RIP. I loved PSO on the Dreamcast, sank alot of hours into that game back then... Anyone here remembers that? And the Tamagotchi-esque memory cards (VMU) were cool.
I totally get what you are feeling, I felt the same just 6 weeks ago.
It just did not click for you yet.
There is probably some key feature missing, that you deeply care about, but do not yet see it solved, or on the horizon of becoming solved by the application of a personal "Jarvis" yet.
Personal assistants fulfill different needs for everyone. I personally care a lot about having fun at coding again, that's what the OpenClaw craze made me feel for the first time in decades. I build my own OpenClaw assistant generator from scratch using a simple Markdown file because it is just so fun. Not so much using it for anything notably yet but starting to see their potential.
Just ponder what it is that you get out of using ChatGPT and imagine how it could be better, more personal to you. You may find some key feature missing from OpenClaw or have some completely orthogonal project idea that excites you.
I am a solo founder currently (re-)starting multiple FOSS projects. Not much to show for yet, because most of my projects are down as I am starting fresh...
- Tool.io (https://tool.io), a digital tool library, think Wikipedia but for tools. Still rewriting it, publishing to Github soon.
- animania.info (https://animania.info), this one got content actually. Some ~50 hand written MIT licensed CSS animations by me that I created for fun, in the pre-LLM era.
- I am also in the midts of creating a "learn programming from scratch Youtube channel".
- ROE.md (https://github.com/guld/ROE.md), raise your own personal AI assistant like a vibe pro from a single Markdown file.
I tried their keyboard switch demo prompt and adapted it to create a 2D Webgl-less version to use CSS, SVG and it seem to work nicely, it thinks for a very long time however. https://chat.z.ai/c/ff035b96-5093-4408-9231-d5ef8dab7261
Complex self-replicating programs emerging spontaneously from random noise byte strings with:
- zero mutation
- a sharp phase transition that looks like gelation
- and a proof that blocking deep symbiogenetic ancestry trees prevents the transition entirely
- written in a variant of BrainFuck that can read and write its own code called BFF.
