Google Search as you know it is over. The familiar blue links we’ve seen for 25 years are getting pushed out in favor of an “intelligent search box,” which Google is putting front and center as part of its all-in push for AI-powered experiences. The box will expand to accommodate for longer queries, and suggestions will be much more extensive versions of the autocomplete we’ve all seen in the search bar. On top of all that, “information agents” are planned to release this summer, allowing you to track changes made to sites, whether it’s product prices or news updates, and alert you without any prompting.

The tools we use for world building have evolved through the years. The reasons we build them have not. I'm thrilled to be speaking tomorrow on the "From Miniatures to Machine Learning" panel at #RenderCon. We will be talking about filmmaking and next-gen technology.

Developing stories in the age of AI starts the same way it always has: with a great script.  Our Head of Development, Tyler Mitchell, shares thoughts on development, collaboration, and why story still comes first in this new video below. And see link to his blog in the comments.

I could not agree more with @KristynaArcher POV: “We cast #AI as the main character. We anthropomorphized it, then wrote it as the villain. That choice reveals more about us than it does about AI. We assigned it agency, intention, presence.”

The future is hybrid, #AI is already here for workflows, automation and tools but it takes significant skill to deploy in a way that resonates with audiences. In this panel session, we will go through what it takes to be on the front lines! @promise_ai

Dave Clark
Dave Clark@Diesol·
This is Enter The Closet My first AI short film made collectively with some of my favorite AI artists and some new faces. I prompted the narrative and asked the AI community to help me visualize the world. This was a fun experimental exercise and I hope to do more in the future. Many tools were used across all 23+ artists including Google Veo 3.1, Nano Banana, Adobe Firefly, Sora 2 Pro, Elevenlabs, Topaz, Luma Ray 3, Kling 2.5, Hailuo 2.3 and more... I'll let them chime in on specific tools used.

So proud of the work we are delivering! #AdobeFirefly #HybridTech #GFX
Promise@promise_ai

We're thrilled to share the behind-the-scenes of "My Friend, Zeph" - a new short from Dave Clark, launched this week at #AdobeMax. The film is a tender story about connection between past and present, memory and imagination. Using @AdobeFirefly, Dave brought the film to life using a hybrid approach that blended traditional filmmaking with generative tools. Working with actors on location and against blue screen, he used AI to enhance and expand the world, deepening its emotion and sense of wonder. The result is a story that feels both timeless, grounded in human performance, yet elevated by the magic of creative technology. @Diesol
