The race to creating the most efficient and most intelligent AI programs has some unlikely contenders who are hoping to redefine specific industries through more advanced models. Robinhood’s Vlad Tenev is developing “mathematical superintelligence” for provable accuracy in math and science, while SandboxAQ’s Jack Hidary backs “large quantitative models” trained on numbers, not words. As billions flow into AI, the future may not be one-size-fits-all models like ChatGPT.

The next ad you see on TikTok might not feature a human at all. With new features like avatars and instant video generation, brands now have the power to create ads with virtual “influencers.” In its latest update, TikTok rolled out several generative AI features for advertisers as a part of TikTok Symphony. This suite of generative AI tools is designed to help “streamline creative production and spark bold new ideas.”

The camera is a tool — but to do what? Images shape our daily life, yet we rarely question how they’re made or why.

As filmmakers, we’re fascinated by how humans use cameras and by the immense influence images have. For 15 years, we’ve investigated the history of the camera, and we’ve turned the material we gathered into a feature documentary, chronicling how people behind the camera went from capturing the image of a backyard to today’s multibillion-dollar content industry.

The video above, “Death of a Fantastic Machine,” is a shorter version of that documentary, and here we focus on something that emerged as the key factor: how economic forces have shaped what we see, from the earliest photography to the algorithms and A.I. of today.

Some say there are an estimated 45 billion cameras on earth today, giving humankind access to perspectives far beyond our own reach. But the very tool that could help us understand the world is increasingly used to distort it. With A.I., this distortion has reached a new level. When any photo or video can be manufactured, what happens to the camera’s credibility? Can we still trust what we see?

This week in AI had a pretty clear theme: AI video is improving rapidly and real people are using it in their work now. AI Video is transitioning for “great for making memes” to “great for making ANYTHING”.

I’ll show off the new Midjourney Video, plus I’ll show you two new models from China that are already beating out Veo 3 on leaderboards. I’ll top it all off by showing you the wild Kalshi commercial that aired during the NBA finals that was created almost entirely with AI video. All that and more in today’s video! Enjoy.

The rise of AI relationship interactions.

It’s hard to believe, but Midjourney video is finally here, and it’s seriously impressive! I’ve been putting it to the test and I’m ready to share my thoughts on where it soars and where it stumbles.

In this video, I’m taking a deep dive into Midjourney’s new video capabilities. We’ll explore everything from its low-cost, low-resolution approach to some mind-blowing stylized outputs that you won’t want to miss. I’ll also share some cool tips and tricks I’ve discovered along the way, including how to get the most out of your generations without burning through your fast hours.

Plus, I’ve got an exclusive first look at the new creative video upscaler from Topaz, called Astra. It’s the perfect companion for Midjourney’s low-res videos, and the results are pretty stunning.

If you’re as excited as I am about the future of AI video, you’re in the right place!
