedited gameplay (he died to a pack of llamas) > around 45,000 lines of swift across 82 files, zero external dependencies, no game engine > a hand written renderer with god rays, soft shadows and ambient occlusion > every sound and all music synthesized live from oscillators, there are zero audio files in the whole project > 879 blocks, 1,188 items, 63 biomes, 100 entity types with pathfinding, three dimensions, redstone, enchanting, villages, raids, bosses > 200 fps maxed out on a macbook air, he hit 500 on an m5 its open source and mit licensed, an original recreation built from observable behavior, no mojang code or assets

POV: sam and openai after hearing the news about fable 5

THIS GUY IS USING FABLE TO MASH TWO GAME GENRES INTO ONE tetris as a racing game. you drive a grid shape down an endless track, every enemy car is a tetris piece, and when you bump into them they snap onto your shape. fill a line and it clears tetris style, buying you more time to hit the next checkpoint > the world regenerates after every gate. sunny valley, then rainy city, themes combining forever > bump pieces from the front or the side to build your shape > clear lines to shrink back down, hold forward to make pieces come faster if youre feeling brave > minimal text, all effects, runs right in the browser the guy didn't use an engine and has no game dev background. he just described the whole game in plain english, then put claude onto auto mode until the game was actually fun to play we used to need a studio to prototype a brand new genre and it would have come out in 3 years, and now its a conversation and an afternoon.

SOMEONE VIBE CODED A TERMINAL APP THAT RIPS YOUR SPOTIFY, YOUTUBE AND SOUNDCLOUD PLAYLISTS INTO REAL FILES YOU OWN it pulls everything down as real files and plays it all back offline its called soundcli and the entire thing is one command. npx and its running. no login, no account, no subscription needed. how it works: > point it at a playlist, an album, an artist, or just your liked songs and walk away > downloads in original quality with album art and artist info baked in > auto sorts everything into clean folders on your own drive > plays it all back offline from a keyboard driven terminal dashboard > nothing leaves your computer except the request to grab the track you can even leave it running in a terminal pane next to your code, music going all day, no browser tab, no bloated app eating memory spotify's files are locked down, so it just finds each song's youtube match and grabs that instead you still get your real playlists, just as files you actually own

SOMEONE GAVE CLAUDE CODE A "LAZY SENIOR DEV" MODE AND IT STARTED WRITING 6X LESS CODE ai agents love to over deliver. you ask for a simple button and the ai writes 200 lines, half of which break something else so this guy built a skill called ponytail. it channels that one senior dev everyone knows (long ponytail, oval glasses, seen it all). he says nothing, writes one line, it works before it writes anything it walks a little ladder: > does this even need to exist > does the standard library already do it > is there a native feature or existing dependency > can it just be one line > only then does it write code, and only the bare minimum against a normal agent on 5 tasks: 4x faster, 16% fewer tokens, and 293 lines of code dropped to 47. one task where the normal agent built a 190 line dashboard with animations nobody asked for, ponytail shipped 13 lines. the 246 lines nobody wrote have never caused an incident we spent all this effort making ai write more code and turns out the "senior move" is making it write less

SOMEONE TURNED A SMART LAMP INTO A LIVE CLAUDE USAGE METER instead of refreshing to check how much of your usage window is left, the lamp just tells you a background script hooks into claude code and pushes the status to the light over bluetooth > blue spinning glow when claude is working > turns pink when its waiting on you > warm white when nothing is running > and the lighting bar becomes a literal progress bar of your 5 hour usage limit so you glance up, see the bar half empty, and know how much usage is left at a glance they tried it on fable 5 and the bar started dropping like a countdown timer lol they watched 6% vanish on one simple task ambient computing for your ai usage is such a clean idea

SOMEONE VIBE CODED A HOME MAINTENANCE APP THAT TELLS YOU WHAT TO FIX FIRST most to do lists just dump every chore on you gutters, filters, that loose step, the silicone, the garden, etc. then they leave you staring at the pile with no idea where to start its called homequeue and the whole thing is built around "what do i actually tackle first" > ranks every job by effort, cost and importance, then tells you what's worth doing now > the whole household shares one home list instead of nagging each other > assign jobs to the right person and it reminds them, not you > shared calendar and recurring maintenance so nothing gets missed > on web and ios and they just hit 2500 users in two months with zero marketing budget just by solving a boring problem EVERY homeowner actually has

SOMEONE TURNED THE STOCK MARKET INTO A MOTOCROSS GAME WHERE YOU "RIDE THE CHARTS" motocross is dirt bike racing over bumpy hilly tracks full of jumps and drops real stock charts become the track and you ride a bike along the actual price line your portfolio crashes, the bike accelerates. green days are an uphill grind, red days are a downhill race. its called stonkrider and the idea is so simple its perfect: > pick a stock and the chart becomes a motocross track you ride > some stocks are basically just one long uphill climb > a market crash turns into the most fun downhill run of your life > theres a minimap in the corner so you can see the carnage coming its line rider meets wall street bets, and wsb is already trying to use it as a price predictor as a joke and the best part is he vibe coded the whole thing with claude code in a weekend, insane what you can do now

FABLE 5 DROPPED AND IMMEDIATELY BEAT POKEMON FIRERED START TO FINISH USING NOTHING it cleared the whole game in 50 minutes of in game time no minimap, coordinates, memory hacks or external tools just raw screenshots of the game (the same thing anyone staring at the screen sees) why this shows how far ai models have come: > older models needed a custom harness built around them to even attempt this > fable 5 did the entire game end to end on day one > pure vision plus long horizon reasoning, holding a plan across hours of gameplay > people are pointing out it finished faster than a casual human playthrough a model that can see a screen and play it for hours is a model that can use any software a human can

FABLE 5 ONE SHOT A CALL OF DUTY ZOMBIES CLONE FROM A SINGLE LAZY PROMPT no plan mode and no back and forth with claude just one prompt, and it built a playable fps with three.js the exact prompt: "make me a cod zombies clone, single player, and make the shooting feel good" what came back: > a working first person shooter in the browser > movement and gunplay that feels good to play > barely any bugs, most features just worked first try > built on three.js with zero engine, zero assets the gap between an idea and the actual thing is gone, and vibe coding a whole game is a one sentence problem

fable 5 is officially the first model ever to finally pass the "should i walk or drive to the car wash" test worth every token

POV you are starting to crack distribution with AI agents on every channel imaginable and you wake up to this: > a few reddit posts your agent dropped overnight. hundreds of thousands of views > 15 cold emails replied to while you slept (3 calls already booked) > 40 warm leads flagged (all complaining about the exact thing you fix) > tiktok and instagram running on autopilot. 2 slideshows hit 100k views in total > a dm from a famous founder asking how you're everywhere at once > articles dropping daily that pull in users from seo like crazy distribution used to be the grind that killed good products now its just something you turn on

SOMEONE BUILT A SKILL THAT LETS CLAUDE TEST ITS OWN CODE IN A REAL BROWSER AND SCREEN RECORD ITSELF WHILE IT DOES claude writes the change, says "done," and you have no idea if it actually works until you click around yourself. that isn't an issue anymore its called canary. instead of claude guessing, it opens a real browser and checks: > screen recordings of the change actually running > console logs so it catches the errors it cant see otherwise > network requests (HARs) to confirm calls go through > full playwright traces of every step so claude stops saying "this should work" and starts proving it does, and it closes the loop between writing code and knowing the code is right the build, test, fix cycle used to need a human in the middle, and now this hands that whole loop to claude

POV you become rich after: > picking one of the 25 boring niches nobody wants to touch > vibe coding a b2b startup with claude code in a weekend > dming 20 people who left 1 star reviews on competitors across trustpilot, g2 and capterra > closing one enterprise client on a $5000/month subscription > realizing you only need 2 clients to hit 5 figures a month THIS is the move right now

THIS GUY BUILT A TOOL TO HIDE PRIVATE WINDOWS DURING SCREEN SHARES AND HIS MANAGER SAID IT DESTROYS WORKPLACE TRANSPARENCY a manager openly admitting the point of a screen share was to watch everything on your screen, not just the thing youre presenting the tool itself is clean though when you share your screen it hides the windows you mark private. your slack dms, your salary tab, your job hunt, whatever. only the stuff you choose to show shows up real use cases people have used this for: > compliance calls where you have to share the full screen but not your peripheral > ultrawide setups where sharing everything means sharing literally everything > client demos where you dont want random tabs leaking > basic privacy from a micromanaging boss this should be built into every screen share by default
