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 Mobile for the week ending September 4, 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: Vertical psychedelic screen-print gig poster of a hand holding a smartphone whose glowing screen melts into swirling op-art ripples of chat bubbles, app icons, and neural pathways spiraling outward, ornate border of falling autumn leaves and tiny jack-o-lanterns, flat ink layers in electric magenta, acid orange, deep teal, and lime green on cream paper stock with slight registration offset, bold hand-lettered word 'Mobile' arcing across the top in 1960s Fillmore-era psychedelic lettering that bends with the artwork while staying clearly legible.

Summary by Claude Sonnet 5.5 based on this week’s links:
Two posts showed a bullet-time style effect built from just a few iPhones. One creator used three iPhones with Atlas to generate a smooth camera path between each pair of cameras, then layered in AI-generated beats.
Bilawal Sidhu said four iPhones were enough for free viewpoint video, something that used to need a rig with dozens or hundreds of cameras. The results are offline renders for now, and he hopes real-time playback comes next.
This summary was generated by Claude Sonnet 5.5 to help you explore the links below. Rest assured, I select, organize, and check the links by hand in Google Sheets, and write the introduction and personal commentary in The Main Newsletters myself each week as a labor of love.

One cool use for Atlas is creating “bullet time”-style effects using only a few cameras. In this case, I was able to use 3 iPhones + my finely honed juggling skillz to synthesize a smooth camera trajectory between each pair of cameras. Also I layered in an AI-generated beats

Free viewpoint video with 4x iphones is genuinely nuts. This used to need a volumetric capture rig with dozens if not hundreds of cameras. Offline renders are just the start. Can’t wait till we can playback dynamic 3d content like this in real time.
