  1. I Tried Griffin by Tavus, a Human Interaction Model (HIM)

    Griffin from Tavus puts you on a video call with an AI person. The face mattered less than I expected. How it reacted when I interrupted it mattered more.

  2. I tried MCP Events from OpenAI DevDay 2026

    MCP Events let your app tell ChatGPT when something changes. I built a small TypeScript starter to follow the whole flow, from subscription to signed webhook.

  4. I tried PRAXIST by Sapient Intelligence on an ML dataset

    PRAXIST runs several research directions at once and records what worked. I gave it a standard tabular ML problem to see what it would find.

    Claude limits reset while you sleep, and the unused quota expires. claude-overnight runs queued questions at night without spending the quota you need in the morning.
