Grit Garden: https://grit.garden (https://github.com/pravj/wordle-garden)
Recently shipped this personal art project that turns daily Wordle attempts into gritty / struggle-filled stories, kinda similar to the emotional arc of the Wordle game play.
You can upload your own Wordle game screenshot to generate one for yourself.
In addition to completing what was once in the idea list, I got to learn about
- Prompt fine-tuning: Models are sharp enough to complete Wordle games quicker than human average scores, so I had to dump that down and get the average down.
- Karpathy’s Autoresearch: Experimented with auto-research for prompt fine-tuning, in addition to manual prompts.
- Vision models: While leading labs have multimodal models with quality visual reasoning, the benchmarks are still quite different for a simple Wordle analysis (reading what letters were yellow/gray/green); I also noticed labs/companies with separate vision models but their APIs lag significantly compared to what’s possible in developer experience.
- Video generation: For the last few days, I have been experimenting with automated video generation for the project's social handles. I'm still struggling with the right hooks that reduce the skip rates, but it's fun.

Additionally, working on an Apple Watch app similar to my Mac app on the same lines, [Plug That In](https://plugthat.in), i.e., notify before the device goes too low on battery, but with a twist.
