Powerful Websites: April 16, 2026


Happy Thursday,

Since a lot of websites are now becoming AI powered, I've decided to try out a new format for the newsletter. Instead of featuring just websites, I will now try and cover anything that could bring value to whatever it is you are building.

This new format aims to replace the old powerful websites structure to showcase the latest news, product launches, and even chatgpt prompts. What do you think?

IN THIS EMAIL

• The AI model too dangerous to release

• Apply to any job in under a minute

• Turn Google reviews into a live website

• 3 job-hunting prompts worth copy-pasting


📰 THIS WEEK'S RABBIT HOLE

The AI Model Too Dangerous to Release

Anthropic's new model Mythos found and chained zero-day vulnerabilities across every major operating system and browser during internal testing. Not a theoretical risk. The model actually did it.

Instead of a public launch, Anthropic created Project Glasswing: a closed preview limited to AWS, Apple, Google, JPMorgan, Microsoft, and NVIDIA. Everyone else waits.

This is the first time a major AI lab has looked at its own model and said "the internet isn't ready for this." That's a different kind of safety conversation than we've been having. Not hypothetical harm. Demonstrated capability.

🎥 VIDEO YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED

How to Apply to Any Job in 1 Minute

Tailoring a resume for each job takes 30 minutes if you do it properly. Robin compresses that to about a minute. It's a Chrome extension: save any job posting, it extracts the key requirements, compares them against your resume, and highlights what's missing.

Then it generates rewritten bullets that match the role. You accept or dismiss each suggestion with one click, download the tailored PDF, and apply. One master resume that adapts to every job. I walked through the full flow in a short.

🛠 TOOL OF THE WEEK

Brila: Google Reviews to Website in 30 Seconds

Brila takes a Google Maps business URL and builds a one-page website from the reviews and photos attached to that listing. Hero section, testimonials, photo gallery, contact info. #1 on Product Hunt's April leaderboard.

The use case is obvious: millions of small businesses have hundreds of five-star reviews and no website. The reviews already describe what the business does and why it's good. Brila just turns that into a page.

This sits in the same space as Carrd and Linktree but with a different angle. Instead of starting from a blank template, you start from data you've already earned.

⚡ PROMPTS TO TRY TODAY

3 Job-Hunting Prompts Worth Copy-Pasting

Most people type a basic question into ChatGPT, get a generic answer, and assume the tool isn't that useful. The problem is almost never the model. It's the prompt. Vague input, vague output.

These three prompts are specific enough to get useful results on the first try. Each one is built for job hunting. Copy, paste, replace the brackets with your info.

Prompt 1: ATS resume rewriter

You are an ATS optimization expert. Below is [JOB_DESCRIPTION] and [YOUR_RESUME]. Rewrite my resume bullets so they mirror the language and keywords from the job description without lying about my experience. Return 5-7 bullets per role, each starting with a strong verb, each containing at least one keyword from the job description. Flag any gaps where my background genuinely doesn't match so I can address them in the cover letter.

Rewrites your bullets to match the exact keywords an ATS is scanning for. Flags real gaps instead of hiding them.

Prompt 2: Cover letter hook generator

Given [COMPANY] and [YOUR_BACKGROUND], write three 2-sentence cover letter openers. No cliches, no "I am writing to express." Each one should hook a hiring manager by connecting a specific thing about the company (product, mission, recent launch) to a specific thing I've done. Punchy, human, no corporate voice.

Three openers that connect something specific about the company to something specific about you. No "I am writing to express my interest" energy.

Prompt 3: Mock recruiter screen

Simulate a 15-minute first-round recruiter screen for [ROLE] at [COMPANY]. Ask me one question at a time. Wait for my answer before asking the next. Push back on vague or generic answers the way a real recruiter would, and follow up on anything I dodge. At the end, give me a verdict: would you advance me to the hiring manager, and why or why not.

Asks one question at a time, pushes back on vague answers, and gives you a pass/fail verdict at the end. Good prep before a real screen.


Cheers,

Rj
