No pressure, right? 💻 Expect: Image generation mishaps (we're looking at you, furry eggs) UX chaos and jQuery throwbacks Brilliant moments of AI magic And a healthy dose of panic, laughter, and front-end sass They explore tools like ChatGPT, Cursor, Adobe Firefly and Perplexity—all while trying to make something user-friendly, vaguely cat-shaped, and surprisingly… it works? Whether you're here for the tech, the humour, or just to hear Tom slowly unravel, this episode is packed with all the fun and expertise you've come to expect from 3 Sided Cube's award-winning crew. 🐾 Try the result yourself: Purrsonamaker.com 🎥 Want to see Tom's descent into madness?
