Ethan Mollick built an annotated Waste Land site with Claude, open sourced

emollick · x · 2026-09-23

Ethan Mollick shows AI as a tool beyond coding: he had Claude (Fable 5.1) build an annotated guide to Eliot's The Waste Land. The open-source site pairs the 1922 text and Eliot's notes with commentary on every section and multiple ways in — lenses on notes, sources, voices, languages, drafts and places, plus thematic pathways, a map of the poem's London, a listening room and a library of referenced texts. Repo: emollick/wasteland-annotated, built with a build.js pipeline deployable on Netlify.
