WORTH TESTING
Worth an hour
of your time.
The AI videos and launches worth testing, boiled down to small hands-on steps, with the cost and an honest caveat for each. Newest first.
Thursday
Mike Futia: from Shopify reviews to Meta ad angles, inside ScaleBot
A plug for his own product; only two review apps are shown and imports cap at 250 reviews.
Claude for Legal: a regulatory horizon scan in a few clicks
A polished promo: the legal integrations appear only as logos, the search step is skipped and 'securely deployed' isn't explained.
Wednesday
Mike Futia's ScaleBot Ad Spy: reading competitors' Meta ads
A sales demo for his own product; spend and reach figures are estimates that can't be verified.
Andrej Karpathy at Sequoia's AI Ascent: how to work with agents
The repost's 'Opus 5.5' and '99% automated' framing is false.
A Stanford lecture on 'more attempts plus a good checker'
The repost's '$3.4M agent' claim is unrelated clickbait.
Tuesday
Greg Isenberg and 'Boring Marketer': how to sell AI to Main Street businesses
The 18-minute pitch workflow is only on a slide, the pricing and client numbers are the guest's own, and it doubles as a pitch for his product.
Theo's tstack: the agent skills he uses to review and merge code
Advanced (coding and git needed); '27 of 32 PRs merged autonomously' is only shown on a dashboard, and there's a sponsor segment and a course plug.
Google's free Graph RAG agent codelab (reposted as a 'course')
The '$750,000 skill' course framing is the poster's, not Google's; it's a toy dataset.
Monday
Jake Dabrowski's Claude Code workflow for product videos (dropshipping)
No sales shown and it doubles as a coaching pitch.
A real Stanford lecture on LLMs and agents, wrapped in a fake '$100k agent' post
The post's '$100k agent' claims are not in the video, and it's the Fall 2025 course.
The 'ready-made Claude Code teams' clip: what it really shows
An ad, not a tutorial; the counts in the post aren't on screen.
Sunday
Lee Robinson's Stanford lecture: how always-on AI agents work
The speaker's identity comes from the slides and we couldn't confirm it independently; some claims (hallucinated tool calls 'mostly solved') come with no data.
Google's Agent102 lab: build a self-improving agent (not the '2-hour course' the post promises)
A re-upload, and a hands-on lab rather than the '2-hour course' the post promises; our notes cover only the first ~25 minutes.
HarnessRouter demo: one agent hands a data job to two specialist agents
Reads like a promo with no sponsorship disclosure, and the '99.8% lower cost' headline isn't shown.
Saturday
Mike Futia: a 'Yapper' talking-head UGC ad made with Seedance 2.5
A sales demo: 'almost one shot', then a clip fails and is retried.
Anthropic's Lydia Hallie on cutting Claude Code costs (the post's '65 agents in a loop' claim is false)
A re-upload with a false '65 agents in a loop' hook; the talk itself is official and excellent.
Cursor Cloud Agents webinar with Growth Engine X (don't trust the 'SpaceX AI engineer' framing)
The re-upload's 'SpaceX AI engineer' framing doesn't match what's on screen (a Cursor webinar), and about five bots are shown, not 35.
Friday
Tech With Tim: Claude Code builds a job-market tracker from 40,000+ Hacker News posts (sponsored by Databricks)
Sponsored by Databricks (disclosed), and a best-case run: no debugging shown and a jump cut hides processing time.
Anthropic's Jess Yan on building long-running agents (a manipulated re-upload: watch Peter Yang's original instead)
A manipulated re-upload (faces appear AI-generated, and the post's quote isn't in it); watch Peter Yang's original on YouTube.
Thursday
Greg Isenberg: getting your business ready for AI shopping agents (31-minute strategy talk)
The roadmap and startup ideas are his speculation; the checklist from 21:56 is the practical part.
Nidhi Singh: let Claude Code use Codex's computer use to drive Mac apps (includes a sponsored segment)
Includes a sponsored GoLogin segment (08:10-10:02); background mode is Mac-only and relies on an undocumented part of the ChatGPT app, so an update could break…
Claude Code + Obsidian: keep your agent's memory in a notes vault (likely a re-upload; credit @0xrux)
Likely a re-upload (credit @0xrux), and the '$100K a month' headline is his horse-training business revenue, not agent income.
Wednesday
ego(lite): let Claude Code browse websites for you (a polished vendor promo)
A polished vendor promo, possibly sponsored; the edit skips the messy part and it uses your logged-in sessions, so use a clean browser profile.
Mike Futia's ScaleBot MCP: 12 ad concepts and images from one chat (his own product)
His own product; the brand setup that makes it work isn't shown, and the app shown runs GPT-4o, not Claude Code.
Mistral's Voxtral 3 launch demo: a voice agent that copes with real conversation
An edited launch demo: the sub-second speed can't be checked and the web search it mentions isn't shown.
Tuesday
Boris Cherny on running dozens of agents at Anthropic (not a 'graph engineering' talk)
The post's '85% of our engineers' line is never said, and claims like an 8x rise in code output are his own and unproven.
The 'Anthropic engineer builds a harness in 10 minutes' video is a 2025 Claude Code keynote
It's a May 2025 keynote with a sped-up recording, not a live 10-minute harness build.
Greg Isenberg's 'one-person AI business' playbook: a decent idea, with big claims
What's shown is thin (one prompt and setup notes); '1,000+ millionaires' is opinion.
Monday
The viral "Andrew Ng graph engineering course" is really DeepLearning.AI's 2024 LangGraph course
Recorded in 2024, and the viral post's timestamps and chapters are made up; it's not a 'graph engineering' course.
Stripe's Head of Design on 'Zombie UI'
A sharp idea, not a tutorial: no tools or prompts, and only three real takeaways.
Sunday
Google Cloud: building agent workflows as graphs with ADK 2.0
Needs Python and the command line, not no-code.
An AI assistant SEO routine: research bot, writing skill and a human review
'Fully automated, never log in' is contradicted in the video itself (he says to QC everything and add personal experience); about 3 of 8.5 minutes is a sales…
