jimmis··on How accurate have Ed Zitron's AI skeptic predictions been?
To be fair, Zitron's career is as a commentator. To some extent, I expect CEOs of companies to make ridiculous claims. At the end of the day, when shareholders come knocking, what they care about is whether or not your company is growing.

No such mechanism for social media personalities. You can be wrong 90% of the time, and your audience will still praise you for the 10% of the time you were right.

jimmis··on Show HN: AI agents run my one-person company on Gemini's free tier – $0/month
I thought so too... but if you refresh the page, it's just a pre-baked animation. A fun idea for somebody though; a little aquarium full of bots doing fake office tasks (I'm sure it's been done already).

Isn't that just the state of every ai-related subreddit at this point?
jimmis··on Launch HN: Cardboard (YC W26) – Agentic video editor
Excited to see AI integrations into more non-text-related applications (coding, spreadsheets, proofreading etc). As someone who only occasionally needs to edit videos for product / feature reels, I'd happily ask an AI to "sync the narration to the video, cut away irrelevant footage, and add transitions". The convenience of being able to automate simple, repeatable tasks in creative software via ai is something that gets overshadowed a lot by the agentic coding discussions. I can only imagine the nightmare it would be for a tool like Premier to integrate effective ai features, so new ai-in-mind tools really feel like a necessity.

Great website and good luck!

I'm sure the Trump supporters who voted for him to "end all wars" are going to be strongly opposed to this.
jimmis··on LL3M: Large Language 3D Modelers
As a designer/dev working on AI for customer service tools, who has to constantly reminding stakeholders that LLMs aren't creative, aren't good at steering conversations, etc. I wish there was more focus on integrating AI into tools in ways that make work faster, rather than trying to do-it-all. There's still so much low-hanging fruit out there.

Other than the obvious (IDEs), wish there were more tools like Fusion360's ai auto-constraints. Saves so much time on something that is mostly tedious and uncreative. I could see similar integrations for Blender (honestly the most interesting part of what op posted is changing the materials... could save a lot of time spent connecting noodles).

jimmis··on GPT-5
4 years ago people were amazed when you could get GPT-3 to make 4-chan greentexts. Now people are unimpressed when GPT-5 codes a working language learning app from scratch in 2 minutes.
