I just had such an amazing conversation with @demishassabis about how AI works under the hood, the future of the technology, and how we ensure people can feel comfortable using it. Can’t wait to share it with you!
NVIDIA built an AI that makes up every single move for a video game character or a robot on the fly. It's called MotionBricks. Nobody animated any of this hand. Normally, an animator would need to create every one of these moves.
This is crazy. They figured out how to create threads that have touchscreen LEDs in them and have started weaving them directly into clothes. Now any piece of clothing can be a touchscreen display.
he Realbotix Echo is for uh... Hospitality use, clinics, and education... And I'm sure that's ALL they'll be used for.
Simulon 2.0 is pretty crazy. You place objects virtually in the physical space around you and then actually interact with them. @Simulon
These guys built the speeder bike from Return of the Jedi in real-life. Now this is not super new. However, they are actually getting ready to sell them now so, soon, anyone (with an extra $880k lying around) could grab one.
Sharing because it feels like an awesome opportunity for someone and maybe someone in my network is the perfect fit...
Looking for a developer (who happens to be great at comms) to lead comms for the Claude developer platform:

Here's a world model similar to Genie 4 that's actually open-source and available to test right now...
Came across these glasses yesterday from SubVocal and, since I'm making videos about the closest stuff I've come across, I made a quick video about them.
More details for the interested: nitter.gq/AarushYadav47/status/2…
We’ve raised $1.3M from YC & Afore Capital so you never have to type or speak again.
Typing is slow. Talking into your computer is awkward. Subvocal fixes both
Our glasses give you the speed of speech without you making a sound or touching a keyboard.
It tracks your internal speech muscles with non-contact sensing and decodes silent, almost invisible mouthing into text at more than 200 words/min.
Pre-orders are now live at:

When a humanoid robot and drone become best friends.
This isn't super new but I thought it was pretty cool.
In my latest YouTube video, I sat down with @nateherk and asked him to breakdown 3 of his favorite AI workflows. He explained how AI edits his videos, how he's built an automated IG account, and, my favorite, he shared his Roast Room.
If you haven't seen my video with @bilawalsidhu about God's Eye View, definitely check it out.
Here's my 9th video in 14-days (trying to post 15 over 30-days to meet X's video kickstart requirements). For some reason, the backend shows I've only posted 5. 🤷♂️
Google's latest model (which is announced but not publicly available yet) just jumped into the lead. Everyone talks about Google dropping the ball. I keep saying over and over again, never count out Google.
Introducing Gemini 4 Carbon, it's a big jump over Argon which we released just 2 weeks ago.
Gemini 4 Carbon is SOTA on cyber, long horizon tasks, ranks #1 on Artificial Analysis V5, significantly improves on usability in domains like coding, and is more aligned.
Genie 4 is pretty impressive. I find the visuals to be very realistic and high-quality. The ability to prompt anything into the world and have it just appear opens up all sorts of possibilities to steer a scene in whatever direction you want.
I found it really difficult to control the object on the screen, the monkey, the car, and the bi-plane all sort of ignored my attempts to steer them. There was also some temporal coherence issues where I'd turn around and face a different direction and then return to my original position and things would have changed. The Mustang, for instance, changed directions when I turned around. When it drove off later in the scene, it turned into a taxi... Little things like that change over time.
Visually, however, it's really impressive. (IMO)
This anti-drone drone is wild.
This is video 8 of 15 during my 15-videos in 30-days. Each video I'm testing letting AI do more and more on the edit. Ideally, over the next couple weeks, you'll see the videos improve.
I have a feeling Peter is going to get really popular and gain a lot of followers over night. :)
I’m joining the team at @X to lead Product.
I am a huge believer in @SpaceX's mission to extend human consciousness to the stars, so it’s time to make shitposting multiplanetary.
X is the best way to find out what’s happening in the world right now and talk about it. The team has been working tirelessly to make X a better place and product for the people who love it, and many have noticed the recent momentum. My goal is to help accelerate that momentum for our community, new users, and businesses globally by continuing to make this product beautiful and useful.
We are twenty years in, but it truly feels like X’s next chapter will be our greatest. I look forward to your ideas and feedback; I’m sure the replies will be measured and magnanimous.
