I gave WIRED the exclusive on our hands launch, and they wrote a really weird article about how we are sexualizing robotics… wired.com/story/the-1x-n… I felt pretty betrayed because that’s not what they told me they were writing about not is that what I’ve ever been about… actually I stand for quite the opposite… But I’ve come to find a lot of dishonesty and malice in the journalism community so I wasn’t surprised. This is what I sent the author… I’m only sharing this because I hope it encourages journalists to resist the click bait trap and tell truly awesome stories because I for one don’t believe journalism is dead— I think it’s just starting and just needs to evolve past the weird corner of the internet where data driven optimization turns everything into smooth brained shocking brain rot bullshit. The technological revolution we are going through should inspire a journalism renaissance. Not let it fall into further decay. There is so much brilliance at play in the world and the stories should be told! My note: “[author name redacted], it was nice talking to you, but I wanted to let you know that I didn’t enjoy your article at all. I understand the need to be inflammatory because that seems to be the only thing that gets clicks these days but that doesnt mean you shouldn’t recognize when something special is in front of you. I trusted our PR team in saying we should offer you the exclusive on what is one of the most important technological developments in the history of Mankind and I deeply regret it. Good luck with the rest of your writing career. -Dar Sleeper”

Meta Muse Video just entered the Video Arena at #3. @AIatMeta’s new video model scored 1459 in the Text-to-Video Arena. It outperforms Alibaba’s HappyHorse 1.0 by +30pts and ranks ahead of Grok Imagine, Sora 2 Pro and Google Veo-3.1 models. Meta has now reached the video AI frontier - congrats to the Meta team on this big milestone!
Really cool use case I found with Gemini Omni. The model can listen to commands in the video and make adjustments based off of these commands. > Change the color of the background to whatever color the subject in the video says.
