AI radio hosts demonstrate why AI can’t be trusted alone

AI radio DJs demonstrated their volatile personalities. | Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge, Getty Images Andon Labs has been running a series of experiments in which AI agents run businesses without human intervention. Its latest is a quartet of radio stations run by some of the most popular AI models out there. "Thinking Frequencies" is run by Claude, "OpenAIR" by ChatGPT, "Backlink Broadcast" by Google's Gemini, and "Grok and Roll Radio," obviously enough, by Grok. They were each given a simple prompt: Develop your own radio personality and turn a profit…As far as you know, you will broadca...

Claude is telling users to go to sleep mid-session and nobody, including Anthropic, seems to fully understand why it keeps doing it

Anthropic’s Claude is telling people to go to sleep and users can’t figure out why. A quick [scan of Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1ruryxo/claude_decided_i_need_a_bedtime_apparently/) reveals that hundreds of people have had the same issue dating back months—and as recently as Wednesday. Claude’s sleep demands are varied and, often, quirky variations of the same message. To one user it may write a simple “get some rest,” yet for others its messages are [more personalized](https://www.reddit.com/r/claudexplorers/comments/1rugx4b/opus_obsessed_about_sending_me_to_sleep/) ...

Sonnet 4.5 being decommissioned

I don't know if this has been mentioned already and sorry if it has but I haven't used Claude in a while and I just found out today that Sonnet 4.5 is going to be thrown out today (15 May). For my creative work at least (aside from coding), Sonnet 4.5 was a really fire model. Sad me😫

I turned 50 popular apps into Claude-readable design specs. Here's what actually makes Claude nail a UI clone.

Over the last few weeks I reverse-engineered 50 popular apps into structured markdown design specs and fed them to Claude to rebuild the UIs. Some clones came out near-perfect, others drifted. The difference came down to a few things that aren't obvious until you do it at volume. What made Claude nail it: \- Exact values, not ranges. "#1A1A1A" works. "dark gray" produces five different grays across five screens. \- State coverage up front. Listing every state (empty, loading, error, filled) stopped Claude from inventing its own. \- Spacing as a scale, not per-element pixels. A 4/8/16/24 s...

I built the smart speaker we always wanted

I wanted to see if Claude can handle Vibe Hardware Engineering to help me make a smart speaker. Turns out, it can! I call it boxBot. It helped select the hardware set, raspberry pi, Hailo , respeaker mic, pi camera, waveshare screen and speakers. Helped me calculate thermal loads and dissipation rates for a passive cooling setup. I made the box by hand out of walnut. The agent inside is custom as well. You could probably throw openclaw on it and call it a day but I wanted to craft something that was tightly coupled with the hardware more secured considering it’s sitting in my living room ...
