We’re trying something new and have rounded up even more tech news – only the best from our own #tech-news Slack channel at Product Hunt.

• Disney made a real WALL-E: Hello, new fren. 🥺
• Google Japan made a giant keycap: It’s open-source. DIY Halloween costume sorted.
• Personal flight is here: It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a “jet ski in the sky.”
• OpenAI has chip ambitions: Your yearbook photos are putting a strain on GPU.
• Amazon Prime Day is now: Reading Wirecutter’s round up and asking myself, once again, if I want to remain in Apple’s walled garden.

Remember “Being John Malkovich?” John Cusack’s character finds a portal into John Malkovich’s mind. What if someone helped you open a portal to yours?

Let’s be real, it probably wouldn’t be a Charlie Kaufman cinematic masterpiece, but we’re betting there would be some pretty good ideas floating down your stream of consciousness.

We’ve been seeing products from makers that understand that some of the best ideas lurk in the depths of our brains.

Talk Notes turns your thoughts into actionable notes using AI. Users just record themselves speaking and then select how they want their thoughts to be organized (e.g. lists, clarified notes, cleaned-up transcript). No need to worry about vocal ticks, and your newly transcribed thoughts can be edited and adjusted afterward.

BrainStory takes another approach. If you’ve ever had a career coach, you know that one of their key strategies is asking judgment-free questions to talk through your ideas. BrainStory does this virtually and verbally. Record your idea and the tool will listen and ask you follow-up questions in context.

You can also get feedback from other real people and “branch” new, connected ideas. Makers can use BrainStory for thinking through product ideas or making marketing plans, but it can come in handy for fun stuff too, like D&D campaigns.

Try it out for your next brain freeze or brainstorm, and don’t forget to leave a review and let us all know how it went.
