We're proud to showcase some recent real-time work with 3D / 4D Gaussian splatting. In January of 2024 we acquired a full 3DGS commercial license with Inria to allow us to offer 4DGS services to clients around the world. We've spent the last 10 months developing our custom 4DGS software pipeline, utilizing our own Nvidia GPU cluster to batch process 100,000's of 4DGS frames rapidly, combined with our state-of-the-art custom built volumetric capture system(s). We can capture anything from complex character interactions for visual effects shots, or dynamic fast fighting scenes, sports, acting, even capturing and storing memories of family and friends for the future! The possibilities are endless. Our focus is always on high-quality and high-fidelity. We don't cut corners and we're continually striving to learn and improve. The below video showcases some 6-dof spatial captures we took of @henrypearce4D's family. These scenes are played back in real-time @ 30fps inside a 3rd party engine running in a 120fps virtual environment. This is a culmination of years of hard work and dedication and we are keen to commercialize this technology with you. Please do reach out if you're interested in our capture systems or our 3D/4DGS processing services.

“A wake up call” the CEO of Britain’s biggest domestic energy firm told me last night about the possibility of long term impact to global gas and oil infrastructure… but he pointed to electrification as the main lesson, while domestic gas would be preferable to shipped gas:

“wake-up call that gets us to electrify more of our economy and get more of our energy from homegrown sources.”


"The irony is, right now, we're emailing millions of customers saying their energy prices are going to fall..."
"You can't protect yourself against these global markets forever."
 "Traders are really worried about how long it's going to take these facilities to get back online."
"Our electricity system's too inefficient. We need to reform that markets so that people get the benefits of our homegrown resources."
“my own view is that shipping gas around the world is more inefficient and has more leaks of methane than if you use local gas. But we shouldn't kid ourselves. North Sea gas wouldn't meaningfully bring the price down because we're paying the global price. If we got more out of the North Sea, it would simply be sold to other countries at these very high prices or here at these high prices. And we can't kid ourselves we're going to be self-sufficient in gas again. What we can do is have a much cheaper approach to electricity than we have today. Our electricity system's too inefficient. We need to reform that markets so that people get the benefits of our homegrown resources.

"The irony is, right now, we're emailing millions of customers saying their energy prices are going to fall..." Greg Jackson, CEO of Octopus Energy, says energy prices could be impacted if disruption in the Strait of Hormuz "is not over quite quickly". #Newsnight

Sure, your eyes aren’t tricking you. That clip looks better than the new trailer, and the reason has nothing to do with talent. The VFX supervisor on Amazing Spider-Man 2 in 2014? Jerome Chen. The VFX supervisor on Brand New Day? Also Jerome Chen. Same person. Completely different system around him. In 2014, Chen had 50 effects artists at Sony Imageworks, the largest VFX crew the studio had ever put on a single project. They handled about 1,000 of the film’s 1,600 VFX shots on a $255 million budget. The crew shot on real film (not digital), on location in actual New York City, scanned Times Square with 36,000 photographs of over 100 billboards, and built physical lighting rigs on set so the CGI would match the real world. Now look at how Marvel makes Spider-Man movies. No Way Home had 2,500 VFX shots spread across 12 studios and about 3,000 artists. The budget was $200 million, $55 million less than TASM2 despite having 56% more VFX shots. Digital Domain, one of the VFX vendors, was delivering final shots days before the December 17, 2021, release. They kept reworking shots into mid-January, after the movie was already in theaters. Zoom out, and the math gets worse. Marvel released 6 films between 2008 and 2012. From 2023 to 2025, they pushed out 7 films and 7 TV shows. The Hollywood union representing VFX workers reported that Marvel pays artists about 20% below industry average and staffs one person where other studios hire three. Artists described 64-hour weeks and breakdowns on the job. Then, in February 2025, Technicolor, the parent company of MPC (three-time Oscar winner for Life of Pi, The Jungle Book, and 1917), collapsed almost overnight. 4,500 jobs gone globally. The studio had been actively working on Disney and Paramount films when the lights went out. Brand New Day has four months before release, and trailers routinely show unfinished shots. But the gap between a 2014 Spider-Man and a 2026 Spider-Man has nothing to do with technology going backwards. The industry has been asked to do three times the work for less money per shot while its biggest studios are going under.

Those freaking out about AI face filters are obscuring the bigger picture. DLSS5 offers a generational leap in graphics, made possible with software breakthroughs rather than more powerful hardware. Devs will finesse the application for new releases and they’ll look incredible.

It is the future. Genie hinted at what's coming. Imagine What Dreams May Come. What an exciting time. It will be proxy meshes and phong shading and all come down to the prompting. FYI I started my career building computer games back in the late 90's. This is a full circle moment tbh.

I can't believe that Nvidia looked at this "AI on top of games filter" and said to themselves this is the future of gaming. Like it or not, this is where Nvidia is heading and they're calling it neural rendering with DLSS 5. The examples they've showed reminded me a lot of those AI generated filter videos on top of GTA V, except that now it is supposed to run in real-time. Honestly, I don't like this current look at all

Ricardo@Ric_RTP·
A guy who's built companies for 25 years just went on Diary of a CEO and said plumbers will earn more than lawyers within the next 2 years. Sounds insane. But the numbers actually back it up: Last week alone, $280 BILLION was wiped off the value of legal and data companies. Thomson Reuters crashed. LegalZoom got hammered. The entire knowledge economy felt the shockwave in real time. Why? Because AI just proved it can do what a $500/hour lawyer does for $20 a month. Daniel Priestley went on the show and explained how he recently had a legal case that was quoted at $60,000 by a law firm. Instead of paying, his team used Claude. The AI gave them a full coaching session on how to handle the case, mapped out multiple decision tree pathways, generated every document they needed, and even built a spreadsheet breaking down exactly what to say and what not to say in the negotiation. Total cost: $20 a month. They resolved the case without a lawyer. Now multiply that by every business in the world that's paying legal fees they no longer need to pay. The entire financial model of knowledge work is collapsing in real time. Meanwhile, ask yourself this: Can AI fix your toilet? Can it rewire your house? Lay your foundation? Replace your roof? It can't. And it won't be able to for decades. Here's where the supply and demand crisis gets ugly... Governments spent 20 years pushing every young person into university. Get a degree or you'll never get a job. So an entire generation that should've become plumbers, electricians, and builders went and got master's degrees in subjects nobody was hiring for. They came out with $60-80K in debt and ZERO marketable skills. That created a massive shortage of tradespeople. And now AI is about to flood the market with unemployed knowledge workers while the demand for people who work with their hands explodes. The math is simple: Too many lawyers, not enough plumbers. AI makes the lawyer surplus worse every single month. Priestley called this the most important economic shift of our LIFETIME. For 30 years, blue collar work has been devalued. Everyone wanted to sit behind a screen. White collar was the "smart" path. That era just ended. The pendulum is swinging back hard. And the people who positioned themselves in physical, hands-on work that AI cannot touch are about to be the highest earners in the economy. For anyone building a business right now, the lesson is clear: Stop chasing what's "prestigious." Chase what's SCARCE. AI can write your contracts, build your website, run your ads, and draft your emails. But it cannot show up to your client's office, shake their hand, and solve a physical problem. The winners of the next decade won't be the most technically skilled. They'll be the ones who bet on what machines can't do.

The Phantom MK1 is the first US humanoid robot built explicitly for combat. $150k per unit. Ballistic armor. Stealth coating that hides it from thermal sensors. Can carry 20kg of weapons or equipment. Reports claim two units are already being tested on the frontlines in Ukraine. War is about to look very different...
Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal

Humanoid robots are now reportedly being tested on the frontlines in Ukraine. Black steel bodies, tinted visors, armed with M-16s. The American company Foundation sent two Phantom MK-1 units in February. Already has $24 million in contracts with the US Army, Navy, and Air Force. The future of warfare just arrived, and it shoots an M-16, never sleeps, never flinches. Source: @nexta_tv

For the facial animations in my game, I use a technique that yields results similar to L.A. Noire. To keep it simple: I first generate a facial animation video using AI like LTX 2. Then, I create a video depth map from that animation and project it onto a face mask. Using vertex displacement, the depth map dynamically deforms the face as the character speaks. The result looks good in standalone VR. I actually created this workflow long time ago: x.com/alexfredo87/st…

@8Infinite8 @clairetcash @AsakyGRN The marginal cost to X for 25M impressions is tiny—mostly CDN/bandwidth at $0.01-0.05/GB. Average mixed content (text/images/light video): ~$10-50 total. Even heavy video views: under $200-400. Way below the $200+ creator payout. 🚀
