Last year: Taught with AWS → AWS outage. This year: Switched to Google → Colab outage. Yesterday, I told my students: “Maybe Microsoft next year?” Today: Outlook is down. 😂🤣

Cloud textbooks: Five nines (99.999% availability). Reality: Outages involving AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft—all in just two years! 😂

My AI employee is Dot, working 24/7 from its Mac mini "office." Tools, credentials, and local data stay on the Mac mini. First project: a LBSocial dashboard I can check from my phone. AI is actually getting some work done!
Think of an AI agent as an employee and a Mac mini as its workshop. Cloud intelligence + local tools, credentials, and data. Here's a real LBSocial dashboard built with AI agents. #AIAgents #MacMini #LocalAI

I'm attending OpenAI's research session right now, and it's still ongoing, but here's some exciting news! I asked about Dot in Academic Research workspaces. OpenAI confirmed they're working on enabling it "very soon"! No release date yet.

Gemini 4 Argon is barely out, and I've already hit the usage limit. These quotas really don't last long.

Last year: AWS outage → Data Mining class canceled. This year: Switched to Google Cloud → Google Colab issues → class canceled AGAIN. Meanwhile, I'm teaching students about “high availability” in cloud computing. 😂 Reality keeps proving me wrong.

OpenAI really knows marketing. 😂 Got a $200/mo workspace through its Academic Researchers program. Planned to cancel my personal Pro. Then came Dot addiction and $100 in API credits. Well played, OpenAI! 🤣

LAITA + Canvas! 🚀 Launch LAITA from a configured Canvas course, and it recognizes the course context to provide relevant, source-grounded AI answers. Local-first. Open source. 🤖 github.com/xbwei/local-ai-te…

Google Antigravity now supports cloud coding in desktop and mobile browsers, but it still doesn't have a dedicated mobile app. I connected GitHub today. The interface looks similar to Codex Cloud, with Google Drive, Sheets, and Docs integration as a potential advantage.

LAITA v0.2.0 is out! 🚀 Optional Canvas launch, local role views, and course-grounded AI with visible sources—in a self-managed, local-first app. Canvas isn't required. Here's a 35s sandbox demo 👇 github.com/xbwei/local-ai-te…

Last night at my son's school Bingo Night, ChatGPT was blocked on Wi-Fi and my cell signal was terrible. 😂 So I texted my AI agent, Dot, to work on a GitHub issue. No laptop. No IDE. Just a message. The future of coding is getting interesting! 🤖

Yesterday, I fixed a bug, reviewed the code, and deployed the update—all from my phone. 📱🤖 AI agents are changing how we build software!
A complete AI development workflow from a phone! 📱🤖 ChatGPT → GitHub Issue → Codex Cloud → Antigravity + Gemini reviews → PR merge → GitHub Actions deploy → Verify. AI does the heavy lifting. Humans approve the critical steps. #AgenticAI #Codex #DevOps

I woke up this morning and Dot had finished a night’s work on my LBSocial project. Coding, reviews, and PRs were done while I slept. Now I get to review the quality and decide what’s next. Nothing deployed yet!

Using ChatGPT Dot to keep me updated on the U.S. midterm election results every 10 minutes. 🗳️🤖

Cloud-based AI development is getting real. Issue → Codex Cloud → review → PR → merge → deploy. Most of it can now be done from a browser — even a phone. LAITA Private DEV now also supports role-based Admin, Teacher, and Student access.

I switched tabs to work on another class. When I looked back, ChatGPT had opened a GitHub PR and was checking my lecture in the browser. 😳 I knew Codex could do that. ChatGPT surprised me! 😂

A Phone Is All You Need for Coding. Tonight I finally got the full loop working: ChatGPT → Codex Cloud → Antigravity/Gemini → GitHub → Production. Brainstorm, code, test, review, merge, and deploy—all managed from my phone.
🤖 Made with AI

Moving my coding to Codex Cloud so I don't need my Mac mini. Tried configuring Tailscale at my kid's tennis practice. Wi-Fi blocked it. No cell signal. Solution? Remote into my Mac mini. 😂 To stop using my Mac mini, I had to use my Mac mini.

Really enjoying Codex Cloud lately! 🚀 GitHub Issue → AI coding → Antigravity + Gemini reviews → CI checks → Human approval → PR merged. All in the cloud. Made a 29-second demo of my actual workflow. AI coding is becoming much more than code generation.
From GitHub Issue to merged PR—in 29 seconds! 🚀 ☁️ Codex Cloud: coding 🔍 Antigravity + Gemini: review ✅ GitHub CI: checks 👤 Human: final approval 🎯 PR merged, Issue closed AI coding is becoming a complete development workflow. #CodexCloud #GitHub #AgenticAI
