Building @luaudotco. Turning "let's get together soon" into "see you Saturday." AI handles the invites, RSVPs and reminders. Bootstrapped in Birmingham.

I didn't expect Luau to help a Scout group raise over $11,000 on a fish fry.
They coordinated more than 64 hours of volunteer time, pulled off their biggest day ever, and then sent me this email. 🧵

My favorite use of Claude in my personal life has to be genealogical research. I don't care that it is discrediting the claim that William Wallace is my 22nd great grandfather.
This might be the one place where human bias is the slop, and AI is cutting right through it.

Things keep getting bigger for @luaudotco. An even better stat:
our RSVP rate is still holding steady at ~55%.
Halloween parties are def helping. Seeing a lot of people using our signup board feature for Thanksgiving meals too.

One day we'll laugh that we squabbled over whether the term should be AI or SI. Our ultra intelligence (UI) will laugh too, distracted from the OI quietly supplanting it.

What has surprised me is how our mission has extended to entire communities.
A group of people rallied around a cause, gave their time, raised money, and made something happen together. And with our signup board, we got to play a small part in it.
That's pretty special.

If you’re naming your company’s AI agent Kai just because it ends in ai, stop it! Kai belongs to Luau.

How come nobody is going "weird alien child" with their AI avatars? Dot? Muse?
OpenAI wanted ScarJo's voice, but left out this little @spikejnze masterpiece?

I asked AI to design the book cover of a non-fiction book it would imagine me to be the author of, and I have to say...
I'm pretty offended.

If the hallmark of a strong relationship is finishing each other’s sentences, AI companionship was inevitable.
Little known fact: the LL in LLM stands for Love Language. True story.
🚨 Hot take: Apple's new iPhone Duo will accelerate the use of AI coding tools/models like Claude, Cursor and OpenAI's new GPT-6 Astra.
Not only that, I think it drives more Swift app development (bye bye Ionic, Flutter, even React Native).
The new phone shifts and rearranges UI across 3 screens in 5 different viewing modes. Menus go from horizontal to vertical, shifting and adapting to each mode change.
Developers used to only have to contend with landscape or portrait, and could get away with being portrait only (rotate your phone back now please).
Now you get to add Closed (portrait, maybe landscape too?), Open Dual (landscape / portrait), Seated and Standing modes.
All those variations create more work; we'll need AI to pick up the slack.
Lucky for us, dark mode is still optional.

Microsoft Teams needs a feature where it detects that I'm coughing not talking and doesn't try to remind me that I'm muted whenever I'm hacking.
