AI is already great at figuring out patterns and pulling them back out. The goal is to use this skill to give helpful answers when we’re not sure what we mean or don’t have much context. The hurdle is making sure the information we give it is good, not just the model’s ability.

Can Genie 3 run Doom? "Doom, but the walls are made entirely out of screens also running Doom, featuring the marine from Doom but also his head is a screen running Doom"

“Pixie dusting” refers to the practice of adding minuscule, non-clinical amounts of popular ingredients solely for the sake of labeling.

A new set of preprocessor template workflows for core conditioning steps in ComfyUI: Depth, Lineart, Pose, Normals, and Frame Interpolation (great for smoothing 16fps outputs). Designed for consistency, reuse, and faster iteration across image & video workflows.

btw this is a good example of what i meant with "reflexively" reaching for AI. You tinker with AI for a while, and you just reach for this. This was an obvious thing to try when I saw I needed to use windows and was on my mac. You want to train your brain on this intuition.

My annual MRI scan gives me a USB stick with the data, but you need this commercial windows software to open it. Ran Claude on the stick and asked it to make me a html based viewer tool. This looks... way better.

I am in complete shock by the design of @Grokipedia. Grok wrote a 10,000 word article about my career. It was 95% accurate. But it got one big thing wrong. It said I got divorced. Truth is, I was never married. Instead of begging an anonymous editor to correct this, I

Today we’re introducing Scribe v2: the most accurate transcription model ever released. While Scribe v2 Realtime is optimized for ultra low latency and agents use cases, Scribe v2 is built for batch transcription, subtitling, and captioning at scale.

Niji V7 is now live. This model features improved anime coherence, prompt understanding, text rendering, and sref performance. Enjoy!

It's time to build.

Stop everything — Higgsfield just dropped another insane video feature, and as always, it goes incredibly hard.

@naval Truth spreads when it surprises you. If it does not challenge your beliefs or contradict what you think you know, it stays invisible. When a fact forces a mental reset, it turns into wisdom. That effect works mainly on people who care about learning. Others filter it out early.

The reduction in screen time with these AI IDEs is truly remarkable.
