Someone got a massive AI model running on an iPhone 17 Pro, which topped Hacker News today. Claude Code had its moment with a cheat sheet and productivity guide both hitting the front page. A developer built a working AI receptionist for their brother's mechanic shop. Best quote of the day from Neurotica via Simon Willison: slop is something that takes more human effort to consume than it took to produce.
