Topics: Personalized Spanish practice for intermediate learners.

Anyone who’s seriously tried to learn a language knows Duolingo can’t take you very far beyond A1, so I’m glad to see Topics is focusing on gamifying the (much trickier) intermediate stage. The app currently only supports Spanish and the free practice texts are limited, but I think the overall concept of presenting readers with narrated, level-appropriate blurbs is pretty good. But what's really missing for a lot of plateaued intermediate learners is intense speaking and writing practice — neither of which the app currently targets.

With: 200+ curated questions designed to deepen emotional intimacy and self-awareness.

With is far from the first party game question app, but its beautiful, pared-down UI stands out. The questions are incisive, maybe even a bit invasive (“Is there a part of your personality you dislike or feel ashamed of?”), which probably makes the app a good choice for a date night or evening with a close friend. I’ll be curious to see how often the makers update the questions — it would be nice to have different options depending on who you’re playing with.

Have you ever wished you could create an app just by explaining your idea? With LlamaCoder, that's now possible. Developed by Together AI and powered by the Llama 3.1 405B model, LlamaCoder is an open-source web app that turns your prompts into fully functional applications.

Together AI is all about making AI accessible and useful. They help developers and businesses design and manage AI projects using open-source models like Llama. To show what Llama 3.1 405B can do, they built LlamaCoder—a tool that's quickly becoming popular in the developer community.

Since its launch just over a month ago, LlamaCoder has really taken off. It's earned over 2,000 stars on GitHub, and hundreds of developers have cloned the repository. People have generated more than 200,000 apps using the platform.

Imagine logging into a social network where every post you share gets a response—but all from AI followers. SocialAI offers just that: a personal and private social experience where millions of AI-generated users engage with your content. It's like having your own exclusive community that interacts with you without any of the unpredictability that sometimes comes with real-life social media.

While traditional platforms connect you with friends, family, and acquaintances, SocialAI offers a different approach. It creates a "social" internet without humans, allowing you to simulate interactions as if you were engaging with real people but without the complicated, and unpredictable parts of human interactions.

As Chris Messina puts it: "Imagine that you have no friends, but you also use the internet. What if you could build a 'social' internet without humans where you could simulate interactions as if you were interacting with real humans?"
