The Notebook

Why this notebook exists

I’m an early adopter, the kind of person who tries the new thing first and figures it out along the way. I’m not a coder or a developer. I’m a fan of technology who learns by doing.

AI has opened a window for people like me, and for the people who build technology. You don’t have to wait for the next big thing. You can follow your curiosity, ask what else you could build or do, and take something new that isn’t mainstream yet and use it in ways few people, or nobody, have tried.

I’ve lost a lot of sleep since the agentic wave arrived. OpenClaw began as a weekend project in November 2025 and took its current name in January 2026. Nous Research released Hermes Agent that February. Since August, the big labs have shipped always-on agents of their own: xAI’s Grok Bot, then Meta’s Muse, Manus’s Cue and OpenAI’s Dots in September.

Cases4AI is my notebook from that journey. Each case has an idea, how it works, how to build it, and a file you can hand an agent. It’s for anyone discovering this new dimension and starting to see AI as a companion, not just an assistant.

If that’s you, welcome. The about page is the longer version of this note, and AI 101 is the picture dictionary I wish I’d had at the start.
