Is AI Capable of Novelty?

AI has indeed come a long way in the last couple of years. But if we boil it down, it’s all basically just very sophisticated pattern matching. Let’s say you ask AI to write a piece of code, there’s a good chance that the data it was trained on had the exact same problem solved in many different ways. i.e. the algorithm for merge sort. But let’s say you ask it something fairly unique i.e. a specific domain modeling of your new business. It’s quite possible that it hasn’t seen those exact require...

AI is quietly changing how marketing copy gets made and nobody in my field is talking about it seriously

Most marketing teams I know are using AI to draft copy now. Not as an experiment, as the actual workflow. Brief goes in, three variations come out, someone tweaks it, done. The tools are fast enough that a coordinator can do in two hours what used to take a week of back and forth with an agency. Here's the thing nobody wants to say out loud though. The output is competent. Not brilliant, not soulless either, just competent. Which is exactly what most clients want, and exactly what makes this a...

I turned "AI design slop" into a rules file you drop into Cursor/Claude so your builds UIUX stop looking generated

Everything I vibe-coded kept coming out the same: purple gradient, three-card row, rounded-2xl everything, an italic serif hero I never asked for. The model fills any decision you leave unspecified with the average of its training data, and that average is the "AI look." So I catalogued the tells, then wrote them up as a drop-in rules file. Rename it to CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, or AGENTS.md and your agent designs against the defaults automatically. It is phrased as "prefer a rea...

Show HN: Slaide, open-source Markdown slides AI writes and PowerPoint opens

I am trying to replace PowerPoint with a file format better suited for AI. But let me fill you in... So, I pitch a lot these days, and "make the deck" had become the worst part of my week. I don't know about you, but automation hasn't really worked for me here. Every AI deck tool I tried failed the same way. After various trial and errors, it ends up being fine on screen, but a broken approximation on export, and not one of them would touch my company master. So I was thinking that perhaps the s...
