A nearly 20-year-old Nokia with just 8 MB of memory is now being used to access Claude. 🤯📱 Developer Emir Karşıyakalı created a Java ME client that allows the 2007-era phone to communicate with Claude through a lightweight server and Anthropic’s API. Because the Nokia is far too old to handle modern web security and AI processing on its own, the server takes care of the heavy lifting. It works around the phone’s outdated TLS 1.0 connection, communicates with Claude, and then sends the responses back to the device. So no, Claude isn’t actually running on the Nokia’s 8 MB of RAM. The phone is essentially acting as the interface, while the AI model itself runs remotely in the cloud. Emir has also reportedly been reverse-engineering the phone’s firmware over the past few days, hoping to eventually get past the Java layer and interact with the system more directly. There’s something pretty fascinating about connecting one of today’s most advanced AI models to a phone that was release...
