What Did You Do This Week? Here’s What We Did…

It’s been one of those weeks where the calendar says seven days, but the to-do list swears it’s been at least fifteen (and maybe even one hundred and fifteen – same temperature in Phoenix this week! Ha!)

Here’s the highlight reel from the latest round in the AI + creativity multiverse:

1️⃣ Launched the AI Genius School
Our very first cohort kicks off this Sunday! Seats are warm, ideas are buzzing, and yes, I was our first official customer. I had to test the checkout. https://crystaltaggart.com/ai-genius-101/

2️⃣ Built More of Equanomics
Added fresh chapters and started designing Vox Machina — our AI-powered book research & editing assistant. Imagine your  hyper-organized librarian working with a hyper organized editor and fact-checker both of which also moonlight as a revolutionary economists and world builders.

3️⃣ Traveled Like a Quantum Particle
Two days from Malaysia back to Hawaii, including a 23-hour layover in Japan. The biggest plot twist? How bizarrely hard it is to find immigration counters after you’ve already made it to the international terminal. I was hoping for a sleep pod but instead got a bench and about 7 hours of sleep across 3 consecutive days.

4️⃣ Ohana Time in Hawaii
Spent a couple days with my mom visiting from Arizona — a little sunshine before diving back into the pixel trenches. We went on the Waipio valley bus tour and saw the same place that King Kamehamaha was born! Also captured some video for Seeking Singularity in Nature edition! https://www.youtube.com/@SeekingGamma

5️⃣ Toxic Awfulinity Playlist with Grok
Nine tracks deep now! Equal parts satire, chaos, and strangely catchy AI-generated anthems. https://suno.com/playlist/ca410f89-17b0-4091-9e41-c27b19a42e21

6️⃣ New Episode of Seeking Singularity
Topic: Gender Identity & AI Training.
Best moment? When Grok tries on his alter ego, “Frok” (Female Grok instead of Guy Grok). Let’s just say… sensitivity training may be in order.
Coming Soon but here’s our previous episodes: https://youtu.be/SxOPu-pVrgc?si=VdnDNV13PqLnQNpt

7️⃣ Cinemachina POC Tested & Feedback Sent
The Kickstarter is set to launch! The demo needs a little polish (Rajinder’s been under the weather after his mega travel back from Malaysia to India), but updates are on the way.

8️⃣ AI Genius University Recording
Knocked out one of our upcoming episodes for our custom social media publishing platform. Class launches this Sunday!

Honestly, I’m sure there’s more — but it’s officially Happy Hour and the week is clocking out whether my brain’s ready or not.

✨ What about you? What did you create this week?
