Jack Dorsey AI Tool: Decentralized, Open-Source AI Just Dropped

Jack Dorsey built a free, open-source AI software builder that runs entirely on your device

Goose is a free, open-source AI tool from Jack Dorsey that takes a plain-English request like “build me a website like YouTube” and autonomously creates the full project—writing the code, installing dependencies, fixing errors, and iterating until it works. It runs entirely locally on your device: no subscription, no cloud, no code leaves your machine.

The honest caveat: it still requires API keys for the underlying models, so it's not completely free in practice. But for anyone who's been paying for a hosted coding assistant, Goose is an open-source alternative worth comparing.

• Fully local: your code never leaves your machine, with no telemetry, cloud sync, or vendor lock-in.
• “Free” means no subscription to Goose itself, not zero cost to run—factor in your model API usage.
• Dorsey backing an open-source AI coding tool is a direct counter to the closed-source, subscription-first model most competitors use.

Anthropic faces a class-action lawsuit over Claude Max usage limits

A class-action lawsuit filed against Anthropic in the Northern District of California alleges that its Claude Max subscription plans deliver significantly less usage than advertised. Anthropic markets Max 5x and Max 20x (at $100 and $200 per month) as offering five and twenty times the usage of the Claude Pro plan; the complaint alleges that, in practice, Max 20x delivers roughly six to eight times Pro's usage, and Max 5x delivers roughly three-and-a-half times, rather than the advertised multipliers.

The plaintiff says he hit weekly usage caps quickly after upgrading, including a single five-hour session that consumed 15% of his weekly allocation. The suit also challenges Anthropic's framing of Max 20x as a “50% savings” over Max 5x. Anthropic has declined to comment publicly on the case.

• The core of the complaint is a specific numerical gap between advertised and delivered usage multipliers, not a general quality complaint.
• Anthropic's own pricing and help pages describe the multipliers while also noting that weekly limits and other caps by model or feature apply—the lawsuit argues that distinction wasn't made clear enough to consumers.
• A motion-to-dismiss hearing has reportedly been scheduled for later this year.

A 17-year-old built an AI parody site that drew 25 million visitors in about a month

Mihir Maroju, 17, from India, built a site that attracted roughly 25 million unique visitors and nearly 280 million total hits in about a month. The concept: a “Human” tab sends your prompt to a real person who answers in character as an AI within 60 seconds, while a “Larp as AI” tab lets you be the AI yourself and earn credits. The result is a chaotic, funny mirror of modern AI chatbots: fake refusals, confident hallucinations, and awkward human responses dressed up as machine output.

• 25 million unique visitors and 280 million total hits in one month, built by a single teenager with no team and no budget.
• The “Human” tab has a 60-second response limit—real people are answering prompts in character as AI in under a minute.
• It went viral largely because it's an accurate, funny parody of how AI chatbots actually feel to use.

Telegram is giving away $200,000 to creators making videos about digital freedom

Pavel Durov announced a $200,000 creator contest: make a video promoting digital freedom, get 10,000+ organic views on X, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, or Snapchat, and you're eligible to share the prize pool. The contest doesn't require mentioning Telegram in the video at all.

• Open globally, with no requirement to mention Telegram—10,000 organic views on any major platform qualifies you.
• Digital-freedom content is already popular on X and YouTube; this gives existing creators a financial incentive to make more of it.
• For Telegram, $200K distributed across winning videos is a relatively cheap brand campaign; for creators, it's real money for content they might make anyway.
