As much as everyone loves to hate AI, it just helped me create a family portal complete with Calendar, To Do lists, ChoreQuest RPG game, Shopping List, Public Notes, Private Journals, Private (family) messaging, a media center for browsing cartoons (via Emby's API - which I have no idea how to use but AI seems to "know" the ins and outs of it) and reading comics/manga (Komga), 3 different themes and a dashboard that holds it all together.

It took less than a week to complete using free tier AI (Grok, Claude and ChatGPT), it's cost $0 to make, $0 for hosting (thanks again AI for showing me how to get it up for free) and about $35 AUD for a cool sounding domain name.

The kids love messaging each other, my youngest is now eager to do chores because I gamified it, and I have a way of organizing everything where it's synced but Google isn't trying to push ads based on my families schedule.

If this is what our AI overlords bring us, I welcome them.  /s

On a separate - maybe somewhat hypocritical - note ...  I can usually identify AI writing, art and music and I hate it all - it's uniformly terrible!  Curious if programmers see AI code and just think it's poorly done, because that's how I feel about AI and the arts (I just googled it and was not at all surprised by the answer).
