Both major labs switched on text watermarking within 48 hours at the turn of August. My first thought was that this is very hard to do in a way that actually holds text has no pixel layer to hide anything in. So I read Anthropic's own documentation on how it works.

It does work. It also breaks in a lot of ordinary situations, and they say so themselves: short text leaves too little signal, heavy editing or translation thins it out, screenshots and format conversion strip it entirely.

For solo makers, wearing every hat is almost unavoidable - developer, marketer, support, product and often designer too.

AI makes this even easier now. You can generate UI pretty quickly, but a lot of products end up relying on consistent, polished AI-generated solutions rather than something truly unique or thoughtfully designed for their specific product.

So I m curious:

Do you design the UI/UX yourself when building solo?

While building an AI coach, we ran into an interesting problem: memory is useful, but some things shouldn t just be remembered - they should become rules.

If someone says, avoid overhead pressing, asking for a harder workout later shouldn t erase that constraint.

It made me wonder: what information in your AI product should survive every follow-up, no matter what?
