Why I'm building a way to talk to computers without speaking
Right, I want to tell you why I'm building a silent-speech app, because it's personal. About 14 years ago I had a stroke. It affected my right side. I walk with a stick now, and speaking is hard for me. I'm also dyslexic, so typing isn't always easy either. Think about it this way: most people talk to AI by typing or by voice. If both of those are hard work, you miss out on a lot of what AI can do. So I started wondering. What if the computer could just read your lips, with no sound at all? I'll be honest, I don't know yet if it'll work for everyone. Everyone's mouth moves a bit differently, so I'm training it on my own face first. So far it's recognised short phrases like "What's the time" and sent them straight to Claude. It's early days. But for the first time in a long time, I'm building something instead of watching other people do it. If you know someone who finds speaking or typing hard, I'd love to hear what would actually help them. If not, no worries at all. Thanks for reading.

@Fionnán O'Sullivan Thanks Fionnán. The workplace side is something I hadn’t thought much about, and you’re right, most employers won’t think of it until someone asks. From my first testers, I’d most like to know three things: - Did it understand what they meant, first time? - Was it quicker or easier than what they use now? - What felt awkward or tiring? The last one matters most. If it’s tiring to use, people won’t use it, however clever it is.

@Fionnán O'Sullivan Will do, Fionnán. Thanks for the encouragement.
New chapter in the making
Name: Jorge Martinez What you do: Own an expediting cargo business. What you want to build: I would like to build an all-tracking system that tracks, creates invoices, emails letters, responses to calls & emails replies and more. Who you want to collab with: ANYONE! - Would love to learn from others and grow.

@Jorge Martinez Welcome Jorge, and thanks again for the kind words on my post. That's a big system, so here's what's worked for me. Don't build it all at once. Pick the one job that eats the most of your time each week and automate just that first. Invoices, email replies, whatever it is. Think of it like building a house. Get one room finished and working before you start the next one. Which part takes up most of your day right now?

@Jorge Martinez Good choice. Invoices are a great first one, because you can see the time you save straight away. One tip: start simple. A template plus a list of jobs in a spreadsheet, and let Claude fill in the invoice from that. Check each one before it goes out until you trust it. Share how you get on, I’d like to see it.
my first AI podcast 👀
Today I’m super stoked to announce my first-ever podcast appearance.👀 (& it’s on the Calum Johnson show!) You can watch it here 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yt_BULiimg4 I’ve never been asked to do a legit podcast before, so this was a huge honor for me & I was def a bit nervous 😅 Calum was an amazing host & he did such a good job simplifying what I had to share and making it super valuable imo We covered stuff like: - how to become valuable in the new AI era - some game-breaking new AI learning prompts I’ve been developing - how to create your first AI build in 10 mins. - & soo much more I’m so excited it’s finally live, and I hope it gives you an entirely new perspective on AI & how to implement it in your life and business. As always, if you have any Q’s lmk below this post 🙏🏽

Well done, Kj. First podcast, and on the Calum Johnson show. That's a big one. I'll be honest, I wanted to say thank you properly. Your system has changed my life for the better. Since my stroke I've had a lot of setbacks. Speech. Walking. Starting over. For a long time I didn't know what I could still do. Your community gave me somewhere to start, and a reason to keep going. For me, this isn't just about AI. It's about building things again, and hopefully helping other people who've been where I am. So thank you.
A duplicate receipt is not a second expense — separate a request from an instruction
A no-code exercise: submit a fictional receipt twice, once as a photo and once as a PDF. Filename matching misses the duplicate. When evaluating OpenClaw, I would compare merchant, date, amount and reference, then leave ambiguous matches for review. Similar totals alone would not justify discarding a legitimate expense. Present the sample as a customer request, then as an owner instruction. Discuss whether the source changes what the operator may do. Which receipt field would you trust most for a duplicate check? What would that additional check change in your decision?

Good exercise, Duy. For me, the receipt or transaction number is the one to trust most. Merchant, date and amount can all match on two real expenses. Two coffees at the same café on the same morning look identical. But the transaction number is only printed once. Same number means the same receipt, whether it came in as a photo or a PDF. That extra check changes the decision from “maybe a duplicate” to “definitely a duplicate”. If the numbers match, flag it. If they’re different, it’s two real expenses, even if everything else looks the same. If there’s no number at all, that’s when it goes to a person to check. Back in the trades, I’d get two invoices from the same supplier for the same amount. The invoice number was always what told me whether I’d been billed twice or ordered twice. On the request versus instruction point, I agree. A customer saying “remove this one” should go for review. Only the owner should be able to tell it to actually delete something.
Hello!!
Hello! I am excited to learn and put these skills to use!!!

Welcome, Ena. Good to have you here. What’s the first thing you’d like to use AI for? Work, your own business, or something else? People in here are really helpful once they know what you’re working on.
