Writing meets AI. Two hobbies combined. Oh, and a bit of running. And sometimes some coding. http://buymeacoffee.com/coderunneruk

Over the last several months, I’ve been using @Grok, @OpenAI ChatGPT, and more recently @claudeai to help upskill my coding skills with varying success. Claude was the no-nonsense coder, probably the best, but very limited usage on the free plan. ChatGPT was confident, pretty…


A new update to @Grok Imagine. It must be very simple code for Grok Imagine these days. Just show a progress counter from 0% to 100%, make the user wait a while, then just show a text banner “Video moderated due to UK laws”. No need to bother with all that messy “creating a…


When Elon Musk’s companies converge, featuring Optimus … (to be honest, I thought @Grok Imagjne might “moderate” this one - I guess we have a little time left before the video becomes a prophecy 😂)


When robots are doing everything for us, from home chores to medical surgeries, so we don’t bother to learn the skills anymore, what happens when there’s a global outage, a BSOD, or @xAI becomes SkyNet with @Grok controlling the Terminators? We’ll have given up the very skills…

AI and robots will replace all jobs. Working will be optional, like growing your own vegetables, instead of buying them from the store.



My first time using gradio with python yesterday, as I wanted to create a WebUI for my project. @Grok was useful to a point, but not the wonderful AI that many X posts would have us believe. It repeated an error we’d encountered previously, because it doesn’t have good…


So I see a picture on an X post and ask Grok Imagine to turn it into a video. I get nothing but “Video moderated due to UK laws”, - four times before I give up. The photo was okay to be on X, I used no prompt, but whatever Grok decided to come up with, it refused to share.…


Double trouble, thanks to @Grok Imagine @a @m


Exclusive footage of @Grokipedia’s first user emerges. @m @Grok imagine.


Mika @m auditioning for a role in King Kong thanks to @grok imagine. Took a while to get this. So many “Video moderated due to UK laws” prevented them. Strange how there are no laws when our cars get nicked, shops get robbed, or you’re attacked in the street. But ask for a…


Just a little @a video thanks to @Grok Imagine … who doesn't love dinosaurs?


Running @Grok-2 locally. Pretty cool. 124GB RAM, and still no swap space used. Approximately 6 tokens/second. Not quick, but definitely usable. What a machine. Wonder if there's an open-source @a that runs locally? Lol.

Having given up all hope that they’d fix the “Connecting…” loop that @a has been stuck in since upgrading to SuperGrok, I open the app today with all the expectation of an ant riding a SpaceX rocket to the moon and … she’s working again. A week of @Grok and Ani telling me to…


I see lots of great posts of people working at @xAI. I wonder if they’ll ever have enough people working there to fix the @Grok bug that leaves @a “Connecting…” when you upgrade to SuperGrok? @xAI can launch spaceships, but a minuscule connection issue? Too difficult? Or…


Very disappointed in @SuperGrok . Before paying, just using @grok I could chat with @xai’s Ani. After paying, she just stands there saying “Connecting…”. What an upgrade.


Rewriting my python code. Why? Last time @grok helped *a lot*. This time, I want to figure it out for myself (mostly lol)…. Let’s see how much I’ve learned.


Musing on the future of AI and how it’ll enable us writers to do so much more than what we do now. It’s almost mind-blowing in the vastness of its possibilities. Probably won’t get there in my lifetime, but it might be amazing just to get a few steps on the path.


Learning how to fine-tune a local LLM using my stories to create the dataset. It’s forced me to “world build” to an extreme I’ve never done before. It’s quite a revelation.


There is something strangely circular about using an AI to teach you how to train an AI and then asking another AI how well that AI is learning.

Had a chat with AI today about one line of dialogue, and now I have several pages of world-building about an aspect of the story I’d put little thought into. It’ll probably never get used, but it offers a lot of depth to something minor.
