Earlier this week, we brought nearly 700 leaders together in New York for @runwayml's inaugural AI Summit — and the energy in the room made one thing clear: the creative industry is at an inflection point. Across media, entertainment, gaming, advertising, and legal, two themes emerged consistently: Taste and transparency matter as much as capability. And the companies that will lead tomorrow are the ones embracing AI today. -Kathleen Kennedy of @Lucasfilm reminded us that taste is fundamental to the art of filmmaking — and that AI, in the right hands, will help us tell even better stories. -@HElsakr19489 (@Adobe) and @philwiser (@paramountco) shared how their organizations are navigating AI adoption honestly — leaning into the possibilities while being clear-eyed about the realities. -Creative principals at UNVEIL Studio and @Silverside_AI pushed this further: for them, AI isn't just a tool. It is the medium. -Christopher Harrelson of Why Brands shared a striking data point: designers using Runway have seen a 5x efficiency gain — enabling more work, faster iteration, and higher-quality outputs. Runway's own @theeddylee grounded it all in a sobering reality: only 10% of US businesses use AI in production, and 55% of corporate communications are still text-only, even as video drives 70% of internet traffic. The gap between where most companies are and where they need to be is wide. Can't wait to see what our next summit (un)covers!

Last week we debuted our new real-time video agents with one of the hardest demos possible: live television. The BBC is now using Runway Characters to augment segments of their programming. Wild to see this live. So excited for all the new possible applications to come.

A friend made me realize today: If you're a maker and have high agency, *right now* is probably the best time there has been in all of history.

Prediction: In the AI age, taste will become even more important. When anyone can make anything, the big differentiator is what you choose to make. paulgraham.com/taste.html

Whisper Thunder is out. New state of the art for video: Runway Gen-4.5. What an incredible journey. It took so much hard work and care from the most talented team to build something truly special. A small team accomplished what everyone thought was impossible. You will really enjoy using this model. It feels different from the start and is unique in so many ways. I've been using it nonstop for days. I'm so excited for everyone to try it out. Oh, and there are more fun surprises ahead!

Creativity is just controlled hallucination. The evolutionary trick was learning to hallucinate usefully.

We remember Willie Mays, a baseball legend and part of a long-line of Black patriots who have helped us see a better version of ourselves as Americans and as a nation. Jill and I send our love to the Mays family, his adoring fans, and all those he will continue to inspire with his one-of-a-kind legacy.
