Teapot rendered in nano-bananas with Luma AI.

Well, hello again!

This is I'm A Teapot, a weekly newsletter for techy creatives, creative techys and everybody else that enjoys some good reading and does not give an f- about categories. No tech knowledge needed, just a curious mind, pinky promise.

ENGINEERING

You know what made me fall in love with technology? The creativity. The riddles, the puzzles, the mind-benders. Which is why, this week I want to share two tech pieces that are about thinking outside the box and reinventing the rules: Why making your browser time travel is the best way to record videos: Building a camera by lying to your browser about time and a great interactive exploration how Shazam actually works: How the heck does Shazam work?

DIGITAL

With that out of the way, let us dive into AI aigain ;)

Some really on point insights, some utter BS on the future of AI in this Stanford experts piece. Can you tell which is which? Stanford AI experts predict what will happen in 2026

Great post by Vitaly Friedman regarding AI giving better responses: Five ways of engineering context for AI Slight addendum from my side, the "thinking" anthromorphization is misleading our reading about things like this. AI "condenses" in the widest sense of the word, it is the high-pass filter of information processing tools.

What a great piece of work: The AI Atlas of Interactions, a must read imho for everyone serious about modelling human and AI-interaction beyond "I want to prompt X." level: The Atlas of AI Interaction Design
