The News Production Studio is live. The functionality is sufficient for generating well-illustrated one-minute news summaries. The length of videos isn't actually limited. Video illustrations are procured or generated before-hand, paying attention to the aspect ratio. Obviously I didn't want to implement a full vide-editing suite in the browser...

This tool actually uses very little AI. With that being said, it is well-positioned to be plugged into agentic workflows, since every step is either already automated or is positioned to be driven agentically.

Clearly, application prototyping uses a different set of technologies than production-grade development.

FYI... I recommend doing two things on the new phone:

1. prevent automatic updates. go to settings, search for "download", "download over wifi" -> swich to never. In developer settings (tap build number 7 times) you can also turn off "update on system restart".

2. granularly deny notifications. In settings, search for "manage notification categories for each app" and turn it on. Then you can long-press each notification and decide which ones you don't want, for example, you can keep message chat notifications and deny "promotions" and "other".
 

In this quick tutorial we'll set up python on a mac os x in order to run ansble from the current folder.

The trading platform, currently code named Irowor, makes decisions and takes action automatically. It's not AI-enabled, it's pretty straightforward with hard-coded rules. As I finish writing that system, the structure of the trading bot will be reused for agentic AI. Because an agentic system has to make observations, decisions, and then take actions. This is like watching the market, following a strategy, and placing trades.

In the process of building an agentic AI system, I will first build the "agentic" and "system" part, touching very little on AI. There are several reasons for this. Auditability is one of them. I want to know exactly what is happening and why. I think AI is mostly unnecessary for both (1) action-taking and (2) decision-making for me at this point.
