I applaud the idea and the technological part of that, but of course, as with all AI models, it produces utter slop once you go even a tiny bit outside of the learning data.

For example, here I asked for a mechanism of converting the circular motion to wing flapping, and it has no idea what to do at all.

The core problem with using AI to learn is that if you don't know about the specific area (which you don't, that's why you are learning it), it can (and absolutely will) fake knowledge without you ever noticing it, and be utterly wrong, disseminating false info, and teaching you (or your kids) wrong world models.

It's pretty cool. I created a beautiful isometric illustration of home garden, which is worthy of being featured in a real book or magazine. I really like the isometric view to explain things, and the color palette is consistent and pleasant.

Very cool project ! I fear this might have a pretty high hallucination potential (with current models) the deeper you dig into the base image/context and clicking on potentially unrelated elements in the image. Nevertheless, love the idea.

I like the visual style it produces, great for educational material. What is it called?

Couldn't get it to load (probably getting hammered right now) but the concept is interesting. Feels like one of those things where the tech needs to get 10x cheaper before it actually makes sense as a product.

This is not really working for me at all, the second images always look near identical to the first with some minor changes. Maybe my prompts are the issue? Anyone have some good prompts?

I started with the prompt "F-104 Starfighter" and it went pretty well. [0]

I wish I could share all of the things I clicked on afterwards, exactly in the order in which I tried to tell the story. When I try to use the share feature on anything below the root node, I get "This page could not be saved for sharing." However, the video generation does work in that share modal, in the way I would expect. [1]

Super cool project.

This is one of the more unique ideas i've encountered in a long time

It's perfect for toddlers (I mean that in a good way), it's the infinite answer to the infinite "What's that?" series of questions they can generate. Make everything a hyperlink and it's almost like a LLM mind map of knowledge.

Don't trust it too much. I got it to generate a datacenter filled with brains in jars, and it went with it.

you gave me the idea of using it to explore weird random scifi ideas, ended up spending way too much time clicking through details about the role of astrophage in the development of intelligence in deep sea life. Fun!

It's not really a website streamed live at all... It's just asking a model to generate an image with some web searches plus its built-in (trained knowledge)

You can do this with any agentic coding model now... just ask OpenAI codex : generate me an image given this query: "the query" and you will get the same kind of outputs.

It looks pretty nice - reminds me of Dorling Kindersley books. But the graphics, whilst stylised, are pretty hit-and-miss. Great idea, just a bit too soon.
