Show HN: Animus – Interactive Workbooks
TLDR: make interactive worksheets based on an image of your textbook or a prompt.
This was a quick experiment I found myself doing after I found myself using ChatGPT with images from a workbook to help with some language study. I though it should be possible to have the LLM make an entire interactive worksheet for me, and it can... kind of.
I found this hit some of the edge cases of LLMs: they're so useful when you can use them in a "lossy" manner, but if the LLM generates a worksheet that's just a little off, or imports the wrong library, it all falls apart. e.g. I made a little demo video, and you can see the LLM felt a badge/chip would be a good way to display feedback this time, with amusing results:

With more time I'd probably change it to be more of a interactive tool: a la Claude, let the user interact with the LLM to progressively build the desired workflow and edit the result. With the right sort of "form language" I think it could be genuinely useful... but that's not where it is today!
It's not my best work, but I thought it was a fun experiment and wanted to share!
