Komoroske: Builders should focus on weird disruptive tools over existing playbooks
“Websim to me is in a disruptive thing, things that look alien and weird and yet are compelling. Those are what we should be paying more attention to as opposed to, you know, take an existing playbook and like slap some AI on it, you know?”
Haisfield: WebSim generates pages on the fly with zero 404 errors
“What if we could, like, put in any URL, and it will work, right? Like, there's no four oh fours. Everything exists. It just makes it up on the fly for you, right?”
Haisfield: WebSim gives language models far greater expressive tools
“That's like one of the things that's magic about WebSim generally is that it gives language models much far greater tools for expression, right?”
Haisfield: Dylan Field tested generating Figma inside WebSim
“Dylan field actually posted this recently, like trying Figma in Figma or in web sim.”
Haisfield: Claude tolerates imperfect URL syntax when generating WebSim apps
“Like, you don't need to get the exact syntax of an actual URL. Claude's smart enough to figure it out.”

Haisfield: A WebSim user created a novel 5D particle interface
“One of our users literally made a frickin', like, five-dimensional particle interface. Like, this is a completely novel UX.”

“What I find most fascinating about this idea is that it shifts us away from the perspective of agents, ah, to interact with, to the perspective of environments that we want to interact with. And, ah, while arguably this agent paradigm of the chatbot is, ah, wh…”
Bach: WebSim generated cat is undeniable early proof of AI creativity
“And to me, it's one of the first genuine expression of AI creativity that you cannot deny, right? It finds a creative solution to the problem that it is unable to draw a cat. It doesn't really know what it looks like, but it has an idea on how to represent it.”
