@nicholasnlawton Sick stuff, congrats guys. Excited for what’s to come.

If I’m wrong, you can name my first kid. But, we will be a billion dollar company in the next 18 months. Last week, We sat down to share some lessons so far as to how we’ve scaled to be a $100M company in only two years. Free sauce below: 🥫

@Gossip_Goblin where is it premiering

This humble little tweet won’t get much attention now, but this film will mark a huge milestone in AI filmmaking.

Pomegranate - premiering July 22.

@RichKleinAI This is so awesome Rich. Are you open to chatting about ai films? Would love to exchange notes!

Just pushed some nice updates to the AI Film History project. - A new condensed timeline view, so you can quickly scroll through the entire timeline. - The artist search filter is now available on the main timeline view. - The film gallery view is now grouped by era. Also, lots of new films and industry news were added to the timeline. If you have any suggestions, let me know. Direct link below. 👇 Enjoy!

@sridharfyi bet on yourself...500k.

founders, quick question: if you raised a $500k pre-seed round, how much salary would you pay yourself from it? curious to hear what founders consider reasonable.

@gavinpurcell it is gavin! would love to chat ai film/video gen and more, lmk!

i understand that we're all caught up in the current drama wave holding back frontier ai models but... we should take a second to imagine what those ai models look like in one, two, five years so like, we all agree... the world is fundamentally changing right?

@gavinpurcell sick stuff! would love to chat ai film and exchange notes

ai video challenge #1 (for me) can i make a compelling anime microdrama with AI tools in under say four to six hours per video? well, here's episode one of 'quiet hearts' time: 6 hours? gonna aim for 10 of these for say 20 min per 'series' wish me luck workflow 👇

Competition is necessary. A prosperous world is one adapting to shifts in tech, power, and capital. Only a tiny few benefit from lopsided access to the frontier. Thankfully, many players want the prize equally. Bullish infra and model aggregators.

@itsandrewgao that will indeed be a dark day for the world

It may someday be the case that one of the greatest perks of US citizenship is access to AGI

@c_valenzuelab Feels so effortless. beautiful.

If you have a few minutes today, watch this short film. I highly recommend it. You won’t be disappointed. It’s one of the winners of AIF and a film that everyone I meet keeps mentioning. It’s mesmerizing, with a brilliant concept and exceptional execution. Costa Verde. Directed by Léo Cannone & New Forest Film.

@joshelman Congrats Josh. The worlds are coming…

Engram, remember this…Shizhe is the man

@ayaannmalik @amilabs @ylecun big city, even bigger moves

I just graduated from Stanford, and surprisingly, I feel happier, more energized, and more excited than ever. The SF bubble can be an echo chamber. In search of more original, creative, and grounded thinking, I’m moving to New York to join @amilabs alongside @ylecun, @sainingxie, and an incredible team researching on world modeling and physical intelligence. Excited to branch out and meet people from all walks of life in NYC. Please reach out :)

Twas about time in-house picked up

@cbdoane @Redfin this is awesome. can't wait for ads to get even crazier.

Two years ago I became obsessed with making AI videos. No filmmaking experience. Just a genuine love for the craft. My only real goal has been to make the best videos I possibly can. Last week, this spec ad I made for @Redfin was nominated for AI Commercial of the Year at the @generatedawards. The category included work from @Google, @kfc, and @runwayml (congrats @jforozcop for the win) Still not exactly sure what the Generated Awards are, but it feels pretty good. Really gratifying to follow your gut and actually see progress. Onto the next one.

@ayaannmalik @MAliyanIshfaq Not the worst failure ya know!

failed to be a dropout 💔 more soon 🗽

@0xInk_ If not now, then when

should I open an AI animation studio?

@0xInk_ Insane! How much did it cost you roughly to generate/make this? Looking into making my own short series using seedance/nano. Thanks! :)

INK loves speed made with Claude, Midjourney V8.1, and Seedance 2 thank you to all the sponsors

Who are the coolest up-and-coming designers you know? Want to invite them to something! @ reply or dm!

@paulg Labs/data vendors are missing something more fundamental. We have the tools (rlhf, rl-envs, rubrics, etc) but lack in direction and greater vision. How do you actually want to interact with these systems in your life? Does that reflect what we are currently optimizing for?

Presumably ChatGPT is trained on corpora of things written by humans, and yet it doesn't sound like any human I know. Is there a population somewhere of people who write in chirpy bulleted lists that I've somehow managed to avoid?
