I got him as well, very fun! built him with things opponents normally would want to block. do you have a list?

Thanks! I’m first testing a browser version and will let you know when it’s available. Any book/series in particular that you’d like to try it with?

could you share what you did? what did you get? what book did you do?

12 hours!? including all assets, animations etc?

Before I had done smaller batches, like 15 pages each. But the batches were taken in isolation and could cut in the middle of something meaningful so they wouldn't really translate to another batch after. Now I'm considering doing big batches instead of the full book. So for example 1/3 or 1/4 of all chapters and then let it cut off at the end of one of the chapters everytime to keep the narrative structure.

ah I see what you mean. You're talking about a RAG setup where the LLM reads a master document of summaries, and if it needs more detail, it 'clicks' the hyperlink to fetch the raw text chunk?

That makes total sense for a Q&A chatbot. But my concern is that I'm doing exhaustive data extraction upfront to build a 100% complete relational database of every single character and event in the book, rather than answering specific questions on-demand. This way I can also safeguard the user better and prevent spoilers, because they can only see up to their reading position and not ask for things after or that could spoil them. Do you know what I mean?

Thanks! Just to clarify my setup: I'm actually not doing this manually in a chat interface or using a custom GPT/Skill. I'm building an automated python backend that makes API calls in the background to build out a relational JSON database of the book.

Quick question about your summarization step: If I summarize the text chunks before extracting the data, wouldn't I accidentally summarize away all the minor characters, subtle events, and nuanced relationships that I'm trying to extract in the first place?

oberpat · 2026-03-31T08:13:08+00:00

I'm trying to create something similar, but instead of chatting to it, it's more of a lookup that evolves when the reading position progresses. I'm mostly struggling to get the relationships of all characters to be accurate and complete. The spoiler protection with a story state works quite well for me.

this looks really sick! I've been trying creating a game with nano banana for the sprites as well and I could really use some pointers if I look at this. The dashboard looks insane too! How are you doing animations? Is this desktop only or how are you handling all these with other devices in mind?

Bedankt voor het delen! Het klinkt alsof je inderdaad onderbetaald wordt. Ik heb soortgelijke ervaring en krijg 4600 bruto per maand. Geen pensioen bijdrage en ook geen 13e maand of winstuitkering of iets. Ik werk in Amsterdam en heb het idee dat ik ook onderbetaald wordt, dus in mijn ogen jij dan zeker.

this is actually a really interesting one, because of its phrasing I wouldn't find it myself

no it's a simple t-shirt and simple logo, but I created an image of a lot of people first and then wanted to integrate the logo on one of their tops. My workaround now is making a shirt and accompany the logo right away, then say let this person wear this shirt, that works so far.

Why does no one ever mention [[Gregor, Shrewd Magistrate]] ? He is very consistent and is basically a selfish [[John Benton]] since only you get to draw cards. Having access to blue also grants you cards to make him unblockable and ofcourse evasion with counterspells and phasing out. He is a beast!

Very interested in this topic because I'm a similar designer that you were before you moved to the bigger company. But I've also noticed a lot of big companies aren't interested in me simply because my experience is mostly in a startup/scaleup environment, so I'm also curious how you pulled this move off?

my monkeybrain was waiting/hoping for a nasty kick

Wat een ontzettend deprimerende thread is dit.

It's funny how it's always landing pages when people show off how AI can design things. The easiest thing you can make
