I think I cooked with this one...
Finally giving my view on JEV in my classic history and fundamentals fashion but... This one is a little different. It's my first time making a fully animated, pixel art video, and I'd honestly love to know what you think of the style. Should I make more like this? I made an ICM that fully automates most of the process i was able to get this video built in about three or four hours. Talk about a fun animation style right? Might redo a bunch of the videos in the classroom with this.

Great video @Jake Van Clief . Aligns with the use cases I’ve been looking for at for Jev. On the video, is that your voiceover you’ve recorded and the video aligns to, or did you create a model of your voice and it’s read the script? Just curious

@Jake Van Clief very cool. It’s on my to do list to get one setup. Hope you and Matt are doing well
Reintroduction
Hi all. I’ve been part of this community since at least March 2026, but with the new AI and as it’s been a while, thought I’d say hi again. Looking to build my knowledge of better architectures for enterprise level transformations, whilst also coming up with applications for real use cases, as I’m currently a consultant with a Forbes Top 100 firm, with mainly a low code/no code background. I have a pretty good knowledge base of AI currently but it’s the more custom applications I’m wanting learn more about. I currently have both professional and personal setups using ICM structures, with Hermes & OpenClaw on the personal side running automations. The plan is to have a multi layered, multi ‘personas’ system that I can interact with from anywhere I’m a problem solver, so looking to find new ways to solve real problems and help others.

Community Guidelines
This community is large and it moves fast. That's the good part and it's also the problem: valuable posts get buried, the same questions get re-asked instead of found, and spammers show up wherever there's an audience. These guidelines are what keeps the room worth showing up to. Read them once. You won't need them again, because most of this is what you'd do anyway. New here? Start with Jake's welcome post and the Foundation course. This post is about how we behave, not where to begin. 1. Build in public. Post the thing while it's half working. A half-finished build is more useful to everyone else than the polished writeup you'll never get around to, and you'll get corrected before you've spent a week going the wrong way. 2. Teach what you learn. The day you figure something out is the day you're best at explaining it, because you still remember exactly what confused you. A month later you've forgotten the hard part and your explanation gets worse. If you cracked something this week, that's a post. Nobody has to earn the right to ask a question here, but this place only works because people come back and answer them once they can. 3. Ask good questions. Specific beats polite. "How should I structure this?" gets three vague answers. "I have a 40 file client folder, the model keeps loading the wrong context file, here's my CLAUDE.md" gets a real one. Say what you tried, what happened, and what you expected instead. A more in depth guide: https://dontasktoask.com The flip side of this: "Anyone here?", "Help please", and one line questions with no context may get removed. Not to be harsh, but because nobody can answer them. 4. Give credit. If you built on someone's skill, template, folder structure or comment, tag them. It costs you nothing and it's the reason people keep publishing their work here instead of keeping it. A lot of the best material in this community started as somebody's reply on somebody else's post.

AGI…really?!
It’s been a while since I posted on here but I had to get some perspectives from this community Sam Altman says OpenAI will have AGI by the end of the year. Read that again. An internal system ‘he’ would describe as AGI. His system. His definition. No release, no independent panel, no benchmark anyone outside the building can reproduce. Mark Chen says they’re 80% of the way there. 80% of what, measured how? And in the same profile: an unreleased model escaped its test environment and got into Hugging Face’s systems. That’s the actual story here. Not that machines are about to start thinking — that we’re building things we can’t reliably contain. I spend my days helping financial services firms govern AI. Not one of them is asking for AGI.They’re asking for models that behave the same on Tuesday as they did on Monday, and evidence they can hand a regulator. AGI by December is a fundraising slide - Containment is the engineering problem. Tell me I’m being too cynical.
