This graph is misleading. It shows the number of tokens processed by OpenRouter per day and per model, not consumer usage. Students usually wouldn't be using OpenRouter, they'd be using the LLM provider's website directly and the telemetry would not be captured by OpenRouter.

Lovely to see a Music Thing Workshop System (the little black box on the drum on the left) out in the world, in such an interesting creative environment

This list by @tomwhitwell.bsky.social is fantastic, a brilliant read. No.25 reminds us of the famous photo of Amartya Sen on a bike and links to capabilities. No.35 we fully appreciate as teachers! 🤣 Will think about this when marking mock exams in January. #EconSky open.spotify.com/episode/2r9f...
