AI Hedge Fund Team
Imagine what you could accomplish in your retirement account if you had a team guiding your every trade.
That is what the AI Hedge Fund project is building as a proof of concept. You can select one of many famous asset managers and pipe that persona into a trade idea. All you need is a few API keys documented on the project README.md file.
If you are looking for ideas on how to build an end-to-end solution with AI agents this is a good project to check out.
Figma MCP Server For Cursor
Cursor can one-shot design ideas better when it can tap into Figma design data.
Figma-Context-MCP project on GitHub has amassed 2K stars over the last month. All you need is Cursor and a Figma API Key. Since most Figma files are huge, the developers recommend you to link to specific frames or group within the file before hitting your cursor agent with requests.
Here is the git repo if you want to try it out for yourself.
.gif RenAIssance
Google’s Gemini AI models are making a hit with 8-bit .gif art.
There have been a few examples pop up online over the last week showing one-shot success with vintage video game art. All you need to get this rolling on your laptop is Python and an API key for Google Gemini 2. Vibe coding games is the new rage and this might be your escape hatch for bespoke game assets.
Here is the GitHub gist you can use for reference.
Blender MCP
Everyone wants to build 3D games and one major bottleneck is the 3D art.
Blender is one way to build the art but it has a serious learning curve. Now with the power of AI and MCP you can prompt blender directly from your Cursor editor. The outputs are not perfect but if the speed of innovation keeps it’s pace 3D vibe code games are gonna explode.
Here is the git repo for setting up blender-mcp (6K stars).
Apple App Store Business Idea
Apple App Store has more credit cards on file than any other ecosystem.
I ran across that statistic while watching a video on local AI being a new way to print money from apps. Apparently the speech to text, text to speech and speech to speech models can be as small as 200mb. With a local model you don’t have to reach the internet to get it to work.
Without a backend server or API credits eating your profits what would you do with the extra cash?
Getting Attention Online (in a post AI world)
The way attention works online is shifting.
It's 2025 and most content is still written for humans instead of LLMs. 99.9% of attention is about to be LLM attention, not human attention.
~ Andrej Karpathy
That insight was given in the context of documentation for coding libraries but has massive implications for getting found online. Gartner estimates that 50% of organic search will shift to LLMs by 2028. Many business owners obsessed with SEO are ignoring the writing on the wall.
SEO is not LLM SEO.
$1,000,000 per year from AI games?
A new flight simulator game is printing it’s solo creator 7 figures annually.
The game is built with three.js. I see many people building AI games with three.js these days but non are monetizing like Pieter Levels. The monetization strategy here is build a free game that is addicting, get a ton of people on your servers, and sell advertisements in game.

Mentorship From The Internet
The hardest part about quitting your current path isn’t the lost income, it’s explaining your decision to people still walking that path who’ve deemed it “good enough.”

Every person I know who has optimized for money is less happy than those who have optimized for life.
