I'm so excited to share the art / code project I've been working on but don't necessarily know how to break the seal on social media. Any recs for doing so? For one I'm worried about sharing too early and having the idea escape me into the world before its... mature?

This strange piece of writing came out of fooling with Wordcraft. I really like it. Wordcraft is a (perhaps slightly broken right now) AI experiment that Google was working on a short time ago.
This experiment in AI writing is really fun to use right now, partly because its AI model seems to be... not very good at doing what it's told? Seems like a bug but I like it. github.com/PAIR-code/word…
I begrudgingly came to twitter to post something long thinking that this is one actually useful feature (I've been spending most of my time on @bluesky). But it turns out you have to pay to post longform posts now, so... nevermind

This article is bonkers. They are building a system that can do science at an astonishingly high level. It can manipulate lab equipment, synthesize chemicals, and see the results of its experiments. At 4am it's making me buzz with ideas. arstechnica.com/science/2023/1…
