Every week, I organize 400 to 700 links into roughly 60 categories as part of my ongoing effort to learn about AI. This is my personal notebook, which I enjoy sharing with friends… a hobby and a labor of love, rather than a commercial publication or product.

If you arrived here through a search or shared link, this page collects the links I found for World Models for the week ending August 21, 2026.

As part of my learning process, I like to automate the category covers. It gives me a chance to learn Python and APIs.

This week’s cover prompt was written using Claude Opus 4.7, and the image was generated using Nano Banana 2.1.

Category Cover Image Prompt: Realistic architectural photograph of a 1929 Chicago Art Deco limestone skyscraper on a sunny day with a deep blue sky, viewed from across the street with perspective-corrected verticals, where a stylized engaged Deco herm carved from the same honey-cream Indiana limestone emerges from a setback pier and cradles a carved stone sphere wrapped in miniature relief mountains, rivers, and a tiny skyline, with a crisp incised frieze beneath reading WORLD MODELS in Art Deco inscription capitals, flanked by dark steel-framed windows and receding setbacks, raking sunlight casting sharp shadows in the carving.

Just one story this week, so there’s no summary this time… it’s right below.
