    You can now make your own Higgsfield? 👀😮

    Higgsfield says it open-sourced its 5.4 billion dollar app. It's fake. We went into the GitHub and all you get is a thin UI that calls their paid API. No weights, no training, no way to build anything without paying them. We break down what they actually released and how creator networks make a launch like this look organic. Then a miracle: Neuralink restored speech for a man who lost it to ALS, and we show him talking to his wife by thought alone. And Figure's Helix 2.5 sends robots into 30 homes they have never seen to make beds and fold laundry, impressive, slow, and it raises the question of who pays when one throws out your jewellery.

    Create UNLIMITED Camera Angles with AI 🤯

    You can now shoot one angle and generate the rest. AI multicam turns a single talking-head recording into side shots, close-ups, overheads and drone moves with Seedance 2.5, and we break down how creators are doing it, the two-camera trick that stops close-ups from morphing, and how much AI footage you can blend in before people notice. Then the letter that had Sam Altman and Elon Musk agreeing with Dario Amodei for the first time: We Must Pace the Frontier. We explain what it proposes, why Trump and David Sacks pushed back, and whether this is about safety or market share. Try invideo Agent 2: https://invideo.io/ 🔥 Ready to level up with AI?

    We used GPT-6 + Blender & Unreal Engine to recreate a HOUSE Listing in 3D 🚀

    We spent 48 hours training GPT-6 Astra to make motion graphics in After Effects, and then had it recreate Higgsfield and Iman Gadzi style animations from scratch, with pre-training and post-training versions side by side so you can see what it took. Then we took a real Zillow listing and had Astra read the floor plan and rebuild the house in Blender and Unreal Engine. We show three community projects, a robot that paints, a Blender-built web game, and an interactive bookshelf site, before the debate we could not avoid: the singularity, and what the next two years do to every digital job.

    GPT-6 Astra just stole my job? 🤯

    GPT-6 Astra is out, and it is the first frontier model to put 3D front and centre. We got access two hours before the show, so we photographed a building across the street on an iPhone, gave Astra one short prompt, and watched it take over the computer and rebuild the whole block in Blender, ornaments, street signs and all, with zero iterations. Then it edited the screen recording too. The second half is the conversation we had to have: if Astra can do anything you can do on a computer faster, what happens to specialists, and do we actually have more time now or less? Sources: 1.

    NVDIA DLSS 5: Game Changer or SLOP?

    Matt Workman, creative technologist at fal, joins us to break down H3 Max, the model that makes 15 second AI videos in 5 seconds, and fal.live, a livestream where viewers prompt what happens next in real time. We get into how DLSS 5 actually works before its release with NBA 2K27, why the leaked GTA footage looked wrong, and the new wave of world models from Runway and World Labs that turn a photo into an explorable 3D space. Then Matt gives an inside view of what major studios are quietly doing with AI, how directors use it, and why it is getting hard to get hired without it.

    This is the FASTEST AI Video model [MINMAX H3 MAX]

    AI video had a speed problem. The best paid models take a minute or two per clip, and running one free on our own machine took us 20 minutes. Now there is a version that makes a 15 second clip in about five seconds, and we tested it against real Seedance shots using their exact prompts. Then ZAI released a model that autonomously built a full 3D kitchen inside Blender over 16 hours, though we have questions. And Hugging Face put out a $399 open source robot you can train yourself.

    Seedance 2.5 vs FREE Local AI Video model 🤯

    OpenAI announced an ultra fast mode for GPT Sol 5.6 running at 14 times the speed, and the benchmark numbers are hard to believe. Then the main event: Higgsfield open-sourced the prompts and references behind their two million dollar AI feature film, so we took those exact shots and recreated them on a free model running locally on our own computer, using a platform we built ourselves. The results genuinely surprised us. And SpaceX AI dropped Grok 4.6 plus Grokbot, autonomous agents that run 24/7 even when your PC is off. Sources: 1.

    NEW AI + 3D Model RESULTS are Unreal 🤯

    For years the objection to AI 3D was that it could not make clean, production-ready topology. That objection is falling fast, and we show the wireframes to prove it. In a surprise move, Kitbash and Greyscale Gorilla just bought Sketchfab and ArtStation from Epic Games. We tested Grok Imagine 2.0's precise image editing live and asked whether Photoshop is still necessary. And Meta dropped Muse Glimmer, a free open-weight model that runs on a single GPU. Sources: 1.
