    We're launching an in-game AI agent for WoW

    Willo is a new in-game AI companion for World of Warcraft, described as a little wisp who knows where you are, what you're chasing and who you're talking to, and answers out loud in her own voice. She can answer questions about quests, lore, where to go next and graphics settings, lets targeted characters such as innkeepers or kings reply as themselves, and keeps notes, goals and reminders between sessions. She is free to start, runs on Windows 10 and 11 or a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or later, macOS 12 or later), works on her own, and the optional Lore Forever add-on is free forever.

    Aipicks.ca – Using multi-sport AI models to find edges in table tennis

    Aipicks.ca advertises an AI that predicts table tennis matches, offering a free first pick, a free weekly email pick, and a public "Proof Room" ledger of wins and losses. Paid one-time packs cost $2 CAD for one pick, $3 for two, or $5 for five, with no commissions or after-win fees. The site states predictions may lose, availability varies, and orders go through a separate manual-payment request page rather than automatic checkout.

    Show HN: AI Frothiness Index. Daily reading of how stretched the AI boom is

    Jagular.io's AI Heat Map publishes a daily 0–100 reading of how stretched the AI boom is, built from 19 indicators drawn from free public sources including FRED, SEC EDGAR, Yahoo Finance, the npm registry, Y Combinator's company list and the Ramp AI Index, with 50 as normal and the dot-com peak as the yardstick for 100. Pillars are weighted Prices 30%, Borrowing & risk appetite 20%, Spending strain 20% and Speculation 15%, with real demand taking the remaining 15% as a counterweight. A separate noise meter tracks AI-bubble talk over the last 28 days via Hacker News mentions, Wikipedia views and prediction-market volume, and the author notes the project is not investment advice.

    llm-anthropic 0.31

    Anthropic released Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2, and the author added both to llm-anthropic, so prompts can now be run through Fable 5.2 via the llm CLI. Testing pelican SVG generation at all five reasoning levels (low, medium, high, xhigh, max), the best result came from xhigh, while max failed to return an image at all after spending 128,000 tokens thinking. The author notes this is the same bug seen with Opus 5.5 but new for the Fable series, since Fable 5 and Fable 5.1 returned max effort pelicans fine.

    Show HN: STE80 Humanizer – de-AI text by writing 80% of the way to ASD-STE100

    STE80 Humanizer is a skill that rewrites AI-written text in two passes: it removes the 26 "AI tells" from Wikipedia's Signs of AI writing catalog, then rebuilds sentences "80% of the way to ASD-STE100," the controlled English of aircraft maintenance manuals. It follows Andrej Karpathy's tip to ask LLMs for "80% of the way to ASD-STE100" for readability, and states that its goal is easily read text, not passing AI detectors. It installs via the skills CLI or as a Claude Code plugin, includes a dependency-free Python linter (scripts/ste_check.py), and keeps every fact while flagging contradictions in the source.

    Aleph – a declarative programming language for AI agents

    Aleph is a declarative language for AI agents in which every route declares what it can read, write, and compute, and anything unbounded is rejected at build time. It compiles TypeScript into a manifest that a small open-source Rust engine interprets, with auth, databases, queues, and other backend pieces built in so many apps can share one runtime and database. The material also describes per-route worst-case usage checks, schema-change classification against what's deployed, and a typed vocabulary intended to make agent-written code easy to check.
