This weekend I undertook my first tangible AI project that actually created something maybe kinda interesting.
This project was inspired by the Western Mass Bitcoin Meetup (nprofile…4j8q) Book Club - we are currently reading the Fourth Turning.
https://reedbtc.github.io/politigen/
I created this using Claude Sonet 4.6 with the $20/month plan. No agents. I have zero coding experience and I've never used AI to build any code. I started yesterday morning and just finished what I would consider the first functional draft. I hit my token limit once, but I just took a 4 hour break (which was kind of nice actually).
After I hit my limit, I started figuring out (asking) how to do things more efficiently and never hit it again. I'm currently at 35% of my weekly limit.
