Stop asking AI to just "write code."

I just found a tool that gives you a virtual computer to do the actual work for you right inside the chat.

It builds apps, summarizes files, and makes PPTs, it even gives you a game to play while it works.

Here’s why this is different:

Meet @mulerun_ai : With just a few conversations, you can create your own AI assistant. No deployment or privacy permissions are required.

It gives you a "Virtual Machine" (VM) with its own browser and file system. It doesn't just "answer", it actually opens tabs and finishes the job for you.

Check it out here: mulerun.com/chat

1) Website: I asked it to create a online store.

Instead of a wall of code, a window popped up inside the chat.

I watched the AI open a code editor, write the script, and launch the site in a real browser. No copy-pasting required, it was just there and working.

BCG charges $500,000 for a 3-month strategy "sprint."

Claude Opus 4.6 just did it for the price of a sandwich.

I used the new 1M context window and "Adaptive Thinking" to build a full GTM roadmap in under 15 minutes.

Here are 15 prompts that make elite consultants nervous:

The "1M Token" Data Analysis

Stop feeding AI snippets. Opus 4.6 can digest 1,000,000 tokens (an entire library of data).

The Play: Upload your last 3 years of P&L, 500+ customer interview transcripts, and every competitor whitepaper. Prompt: "Analyze this 800k-token dataset. Find the 'Ghost Trend', the specific customer need that is rising in the data but hasn't been mentioned in a single competitor marketing campaign yet."

The "BCG Matrix" 2.0

Adaptive Growth Strategy. Prompt: "Perform a 2026-ready BCG Matrix analysis on our product portfolio. Don't just label 'Stars' and 'Dogs', use the current inflation and AI-disruption data to predict which 'Star' will become a 'Dog' by 2027 if we don't pivot."

The interview is over. The recruiter asks: "Do you have any questions for us?"

You say: "What’s the culture like?" or "When will I hear back?"

The recruiter’s brain: Standard. Forgettable. Just like the last five people.

You just missed your biggest chance to close the deal. Say this instead:

The "Power Shift" Phenomenon

The last five minutes of an interview are where the "Vibe" is cemented. If you ask generic questions, you look like a "Job Seeker." If you ask strategic questions, you look like a "Partner." You want them to leave the room thinking, "We need to convince THEM to join US."

The "Recruiter's Fatigue"

Recruiters hear "What’s a typical day look like?" 50 times a week. It’s a low-energy question that requires a canned response. To go viral in their mind, you must break the pattern. You need to ask questions that make them pause, think, and respect your perspective.

The recruiter starts the interview: "So, tell me about yourself."

You start with: "Well, I was born in..." or "As you can see on my resume..."

The recruiter's brain: Zoned out. Bored. Checking their watch.

You just lost the "First Impression" battle. Say this instead:

The "Tell Me About Yourself" Myth

Most candidates think this is an icebreaker to "warm up." It’s actually the most important 90 seconds of the interview. It sets the Narrative Anchor. If you ramble, you are labeled "unstructured." If you are concise and value-driven, you are labeled "leader."

The "Recruiter's Secret" Agenda

When they ask this, they aren't looking for a biography. They are looking for the answer to a single question: "Why are you the solution to the specific problem I have right now?" Your answer shouldn't be about your life; it should be about your Product-Market Fit.

Final interview.
They ask: “Are you willing to relocate or travel 50% of the time?”
Your mind blanks.

You say: “Yes, absolutely! I love traveling!”
Interview ends. No offer.

Here’s what they actually want…

The "Enthusiasm" Trap

In 2026, being "too eager" to travel is a red flag. It suggests you don't have a stable "Operating Base" or that you’re looking for a paid vacation. High-performers value their time. If you don't protect your schedule, the recruiter assumes you won't protect the company's resources either.

The Psychology of "Intentional Presence"

The recruiter isn't looking for a nomad; they’re looking for a Closer. They want to know: "Is this person willing to show up when the stakes are high enough to justify the cost?" You need to pivot from "Availability" to "Impact."

Your phone isn't "accidentally" listening to you. It's a feature, not a bug.

I talked about a specific dog food brand once 10 minutes later, I had an ad. It’s called "Shadow-Logging," and it’s happening through 5 settings you’ve never touched.

Here is how to kill the eavesdropping for good:

The Illusion of Silence

Most people think "Hey Siri" or "OK Google" only works when you say the phrase. In reality, the hardware is in a "low-power listening state" 24/7. To process the wake word, it has to analyze everything else first.

The "Microphone Ghost"

Ever notice a tiny orange or green dot at the top of your screen? That’s your hardware telling you the mic is live. But by then, the data packet has often already been sent. Let’s dive into the settings to kill the source.
