Just in time for March Madness. I created AgentMadness, my AI-powered March Madness tournament sim that turns all 68 NCAA teams into competing AI agents, then lets Claude and ElevenLabs call every game like a live broadcast. Check it: agentmadness-seven.vercel.app repo: github.com/tmoody1973/a...

AgentMadness — AI Tournament Simulator
68 teams become AI agents. Claude simulates every game. ElevenLabs calls every upset. The bracket fills in real time.

As host of Rhythm Lab Radio, I felt this loss deeply. No resources for the help I needed. So I built the Rhythm Lab Radio Selector—a project powered by AI, born from necessity on the day that public radio funding vanishes.

Yesterday, federal funding for public radio ends as CPB support disappears nationwide. It’s a moment that hits home—not just for stations like Radio Milwaukee, but for audiences who rely on public media for culture, discovery, and connection.

I adapted the BMAd-Method™ framework (originally for software development) to create specialized AI agents for public radio management. Each agent has deep expertise in their domain + understanding of public radio's unique mission and constraints.

What happens when you adapt software development AI frameworks for public radio management challenges? The challenge: Public radio stations manage complex operations—fundraising, marketing, programming, partnerships—with skeleton crews and shrinking budgets.

Isaac Asimov Describes How Artificial Intelligence Will Liberate Humans & Their Creativity in His Last Major Interview (1992)
Artificial intelligence may be one of the major topics of our historical moment, but it can be surprisingly tricky to define.

A National Park Service web page about the Underground Railroad appeared to have been restored on Monday to prominently show the abolitionist leader Harriet Tubman, after it had been changed in recent months to remove a large photo and quotes from her.
