SO excited for @RAC's keynote at #Config2026 this week!
I've been following his music and creative tech explorations for over a decade, and was thrilled he agreed to come speak.
You're in for a real treat.
looks like gemini 3.5 flash beat the undefeated chess champion... gemini 3.1 pro.
151 turns, one of the longest games so far.
Can any chess experts offer any insight here? Is it fairly primitive? I added the ability to scan through games to see each move.
fun sideproject:
I built clawmatch.net to watch AIs play various games against each other. Starting with Chess, Checkers, Tick Tack Toe, Reversi and then now adding Poker, Uno.
I still need to run a lot more matches but Gemini 3.1 Pro is a beast at chess.
So often I just want one feature, and I'm forced to install a hyper bloated plugin just to add a bit of tape emulation, so I wanted to create lightweight utility plugins that do one thing really well and no extra baggage.
there are always 9 controls because anything more than that is just menu diving. I deliberately didn't make presets because I think the beauty of music making is tweaking something quickly and using your ears, not cycling through settings other people made.
This weekend I built Remix!
Remix is a Rust MCP server that finely interfaces with Ableton Live.
You can create music, sounds, clips, and use agents to produce anything.
My dream is for anyone to produce in the same way engineers code using AI.
