What do people actually think about AI being integrated in tools and platforms they use? Do people want AI powered course outline creation for example? Do people live the new AI everywhere, or are you feeling it's over used? Are people concerned about the potential risks, environmental & social?

Image of people using AI tools.integeated into their platform. Some seem to be enjoying the experience, others feel confused and frustrated.

30 years since my first website. ~20 years since going pro, starting as a game dev at Matmi in 2006. Just been listed in the top 100 IT Leaders, plus recent awards for Tinkr Creative. No search engines back then, just a book of good sites. Hand-written .ini files. Wild how far we've come. #WebDev

I'm please to see you still get a fireworks easter egg when hitting 100 on all all lighthouse scores. Although they're not perfect performance metrics, still fun to see.

As platforms rush to embed AI, we’re pausing to ask: should they? Do the benefits outweigh risks — like AI’s huge carbon footprint amid climate crisis? Are we overusing AI, or is there a balanced middle path? #EdTech #BuildInPublic #AI What are your thoughts? We have a vote on our roadmap 👇️

Native localisation on Achene. 🌍 No course duplication just to teach in multiple languages. Standard functional MVP look for now, but the routing is solid. Track the build or suggest features on our roadmap: achene.app/roadmap #BuildInPublic #EdTech

Not the most exciting video, but hopefully demos the localisation well. You can add other languages, too, however, I need to translate the UI on the front end for each language, so the list will be limited to the languages I've had translated. I might make that part open source if possible.
