Ethan Mollick reviews various physical hardware tools and interfaces, such as walky-talkies and macro pads, used to manage AI coding assistants.

AI Analysis

Ethan Mollick experiments with feeding passages from T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land into Flux 3 to test creative generation and tone switching.

I gave Flux 3 the penultimate lines of Eliot's The Wasteland, which involve both switches in tone and in language. I had it read by a modern Fisher King as a city decays behind him. The results were surprisingly good.
