Hey everyone! Just dropping my weekly AI update while it's still fresh in my mind. Been cooking up some really cool stuff with DeepSeek R1 this week - had some killer conversations with Greg Isenberg and the crew about everything from setup to actual implementation. Let me break down what's been happening and what's coming up next...
