you know where in-the-moment, "system 1" type ai decision-making could be cool? music technology. jevseq is a demented multiplayer drum sequencer. you paint the world, jev walks it in real time, and tries its hardest to hit a snare on 2 and 4. up here jevseq.untold.exposed

Got a pretty good setup going with Claude Remote Control, doing Windows builds and testing for our audio systems without having to suffer using a Windows machine. I talk to Claude from a browser on my Mac, it drives things on Windows for me.
