ESP-Mosaico brings AI-assisted coding to real hardware.
It combines an ESP32-S31-based board with a touchscreen and modular camera, audio, sensor, and control modules.
You can build an idea, deploy it to the device, test it and keep improving it with AI assistance.
Useful for prototyping smart devices, interactive systems, and robotics projects.

I'm enjoying Below so much so that I felt inspired to cook up an ode to my top 5 favourite Mackenzie Davis roles; can't possibly rank them thus from left to right we have: Halt & Catch Fire, the Black Mirror episode: San Junipero, Blade Runner 2049, Station Eleven, and finally Below. And I'll leave her legs up for your imagination.

Finally people get it. AI + prompt based gaming = Metaverse.
It is what @TimSweeneyEpic @ballmatthew and others have been saying for years.
Note that if you said AI was relevant and accelerant for the Metaverse, they'd say it was attaching a dead buzzword to the new one for street cred. But here we are- you cannot deny what your eyes see.
Very clear that the battle being waged for AI enabled gaming- especially prompts like what @DavidBaszucki is aiming for with Roblox- will lead to the exact vision of the Metaverse as put out in Ball's original essays:
-Massively Scaled
-Interoperable
-Real-time rendered
-3D virtual worlds
-Experienced Synchronously and Persistently
-By unlimited users
It's not a future that is coming, it's already here. Intentionally built and predicted accurately years back.

for anyone that likes Pinterest, the Midjourney personalization process is an entertaining survey of your taste.
Simply pick a bunch of your favourite images; no judgment but wish it did attempt to classify a little. I can see my style leans towards hand drawn, painterly & Dragon Quest.
If its one thing that AI excels at... its generating opinions and polite curation. Like many solo artists, I'm using AI to help me accelerate my design process to build games that I want to play!
