I build things with AI agents to find out where they actually hold up. Most of it is about making learning fun and open to anyone who wants it.
Most of what gets said about AI comes from people selling something. I'm not selling anything. I'd rather find out for myself, so I build real projects with it and write down what broke. That's what this site is for.
The big one right now is I Love My Evening Television, a series of half-hour films made by crews of Claude agents from one prompt each. Every episode starts as a calm little programme and turns strange at minute 20. The first two are on YouTube, and the lore course keeps track of the whole world.
The Hidden Curriculum is a free video course on the small stuff nobody tells you when you start building with AI, like what a folder path is. Agents write, fact-check, narrate and animate every lesson. Start it here.
Then there are my original characters. Jefrie, BloodTailor and the rest of the cast keep showing up in everything I make. They get drawn, painted in oil, animated and dropped into games.
On the game side there's BLACKWATER, zombies but you're cave diving, which I built in a weekend and you can play in your browser. And LLM Monster Hunter, a monster-catching game where no monster exists until you meet it. The AI writes, paints and referees each one while the code keeps every number. It's paused for now. Everything else is on the projects page.
The ledger is where I file what I tried and what came of it, dead ends included. The prompt that seemed obviously right and wasn't. The agent that did something so strange I had to screenshot it. If you're learning this stuff too, I think an honest write-up of a failure is worth more than another launch announcement.
I'm learning Japanese and I volunteer with a local Japanese club, including a bilingual Studio Ghibli storytime. I play fingerstyle guitar and write songs. I'm also in Toastmasters, which has done more for my writing than any style guide.
If you're building something close to any of this, or you just want to talk about where agents break, I'd like to hear from you. Email Aaronjorelup@gmail.com, or find me on GitHub and LinkedIn.
