Live from Bangkok - 4 Mind-Blowing AI Use Cases from Our First Meetup

We're coming to you live from Bangkok after hosting our very first Create With AI meetup in Thailand - and it was absolutely incredible! The event sold out weeks in advance, and we got to see four amazing speakers showcase real-world AI applications they've built without traditional coding.

In this episode, James joins from Bangkok while Kieran dials in from Norwich to break down everything that happened at the event and discuss the latest developments in AI and no-code tools.

The 4 Bangkok Use Cases:

1. Instagram AI Agent for E-commerce (Jake)An automated system built in Make that responds to Instagram comments with full product knowledge - inventory, pricing, store locations, all in brand voice. Game-changing for e-commerce customer service.

2. Vacation Booking Platform (Stuart)A complete vacation booking system built with Claude Code that integrates with Airbnb's APIs. Stuart showed us how he's tapping into external platforms to create a full-featured booking dashboard.

3. Medical Lab Dashboard (Natt)This one blew our minds. Natt came from a biochemistry background and replaced 170 separate Google Forms with one unified dashboard using Xano + Claude Code. She showed us why separating your backend (Xano) from frontend (AI-generated) might be the secret sauce for non-coders building production apps.

4. Thailand's No-Code Movement (Opal)Opal runs a 10,000+ member Facebook group dedicated to no-code in Thailand, proving just how advanced and thriving the builder community is over there.

What Else We Cover:

The Xano + Claude Code strategy: Why building your data structure visually and letting AI handle the UI might be the winning approach for non-technical builders
AI Model Updates: Breaking down Gemini 3's Imagen breakthrough, Claude Opus 4.5's cost reduction, and why ChatGPT keeps confidently lying about dates
Design's Future: Insights from a 20-person design agency founder on whether AI will replace designers (spoiler: only the bad ones)
Vibe Coding Reality Check: What experienced developers actually think about AI coding tools and where they still fall short
Google's Project IDX: First impressions of the new "Anti-Gravity" code editor from the ex-Windsurf team
Codex vs Claude Code vs Cursor: What we're actually using day-to-day and why
Community Spotlight: TechFoundHer's new "We Build" program aiming to get 150 women into building tech ventures
