A breakthrough in real-time video generation. As a research preview developed with @NVIDIA and shared at @NVIDIAGTC this week, we trained a new real-time video model running on Vera Rubin. HD videos generate instantly, with time-to-first-frame under 100ms. Unlocking an entirely new creative paradigm and bolstering the foundations of our General World Model, GWM-1. Real-time generation opens a fundamentally different design space for video models and world simulation. We're investing in co-designing our models alongside advances in hardware to keep pushing this frontier.

@dennisyu Everyone is copying everyone right now, but Opus 4.6 is the best model and it has 1M context right now. Nobody else comes close enough. The next inflection will come from omni models & continual learning. That's when I'll give another look.

@mattshumer_ A mission control. Shared task list, work allocation and tracking KPI/accountabilities. I basically give it the EOS framework (that's what most developers miss).

For those with multiple OpenClaw agents on one machine, what's your setup to allow them to work together?

@dennisyu Right on the money. What scares me is tokenflation, I see tools like cowork and openai frontier increasing demand 10-100X by end of year, which can cause plan prices surging . Subsidies won't last forever. At some point, the economics of investing $50K into your own compute work.

@dennisyu I got 2 MAX 20 plans, and a Google Ultra Plan working 24x7. I exhaust my weekly quotas so I don't feel the need to stay awake at night. Also try remote control on claude, it allows you to keep sending intent while you're out and about.

Don't cheap out. Get the $200/month Claude 20X MAX plan for yourself if you're serious about AI agents and can spend at least an hour a day with it. The math doesn't make sense for 5X at $100/month or 1X at $20/month if you actually use it. You and I have initiatives that aren't getting done-- now there's no excuse. If you know how to manage your agents (human or not), you'll be using up your tokens/credits before they replenish each week. Buy one for yourself and also for team members who are eager to get stuff done-- technical experience or not, whatever age or experience level. There is no team/business plan for this level of usage yet-- at least not in the way we have it tune websites, repurpose content, run ads, etc... I've done the same thing with Perplexity and OpenAI agents-- stay with Claude for now. Can't wait for Grok to have some agents.

Be honest If @openclaw vanished right now, could you still build your entire project from the ground up? No ChatGPT. No Cursor. Just you and a completely blank file. Could you?

Today I've come to the conclusion that AI is about to make the gap between the have and the have-nots MUCH worse than I previously thought. 😩 I have spoken out about the great reshoring for years, where AI would cause emerging economies dependent on outsourcing suffer by replacing low-cost labor with artificial intelligence. However, I also advocated and promoted the hopeful vision that AI would also make more opportunities for those in emerging economies to compete in a global market. Today, I've come to the conclusion that this silver lining is NOT HAPPENING. The price for access to full time co-work is now roughly $600 a month. I can exhaust a Claude Max 20X plan in 3 days, working on a single project, and it takes me only about 1 hour a day of interacting with it. That kind of money is more than what many people in offshore locations make. The economics make it so that they will be priced out. And because of the ability for these agents to work for hours at a time, the experienced practitioner can easily supervise 6 such full-time agents on projects. That means that, if I wanted to go full throttle right now, I would have no issue at all burning through $3,600 a month on tokens, personally, and probably more, doing productive economic work. The ones who can afford that, will be hugely more advantaged than those who can't, and this will make wealth inequality grow dramatically. THIS IS NOT a $20 ChatGPT membership moment, it's 2026 and the world is different now. And before you say local hardware ... the models capable of this kind of work are even more out of reach for this population. I know we're all in the Pentagon-Anthropic news cycle right now, but products like Claude Cowork are about to eat white collar work alive, and only humans with access to capital will have sufficient access. It's not a terrible idea to secure bare metal capacity for your company either, as I think there will be serious supply shortages. This is red alert. 🚨 🚨 🚨

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth
This week, Anthropic delivered a master class in arrogance and betrayal as well as a textbook case of how not to do business with the United States Government or the Pentagon. Our position has never wavered and will never waver: the Department of War must have full, unrestricted access to Anthropic’s models for every LAWFUL purpose in defense of the Republic. Instead, @AnthropicAI and its CEO @DarioAmodei, have chosen duplicity. Cloaked in the sanctimonious rhetoric of “effective altruism,” they have attempted to strong-arm the United States military into submission - a cowardly act of corporate virtue-signaling that places Silicon Valley ideology above American lives. The Terms of Service of Anthropic’s defective altruism will never outweigh the safety, the readiness, or the lives of American troops on the battlefield. Their true objective is unmistakable: to seize veto power over the operational decisions of the United States military. That is unacceptable. As President Trump stated on Truth Social, the Commander-in-Chief and the American people alone will determine the destiny of our armed forces, not unelected tech executives. Anthropic’s stance is fundamentally incompatible with American principles. Their relationship with the United States Armed Forces and the Federal Government has therefore been permanently altered. In conjunction with the President's directive for the Federal Government to cease all use of Anthropic's technology, I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security. Effective immediately, no contractor, supplier, or partner that does business with the United States military may conduct any commercial activity with Anthropic. Anthropic will continue to provide the Department of War its services for a period of no more than six months to allow for a seamless transition to a better and more patriotic service. America’s warfighters will never be held hostage by the ideological whims of Big Tech. This decision is final.

Based on a reverse cyber-forensic analysis of the image’s visual artifacts, UI design, and real-time open-source intelligence (OSINT) gathered from current web chatter, here is what the investigation reveals. Forum Design and Layout Suspicions The structural layout of the screenshot is highly characteristic of underground "cracking" and database-leak communities that run on customized MyBB (MyBulletinBoard) or XenForo engines. Visual Match: The combination of a dark-mode background, a solid purple header, and the specific green/white text layout for "REP" (Reputation) and "LIKES" directly beneath the avatar is a staple of popular English-speaking leak sites like Cracked.io and Nulled.to, or custom themes on sites like BreachForums.cracked+1 The "Russian" Discrepancy: Real-time social media tracking shows users (such as the X account taker_of_whizz) reporting that the Seedance 2.0 weights were leaked on a "Russian forum". However, forensic analysis of the screenshot contradicts this: the UI elements ("Views", "Offline", "Posted at", and "DOWNLOAD:") are entirely in English. This indicates the site is an English-speaking illicit forum, which the general public or media often generically mislabel as "Russian" due to the nature of the content.[x]​ Who is "Faster"? "Faster" appears to be a pseudonymous handle used within this specific underground ecosystem rather than a known Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) group or high-profile public hacker. Account Forensics: The user's stats (24 REP, 44 LIKES) suggest a relatively standard or newly active account rather than a legacy administrator or VIP leaker.[x]​ Avatar Analysis: The avatar is a cartoon "lean cup" (a double styrofoam cup with purple liquid, a face, and red sneakers throwing hand signs). This specific edgy, streetwear-inspired aesthetic is extremely common in the cracking and game-cheating subcultures, functioning as a generic mask rather than a traceable, unique identity. Forensic Clues & The VirusTotal Link The most critical forensic clue in the image is the inclusion of the VirusTotal link (.../gui/file/7331...?nocache=1). In illicit communities, uploaders are often mandated by forum rules to provide a VirusTotal scan to prove their files do not contain malware. Threat Intelligence Warning: Because Seedance 2.0 is reported to be a massive file requiring up to 96GB of VRAM, it is highly probable that this leak is either a bait-and-switch or a "bound" file. Threat actors frequently package highly anticipated, unreleased AI models with infostealers or remote access trojans (RATs). The VirusTotal link provided by "Faster" may only be scanning a harmless text file or a benign installer, rather than the actual massive payload hidden in the "DOWNLOAD:" section.[x]

The weight file for Seedance 2.0 has been leaked on a Russian forum. It requires 96GB of video memory, but they are developing a quantized version.

AI has made me gain 43,232 followers in 5 and a half weeks, and generated 100% of $511,981 revenue for me in that same time. And if you believe those kinds of posts, then definitely don't follow me for more, because I won't post those kind of lies for hype.

I replaced a $200K GTM hire with @openclaw 😱 here's the system that runs my outbound: step 1: mine LinkedIn engagement → @rapidapi scrapes everyone engaging with niche content → someone who commented on specific posts = 10x warmer step 2: enrich + verify → Hunter/Apollo finds the decision-maker + email → @Perplexity deep research pulls signals like hiring, fundraising, media appearances, quotes step 3: score against your ICP → title, company, signals = ranked 0-100 → only A-tier leads get touched step 4: write personalized outreach → Claude writes outreach referencing what they ACTUALLY engaged with and talk about step 5: send via @instantly_ai → 3-email sequence. automated follow-ups. step 6: pre-call deep research → @PerplexityComet builds a 1-page briefing 30 min before every call input: your ICP + niche keywords output: booked meetings with people who already care $200K/year GTM engineer → $130/month in APIs. I packaged the entire system as the First 1000 Kit: - all 8 @openclaw skills - every prompt - tool-by-tool setup - email sequences that convert giving it away free. comment 1000 + like + follow (must follow so i can DM)

Alexander De Ridder's six founder capabilities to make you singularity-proof: 1. Creative problem-solving : the ability to generate novel solutions AI can't pattern-match to training data. 2. Emotional intelligence : the skill AI lacks most, and increasingly the highest-value differentiator in leadership. 3. Strategic foresight : pattern recognition across domains, spotting where technology and markets are converging before others. 4. AI orchestration literacy : understanding how to direct, constrain, and combine AI agents into production systems. 5. Translation ability : bridging AI's capabilities to specific industry problems; being the person who turns technical possibility into business outcome. 6. Domain expertise in vertical markets : because if your content or workflow does not add any value over the generic AI model, then why should agents and people come to you? The same applies to products and services.
