The Content in the website were all hand made by me with the audio coming from a real japanese native.
You have nothing on the website that entices the user to start a free trial, no pricing, no examples, you listed backed by research of yale usc but there are no links to said research, this looks like AI Slop at best; Scam at worst.
4.8 star global App Store rating except is not listed on any apps stores is it?

Did Phoenix not require npm at some point or is that not true?
At the beginning, but not anymore. You still have the option to pull libraries and packages but is not really required by default.

Who knows, may be you are right here. I actually thought so at first, but knowing the author personally (he is my former colleague, I had the pleasure of working with him in the same team about 17-18 years ago), his extraordinary abilities and his writing style even before the widespread use of AI, I had my doubts.
I'm sorry but this has all the earmarks of being AI generated, at the very least the website and all the project documentation; and "Trust me I worked with him 2 decades ago, is a very poor argument to inspire confidence"

Who would publicly admit this, and even publicly talk about something this personal in this way?
It's like the internet has made "attention whoring" the centre of our economy.

Oh, I forgot. I’ll attach the video.

I should update the landing page too.
The landing page has nothing to explain what this does and the video doesn't really help much, what is this? what problems does it solve? why?
Right now this just feels like AI slop, and as other users have highlighted you will get no traffic / sign ins

Can we stop pretending like the are not serious tribalization, polarization and problems on both left and right. Both sides are insane and there is no longer any people in the center.
In particular the quip that it's really just a "bullshit generator" is 100% correct. But also true for, y'know, all the intelligent humans on the planet.
At the end of the day AI gets stuff wrong, as far as we can tell, for basically the same reasons that we get stuff wrong. We both infer from intuition to make our statements about life, and bolt "reasoning" and "logic" on as after the fact optimizations that need to be trained as skills.
(I'm a lot more sympathetic to the free software angle, btw. The fact that all these models live and grow only within extremely-well-funded private enclosures is for sure going to have some very bad externalities as the technology matures.)
