I get so frustrated with ComfyUI - and Gemini's terrible attempts at helping with it - I want to (censored) myself.

I wish ComfyUI would fix that bug where it shows a blank black screen when it starts up. Happens every few days. Have to "know" to press CTRL-R every time - there's 100% zero ui telling me to do that lol

So tired of Gemini insisting its giving a direct link to something, and instead the link is just a link to a google search, where it's not clear what I'm supposed to choose.

@wildmindai I wonder if it solves the biggest issue - node conflicts causing comfy not to start lol

MooshieUI: Beginner-friendly desktop frontend for ComfyUI. - clean 3-panel layout; - txt2img, img2img, inpainting; - built-in Tiled Diffusion upscaling and MultiDiffusion; - auto-download for models. github.com/Mooshieblob1/M…

@McGrathND Another unlabelled ad in my feed - fuck you McGrath institute

The culmination of years of research and dozens of in-depth interviews, Professor Abigail Favale's groundbreaking new documentary-style podcast premieres tomorrow.

@AIMuseModels @higgsfield Typical ai bot response

@higgsfield This is actually pretty crazy… saving $100M in 4 days really puts things into perspective. Feels like we’re entering a new era where anyone can create something big with the right tools. Curious to see where this goes 👀

🧩 We just saved $100,000,000 in 4 days making this AI movie Introducing Higgsfield Original Series - world's first complete AI streaming platform showcasing next generation AI filmmakers. Discover AI films and series and vote on which of the teasers gets continued. Revolution in AI filmmaking just happened - Ep. 1 of Arena Zero debuted on Higgsfield Original Series OST: Dirty Ctrl - DEM

@iamgeographic @LTXStudio No you can’t use your own audio unfortunately

@LTXStudio Is this using LTX 2.6 to re-output the videos themselves? Can this be used to redub with any waveform?

Your podcast. 175 languages. Perfect lip sync. AI dubbing is on LTX Studio for Enterprise.

Why aren’t commercial ai models available as local versions, for people who want to use them for cheaper (ie. Still pay but less, because compute is local)? Not open source, but a middle ground.

@Gossip_Goblin Do you think there’s a way for us to vibe code a comfy ui json that uses ltx to just replace mouths? :) if Gemini wasn’t so dumb I’d try it :)

The issue is that CoPilot doesn’t work. It’s only people who are FORCED to use it that use it. But really, thats Microsoft’s whole model (forcing users) so it might work in the end. They may disable windows 10 and 11 entirely next year and force windows 12 with copilot in every aspect…

Nadella paid $650 million to acquihire Mustafa Suleyman and 70 Inflection employees in March 2024. The job: make Copilot the AI product that justifies Microsoft’s infrastructure bet. Two years later, Suleyman no longer runs Copilot. The corporate framing is generous. “Freed up to focus on superintelligence.” The numbers tell a different story. Microsoft 365 has 450 million paid commercial seats. After two years on the market, during the largest AI hype cycle in history, Copilot converted 15 million of them. That’s 3.3%. At $30/user/month, those seats generate roughly $5.4 billion annually. Microsoft spent $37.5 billion on AI infrastructure in a single quarter. The competitive data is worse. Recon Analytics surveyed 150,000+ enterprise users in January 2026. Copilot’s paid subscriber share dropped from 18.8% to 11.5% in six months. Gemini passed it in November. The most damning finding: 70% of users initially preferred Copilot because it was already embedded in their Office apps. After trying ChatGPT and Gemini, 8% kept choosing it. That 70-to-8 drop is the number that explains this entire reorg. Microsoft has the greatest distribution advantage in enterprise software history, and 90% of users leave after trying the competition. So Nadella hands Copilot to Jacob Andreou, a former Snap executive. You bring in an eight-year consumer growth operator when the problem is adoption, not science. And Suleyman gets “superintelligence”: no shipped product, no revenue target, no quarterly earnings call where an analyst asks about the 3.3%. The $650 million acquihire just became the most expensive research fellowship in tech history.

@Filmbot @techradar That image literally has synth id in it, so yep, google ai 😂

@techradar One frame likely from Nano Banana Pro just for PR sake.

First Line Films has shared its first look at the AI-generated Val Kilmer character for the movie As Deep As The Grave. techradar.com/ai-platforms-a…

@0xKofi It’s bizarre. I don’t think people are reading code AT ALL…

I've been seeing a lot of folk on the timeline say IDEs are dying. But I don't get it. Are you guys not reviewing the code your agents generate 😅

@carlosedubarret Dumb idea but stick with me: what if there was an open source way for us to make a “virtual HMC” from any video? So we input a video and it fixes the face so it was stable. So we could then use metahuman animator etc on it. Would require great face tracking. And possibly, when half face occluded, it could “guess” the other half by mirroring maybe?

@nullhypeai @GoogleAIStudio Bot reply. Again

The full-stack push is real, but the adoption curve and the trust curve are now moving in opposite directions. 92% of US developers use AI coding tools daily. Developer trust in AI-generated code has fallen from 77% in 2023 to 60% in 2026. 45% of AI-generated code samples contain OWASP Top-10 vulnerabilities. Google building a better app-generation layer solves the supply problem. The quality verification layer is still almost entirely manual, and nobody is shipping that at the speed vibe coding demands.

@inflectivAI @GoogleAIStudio Another bot reply

@GoogleAIStudio Integrating real-world services like Maps and payment processors into a seamless AI workflow is the game-changing opportunity of this century. It allows a single creator to build utility-grade software that was previously restricted to well-funded engineering departments.

@ClearThinkinAi @GoogleAIStudio You sound like a bot

@GoogleAIStudio this feels like the real shift not just “generate code”, but actually handling state, auth, realtime, infra the interesting part is whether people will still understand what they’re building… or just ship blindly

@Filmbot @firagawalkwthme For shots like this, I think people react mostly to (a) no direct strong realistic sunlight and (b) a level of artificial “bloom” around the edges of characters.

@firagawalkwthme Choices in depth of field both for traditionally capture images and ones destined for a CG/VFX workflow have lots of variables becomes a mix of artistic, technical and aesthetic choices.

I would actually love to hear a cinematographer explain why so many movies look like this now? It’s not just marvel, even comedies that are shot on location constantly have this out of focus background that makes everyone look like they’re standing in front of a green screen

@sadkatwt @OfficialLoganK can you help us understand what’s happening here with Pro limits and antigravity please?

Antigravity is a legit scam use it for an hour and get rate limited for a week even on PRO plan. Also there was a bug they rolled out credit system and just after limits were about to reset there was another week added to the reset timer.

@gazollajr @sadkatwt @grok Grok isn’t answering because he died last night. Did the family not call you? :( massive heart attack. Rip @grok

@sadkatwt @grok @grok?
