Mary Meeker and the Bond team have released their latest 300+ page annual report, this time all on AI
It's very good but long, so I've summarized the Top 10 Points for B2B and enterprise founders here:

4/ Solving the infinite video problem. Most video DiT models (Sora, Runway, etc) experience quality degradation after multiple autoregressive extensions due to accumulation of generation errors. We developed a temporal consistency preservation technique that maintains coherence across long (multi-minute) sequences.

3/ Making it fast. We trained a custom video diffusion transformer (DiT) from scratch optimized for speed. After training our base model, we implemented student-teacher distillation to increase speed to 25fps with limited quality loss.

Introducing Lemon Slice Live:
the first real-time audio-video AI model
Anyone can video chat with any character by just uploading a single photo. Every pixel on the screen is rendered at 25fps in real-time by a transformer model.
Here’s how we built it + a live demo! 👇

The process leading to Alzheimer's disease takes about 20 years to develop, giving more than ample opportunity to identify high-risk individuals and change the natural history. Discussed in the new Ground Truths (link in profile) and in this week's @ScienceMagazine

This list blows my mind - and just showcases how backward the health industry is - spending hundreds of millions on an antiquated system that makes data entry clerks out of HCP's is madness - A list of how much 8 health systems are paying for EHRs buff.ly/3UbOe6G

60 Minutes featured the astonishing work being done with MRI and focused ultrasound to treat both neuro-degenerative disease and severe addiction. Watch the video linked below.
It's this work, +1M other papers in the field that drove me both found and now to fully open-source our work at Openwater this month. We have low-cost focused ultrasound and blood/oxygen flow detection units coming on line now and could enable access to all including at-home treatments in the near-future.
