Sharing something I built. You give it a historical topic, it researches it, writes a two‑host script, generates the audio and slides, and plays it. The interesting part to build was the interruption: you stop the episode, ask something, it answers in the hosts' voices using the episode's context, then splices back into the story. It's research‑grounded (pulls sources instead of free‑associating) and flags legend vs established fact, which matters a lot for history. Genuinely curious what pe...

There's no shortage of leaderboards for model capabilities - but the security of models is becoming increasingly relevant, from the risk of an AI agent processing unsanitized input being hijacked to models being pulled due to cybersecurity jailbreaks. We developed an automated test suite that runs models through 1500 automatically generated jailbreak attempts and measures the number of universal jailbreaks: prompts that elicit compliant, detailed responses to >75% clearly harmful questions withi...

I'm a filmmaker, and have been pretty frustrated by AI video editors that are focused on automating editing instead of helping artists produce their visions. Recently got curious about whether Claude could color grade my footage, and built Pico. Turns out Claude can (sometimes!) Please feel free to ask questions, try it on your own footage, or contribute to the project! Ask: if you are a researcher or hobbyist filmmaker, I'd love to chat with you to figure out how to make the models better at th...

Been watching this project develop over the past few weeks. It's a full scripted comedy episode — multiple characters, consistent performances across scenes, proper narrative structure. Not a single clip or a short — an actual 22-minute sitcom episode made entirely with AI. They've been documenting the process and it launches next week. The character consistency problem that everyone here says is unsolvable seems to have been largely cracked. Curious what people think when it drops. ...

A robot can be fast on average and still drift when the scene changes between planning steps. The camera catches a misplaced object. Someone steps into the workspace. The system has to decide whether to finish the imagined action or replan from reality. That recovery path matters more than one sampler throughput number. The LingBot-VA 2.0 design pairs foresight reasoning with regrounding when new observations arrive. Its headline number is more than a fourfold end to end speedup. Before treati...

LLMs are trained on human content, and their brains are modeled on ours. So it shouldn't be surprising that AIs respond to persuasive techniques that work on humans, such as appeals to authority, and liking (taking advantage of the fact that people will cooperate with those who flatter them.) According to a May 2026 study: "Our findings show that classic persuasion techniques can meaningfully increase LLM compliance with verboten requests (from 35.3 to 51.3%). Although current AI syste...

Hello, I am looking to create higher quality AI photos for my company using my product. I am using currently Gemini free. The photos are OK. I see so many brands using AI with better quality pictures and unique designs. What do you recommend for an app/tech stack for creating better images for ads/instagram that can transform my static product photos? Images like these: https://www.instagram.com/p/Dakx2nGIbEG/?hl=en How are folks creating these style of medical explainer videos? ...

Ran into this problem: a flat markdown file (or even a GraphRAG "brain") gives agents better context, but when a chain of actions fails, you cannot point to which stpe broke or what to fix. No explicability, a slow convergence, and no ceiling. So I modeled it as a partially observable MDP instead. States the agent can observe become nodes, actions become edges, and each edge is weighted by success probability, token cost, and outcome. The agent explores to complete the graph, then ex...

Just realized we have no idea how many AI agents are actually running in our environment right now. Started trying to count them and gave up. Service accounts I can track. API keys, sort of. But agents that spin up, do something, and disappear? No idea. Anyone else just kind of winging it at this point?

This resurfaced this week (some are calling it “AI book burning”), and I think the legal angle is more interesting than the outrage framing, so here's a neutral breakdown. What's documented: To build a training corpus, Anthropic bought millions of physical print books and “destructively scanned” them — cutting off the bindings, scanning the pages, and discarding the physical copies. It even hired someone who'd previously worked on Google's book-scanning program to acquire books at scale. The...

I’ve been following Higgsfield for a while, and after reading their updated Terms of Service, I’m honestly not a fan of the direction they’re taking. I make longer AI films, so this stuff is not theoretical for me. I regularly upload character references, unfinished scenes, original prompts and material that hasn’t been published anywhere yet. What a platform is allowed to do with those files matters just as much as generation quality. The biggest difference I found is what happens to your i...
