Thanks to  @HPInc  & Intel for sponsoring us! More on the Zbook Fury https://bit.ly/4uapNHs Google I/O is next week and the AI leaks are pouring out: a new Spark agent, Veo 4 Omni, Gemini 3.2 Flash that's reportedly 20x cheaper than GPT-5.5. This week on AI For Humans, Google is cooking again and the I/O leaks are stacking up. We dig into Google Spark, a new Gemini agent that may have access to your entire digital life. Veo 4 Omni model leaks suggest deeper reasoning and character consistency, and the model gets math right. Gemini 3.2 Flash is rumored to deliver 90% of GPT-5.5's capability at a fraction of the cost and dramatically faster speeds. There's a new GoogleBook with Gemini built in. And Google is reinventing the mouse cursor, the input device that's been largely unchanged since 1968, with voice AI. Plus, Thinking Machines dropped voice interactivity demos that feel a lot like ChatGPT Voice from two years ago. OpenAI is reportedly already working on GPT-5.6, and Sam Altman is giving away two free months of Codex to companies to drive adoption. Gavin's been experimenting with local open-source LLMs and shares his setup.  AND…we get into the data center sickness conversation: infrasound from data centers may be causing cortisol spikes in nearby communities. Figure 03's package sorting livestream proved the robot is autonomous after skeptics accused it of being teleoperated. Unitree dropped a transformable robot.  AI KEEPING US UP AT NIGHT. NO MATTER.

Anthropic signed a compute partnership with SpaceX, with Elon Musk personally signing off. Months ago he said Anthropic hates Western Civilization. Um, what? This week on AI For Humans, in one of the wildest plot twists of the year, Anthropic announced a major compute partnership with SpaceX. Elon Musk personally tweeted that he spent time with the senior Anthropic team, was impressed, and approved leasing Colossus 1 to Anthropic since SpaceXAI had moved training to Colossus 2.  The partnership came alongside Anthropic's massive Code with Claude keynote, where they unveiled a wave of new features including Dreaming, where Claude reviews its past sessions and updates its own memory, Multi-Agent Orchestration, where a lead agent delegates to specialist sub-agents, Routines that let Claude Code kick things off for you, Outcomes that let you specify success and Claude iterates until it's there, Auto-Fix, Webhooks, Async Coding, and Remote Control to code from mobile. Plus, Claude Code rate limits doubled for Pro, Max, Team, and Seat-Based Enterprise plans.  Meanwhile, OpenAI rolled out GPT-5.5 Instant to everyone, and a new voice model is incoming and sounds incredibly good. Spotify launched Save-To-Spotify, an AI agent that creates personalized podcasts. Google's Gemini Nano is coming by default. iRobot creator's Familiars AI robot pet launched. GENE-26.5 is cooking. There's a robot monk in South Korea. And the world's best text exchanges are between Sam Altman and Mira Murati. ANTHROPIC AND SPACEX TEAMED UP. CLAUDE GOT MASSIVE NEW FEATURES. WHAT A WEEK.

A blockbuster New York Times story says the White House may soon require AI models to be approved before public release, with Anthropic's Mythos at the center of it all.   This week on AI For Humans, a major New York Times story revealed that the White House may soon require AI models to be approved by the government before public release. Anthropic's unreleased Mythos model appears to be the catalyst. The administration wants to avoid political fallout from any devastating AI-enabled cyberattack and is also evaluating whether new AI models could yield capabilities useful to the Pentagon and US intelligence agencies. Some officials are pushing for a review system that would give the government first access to AI models. Is this AI nationalization? Not quite, but it's the closest we've come. We dig into what this means and whether Anthropic's scare tactics around Mythos worked.  Sam Altman weighs in on how we get better AI narratives. Even Zach Galifianakis on Conan's podcast went full AI doomer. Plus, AI just outperformed doctors on emergency triage diagnoses in a Harvard trial. Then, we discuss AI microdramas exploding in China and starting to land in the US (PineDrama, Knocked Up Husband Edition, DJ Grandma in the House), what this means for video production, and Gavin's uprezzed Grape Fall images via ChatGPT Images 2.0.  Oh and Kevin's moving across the world today, so Friend of the Pod Ben Relles is co-hosting.

Thanks to @HP & Intel for sponsoring us! More on the Zbook Fury https://bit.ly/4uapNHs The AI robots are coming! We're finally seeing the next stage of AI come to fruition robotics (even in America) as manufacturing and capabilities of humanoids speeds up. This week on AI For Humans, robots just hit their ChatGPT moment. Eka Robotics' robotic hand grabbed a raspberry at incredible speed, and Wired is calling it the moment when robots became as transformative as ChatGPT was for text. Figure Robotics is now manufacturing one robot per hour. 1x just opened a factory targeting 10,000 robots per year. American robotics manufacturing is finally catching up to China after years of falling behind.  We dig into why physical AI is the next big thing and walk through the most impressive recent demos including MotuBrain's new world action model, KAI Robotics' touching but slightly terrifying video out of China, and Neuralink doing robot-assisted surgeries.  Plus, the White House is now fighting Anthropic again because they want MORE access to the Mythos model. Sam Altman launched GPT-5.5 Cyber. Grok dropped a new Imagine video agent. And then there's the strangest story of the week: OpenAI dropped a full blog post explaining why their models keep being obsessed with goblins, and we explain why it matters and what it tells us about how these models actually work.  And, our inaugural Sloppies Award Show kicks off with the first nominee: Amazon's AI voice product overviews, featuring the now-legendary diaper rash cream review.  ROBOTS.

The Wall Street Journal reported OpenAI missed its end-of-year billion-active-user target. Is the AI bubble actually popping or is the panic overblown?  This week on AI For Humans, the AI bubble panic hit a fever pitch after a Wall Street Journal report revealed OpenAI missed its weekly user, monthly revenue, and end-of-year billion-active-user targets. CFO Sarah Friar reportedly told peers she's worried OpenAI won't be able to pay for future compute contracts if revenue doesn't accelerate, and the board is now scrutinizing Sam Altman's deals more closely.  AI stocks crashed, with Oracle, AMD, and CoreWeave all sinking on the news. Anthropic is eating into OpenAI's market share on coding and enterprise. We dig into whether the bubble is actually popping or whether this is a panic that conflates AI capability with the business of AI. Spoiler: we don't think it's over.  Plus, DeepSeek v4 launched and made surprisingly small waves. OpenAI's deal with Microsoft expanded to other clouds. Meanwhile, AI itself is absolutely not slowing down: Tom Cruise is running faster than ever in a viral video, OpenAI dropped a new Chappie-style voice interaction, Claude got a Blender connector for 3D modeling, NVIDIA released Nemotron 3 Nano Omni with 30B parameters and 256K context, and Talkie is an LLM trained entirely on 1880s text.  OPENAI MISSED ITS NUMBERS. IS THIS THE BUBBLE? YES. NO.

Thanks to @HP & Intel for sponsoring us! More on the Zbook Fury https://bit.ly/4uapNHs OpenAI's flagship AI model GPT-5.5 is here. It's smarter, faster, cheaper, better at long-running tasks and…oh boy, everything just changed again. This week on AI For Humans, OpenAI dropped state-of-the-art GPT-5.5 and it's not just another model release, it's the start of a much faster iterative rollout. Sam Altman and Chief Scientist Jakub Pachocki both said to expect significantly more releases going forward, admitting the last few years have been surprisingly slow. It may not be Anthropic Mythos numbers but it's actually here. We walk through the benchmarks, the viral OpenAI dev video about being able to be lazy and letting the model figure things out, and incredible projects people built in the first 24 hours: a full toy railway simulation, Sebastien Bubeck's Unicorn Test, a UFO tank game, and Gavin's Animal Game spun up in 30 minutes.  Plus, Codex got a bunch of new features including browser use and docs. OpenAI shared agents in ChatGPT. More ChatGPT Images 2.0 examples keep dropping. I mean… it's a LOT. GPT-5.5 IS HERE. THE AI RACE JUST GOT FASTER.

OpenAI just dropped ChatGPT Images 2.0 (GPT Image 2) and it's by far the new #1 AI image model. 2K resolution, multi-language support, incredible text rendering, and yes, it can write on individual grains of rice. This week on AI For Humans, OpenAI dropped ChatGPT Images 2.0 (GPT Images 2) and it instantly took the #1 spot on the Arena leaderboard, beating Nano Banana 2 by a significant margin. The new model generates images up to 2K resolution, handles multiple languages including non-Latin scripts like Japanese, Korean, and Hindi, and excels at image-to-image editing. There's a standard instant mode and a thinking mode for paid users that can search the web and double-check its work.  We walk through the best examples so far: Simon Willison's Where's Waldo test, Ethan Mollick's otter benchmark, Gavin's own periodic table test and his AI For Humans in 2045 screenshot. Plus, the OpenAI livestream moment where the model wrote text on individual grains of rice went viral. Elsewhere, SpaceX just bought Cursor for $60 billion to build the new xAI and take on OpenAI and Anthropic for coding and knowledge work. Suno became the #1 music download in the world. And we've got HyperFrames, a cool new way to make motion graphics with Claude Code or Codex. CHATGPT IMAGES 2.0 IS THE NEW IMAGE KING. WHAT A WEEK.

Anthropic dropped Claude Opus 4.7 with better vision, better coding and… better everything. And, along with OpenAI's new Codex, AI is accelerating ever faster. This week on AI For Humans, Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.7, a major step up from Opus 4.6 with better visual reasoning, improved software coding and even makes presentations for cavemen. Benchmarks put Opus 4.7 between 4.6 and the unreleased Mythos preview, and the new default xhigh reasoning level means more token burn but more reliability on hard problems. The same day, OpenAI updated Codex with better computer use, an integrated browser, and a bunch of new tools.  Then Jensen Huang's epic Dwarkesh Patel interview broke the internet, with Jensen explaining why NVIDIA keeps selling AI chips to China and dropping the instantly iconic "you're not talking to someone who woke up a loser" line.  Plus, Reese Witherspoon is now in on AI, Doug Liman's Killing Satoshi got made for $80M using AI tools (would have cost $300M without them) and we got our first look at AI Val Kilmer. OPUS 4.7 HAS LANDED. CODEX GOT UPGRADED.

The AI compute crisis is here. Anthropic's Claude is getting dumber and Opus 4.7 & OpenAI's Spud are about to make it worse. What happen's next? This week on AI For Humans, we dig into the AI compute crunch that's quietly becoming the industry's biggest problem. The Wall Street Journal just ran a cover story about AI using so much energy that computing power is running out. Claude users are noticing the model getting worse, and an AMD Senior AI Director confirmed. AI pundits are asking whether Anthropic's reluctance to release Mythos is really about safety or about not having enough compute.  Meanwhile, Opus 4.7 is reportedly coming next week, rumors are swirling about a new OpenAI model dropping any day, and Uber already blew through its entire annual AI coding budget. Anthropic just signed a deal with Google and Broadcom for more compute. Greg Brockman published an essay on the computer-powered economy.  Plus, Google DeepMind drops Gemini Robotics Reasoning Model ER-1.6, Steven Soderbergh comes to the defense of AI filmmaking, Diplo says you can't fight AI and the internet has opinions, and Ray Kurzweil says we'll soon just accept AIs as conscious because it'll be useless not to. AI IS RUNNING OUT OF POWER. CLAUDE IS GETTING DUMBER. WHAT COULD GO WRONG?

Claude Mythos Preview might break the internet, Florida is suing OpenAI and datacenter protests are spreading. This is the AI backlash. This week on AI For Humans, we're having a frank conversation about the growth of anti-AI sentiment and what we (as humans) can do about it.  Florida's Attorney General launched an investigation into ChatGPT and OpenAI over the dangers of AI to children. Datacenter protests are rising across the country, with xAI facing accusations of poisoning local communities. Bernie Sanders and Hank Green are calling for slowing down while Sam Altman is proposing new taxes for when AI does all the work. Oh and Demis Hassabis says he'd rather have cured cancer than compete with ChatGPT. We dig into how the stories we tell about AI shape public perception, starting with last week's Mythos as cyberweapon framing. Is AI the problem or are we the problem?  Plus, Meta surprised everyone with Muse Spark, a new AI model that's actually pretty good. Claude shipped managed agents, a monitor tool, and advisor strategy features. OpenAI introduced a $100/month plan and doubled Codex limits again. And OG content creator Captain Hahaa is doing incredible stuff with Seedance 2.0. EVERYBODY HATES AI. WE DON'T. BUT… MAYBE WE SHOULD?

Can you vibe code a $1.8 billion company with AI? Sam Altman predicted the one-person billion-dollar startup, and with MedVi, it might've just happened. Today on AI For Humans, we break down the story everyone in AI is talking about: two brothers vibe coded a $1.8 billion company called MedVi, running on GLP-1 supplements with $70 million in profit and a $1 million donation to an animal shelter.  Sam Altman predicted the one-person billion-dollar startup two years ago and now it's real. Greg Brockman weighs in on what this means for the AI hard takeoff.  Plus, Google drops Gemma 4 with small open models built for phones, laptops, and desktops. Qwen 3.6 arrives as another strong open-source contender. We've got updates on Qwopus, Turbo-Quant, and on-device AI's wild future.  We follow up on the Claude Code leak with Anthropic confirming it was human error, and the /buddy tamagotchi feature is now live. Plus, Seedance 2.0 rolls out to more platforms with some incredible new prompts to try. TWO PEOPLE JUST VIBE CODED A BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY. THE HARD TAKEOFF ISN'T COMING. IT'S HERE.

Claude Code's source code just leaked. Frrom always-on autonomous agents to AI dream modes and a tamagotchi pet, Anthropic accidentally showed us the AI future. . This week on AI For Humans, we break down the massive Claude Code source code leak and what it tells us about where AI is heading. The leaked repo reveals Kairos (an always-on autonomous agent mode), a dream mode for nightly memory consolidation, shared project memory across teams, and a tamagotchi-like AI pet called Buddy. Then the leaks kept coming: a separate Anthropic presentation exposed Mythos, a powerful new model tier above Opus that's already at version 8 internally. Plus, Google drops VEO 3.1 Lite for cheaper and faster AI video, Sync-3 brings next-gen lip sync, a Midjourney developer's Pretext library turns boring web text into interactive art and the internet lost its mind, Disney's Robot Olaf collapses on stage, and Dana White has thoughts about AI.

OpenAI killed Sora, cancelled Spicy Chat, and went all in on enterprise and AGI. Their next frontier model is called Spud. Yes, like the potato.  This week on AI For Humans, we dig into OpenAI's massive pivot as they kill Sora entirely, cancel their Disney deal, shut down 'Citrus Mode', and go full defense mode against Anthropic. Their next hope? A new frontier model called Spud that Sam Altman says could accelerate the economy. Plus, Google drops Gemini 3.1 Flash Live with better audio and video agents, Google's new Lyra3 Pro model brings AI-generated music and audio, Mistral launches an open-source voice model, Runway debuts multi-shot video, Meta reveals TRIBE v2 which can predict your thoughts from brain scans, a fully autonomous ping-pong robot called SMASH, and CapCut is ready to grab all that Sora traffic.

AI NEWS: Anthropic's Claude is slowly boiling OpenClaw & OpenAI one feature at a time. They just shipped automode, computer control, phone access, and a ton more.   This week, we breakdown all the biggest news on AI agents like how. Claude can now operate your entire computer from your phone, Claude Code automode can runs fully autonomous, and it's now accessible via Telegram and Discord.  We dig into why this matters for OpenClaw, the open vs closed AI debate heating up, Karpathy using OpenClaw to control his home gadgets… and, oh yeah, OpenAI just shut down Sora. Plus Seedance 2.0 finally drops (sort of), Figure's robot sorting is getting insane, Figure CEO Brett Adcock launches Hark with a team from Apple and Meta, Jonathan Mann's WAMP.LAND, and we debut SLOPWATCH 2026 to talk about what's happening on Fruit Love Island.  Also, we gave our AI a lunch break.

Google AI Studio just got databases, multiplayer, and persistent sessions. Vibecoding just grew up. We break down what it means for your AI workflow. This week on AI For Humans, we dig into Google's massive AI Studio upgrade that levels up vibecoding with Firebase databases, authentication, multiplayer support, persistent sessions, and Next.js integration.

Jensen Huang just stood on stage and said $1 trillion. He wasn't joking. NVIDIA's GTC 2026 keynote was a masterclass in flexing, and we're breaking down every layer of the cake. We walk through Jensen Huang's massive GTC 2026 keynote, from NVIDIA's $1 trillion business projection to the inference inflection point that's reshaping the entire AI industry. We dig into DLSS 5 and why AI-powered neural rendering is about to change gaming forever (sorry, gamers), NVIDIA's deep integration with OpenClaw and the launch of NemoClaw for enterprise agents, chips in space, and what it all means when every company becomes an agentic-as-a-service company. Plus the Dwarkesh podcast with Dylan Patel on the real bottlenecks in compute that nobody's talking about. JENSEN HUANG SAID ONE TRILLION DOLLARS AND DIDN'T BLINK. WE BLINKED. PS, we're now coming to you TWICE a week (both a little shorter).

AI just learned how to make itself smarter. That's not a hypothetical anymore. Recursive self-learning is here, and it's changing everything about how AI develops.   This week on AI For Humans, we break down Andrej Karpathy's new AutoResearch project and what recursive self-improvement actually means for the rest of us. Plus, Anthropic's massive Time magazine profile reveals just how fast Claude is writing its own code, Meta quietly acquired an AI agent social network called MoltBook, Replit drops V4, Perplexity launches computer use, Gemini finally shows up in Google Docs and Maps, Cloudflare does a full 180 on web scraping, Figure's robot cleans an entire living room, and there's a robot horse.    We're sure that's fine.   AI IS IMPROVING ITSELF AND WE'RE JUST SITTING HERE WATCHING.   #ai #artificialintelligence #aiforhumans  Come to our Discord: https://discord.gg/muD2TYgC8f Join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AIForHumansShow AI For Humans Newsletter: https://aiforhumans.beehiiv.com/ Follow us for more on X @AIForHumansShow Join our TikTok @aiforhumansshow To book us for speaking, please visit our website: https://www.aiforhumans.show/ // Show Links // Karpathy's AutoResearch: Recursive Self-Learning https://x.com/karpathy/status/2031135152349524125?s=20 AutoResearch GitHub Repository https://github.com/karpathy/autoresearch Sam Altman on Multi-Day and Multi-Week AI Agent Work https://youtu.be/sTnl8O_BuuE?si=xaWYyqYbVJYzOvYZ HBR: When Using AI Leads to Brain Fry https://hbr.org/2026/03/when-using-ai-leads-to-brain-fry Anthropic's Big Time Magazine Profile: Claude, the Pentagon, and Disruption https://time.com/article/2026/03/11/anthropic-claude-disruptive-company-pentagon/ Claude's Rapid Shipping Pace https://x.com/claudeai/status/2032124273587077133?s=20 Paperclip Open Sourced: AI-Powered Company Management https://x.com/dotta/status/2029239759428780116?s=20 Meta Acquires MoltBook AI Agent Social Network https://www.axios.com/2026/03/10/meta-facebook-moltbook-agent-social-network Replit V4 Launch https://x.com/amasad/status/2031755113694679094?s=20 Perplexity Computer Use https://x.com/perplexity_ai/status/2031790180521427166?s=20 Claude Code Makes Videos Now https://x.com/josephdviviano/status/2031196768424132881?s=20 Gavin's Claude Code Video Experiment https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2031487595717226955?s=20 Gavin's Claude Code Bio Video https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2031620238689898770?s=20 Gemini Comes to Google Docs and More https://x.com/OfficialLoganK/status/2031374503599567113?s=20 Gemini in Google Maps: Ask Maps with Immersive Navigation https://blog.google/products-and-platforms/products/maps/ask-maps-immersive-navigation/ Gemini Embeddings https://x.com/OfficialLoganK/status/2031411916489298156?s=20 Runway Characters https://x.com/runwayml/status/2031028120971571687?s=20 Cloudflare Launches /Crawl So All Sites Can Be Scraped https://x.com/CloudflareDev/status/2031488099725754821?s=20 Figure Robot Does Full Autonomous Living Room Cleanup https://x.com/Figure_robot/status/2031038981333565949?s=20 Deep Robotics Robot Horse https://x.com/DeepRobotics_CN/status/2031910951465992535?s=20 Real-Time Skeletal Visualization with Three.js https://x.com/nick_bisesi/status/2031728629592289591?s=20 Taking Halo ISO and Getting It to Play on Mac https://x.com/JasonBotterill/status/2031855986303254926?s=20 AI Tennis Prediction https://x.com/phosphenq/status/2031400355167117498 Green Code YouTube Channel: AI Explainers https://www.youtube.com/@Green-Code LotR x Pawn Stars AI Video Mashup https://www.reddit.com/r/aivideo/comments/1rqgolw/wrong_universe_lotr_vs_pawn_stars_ai_mashup/  
OpenAI's GPT-5.4 is the newest state-of-the-art AI model. But for how long? Sam Altman and team have to fend off Dario Amodei's Anthropic in more ways than one.  GPT-5.4 beats humans at computer use, hallucinates 33% less, and costs half what Opus 4.6 does for coding. Meanwhile Anthropic just got blacklisted by the Pentagon, Claude shot to number one in the App Store, and Dario went on CBS looking like he aged five years. Plus Kling Motion Control 3.0, Grok Imagine Extend, Notebook LM cinematic overviews, Ben Affleck's secret AI startup sold to Netflix, and a device that jams AI from recording you. THE KING WEARS THE CROWN UNTIL NEXT TUESDAY. THAT'S HOW THIS WORKS NOW. #ai #ainews #openai Come to our Discord: https://discord.gg/muD2TYgC8f Join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AIForHumansShow AI For Humans Newsletter: https://aiforhumans.beehiiv.com/ Follow us for more on X @AIForHumansShow Join our TikTok @aiforhumansshow To book us for speaking, please visit our website: https://www.aiforhumans.show/ // Show Links //   OpenAI's GPT-5.4 is here… https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-5-4/ CUA (Computer Use Agent) OpenAI Demo https://x.com/OpenAIDevs/status/2029620984853188738?s=20) ChatGPT 5.3 Instant (the emojis are back) https://x.com/OpenAI/status/2028893701427302559?s=20 Dario Amodei Rips Sam, Calls OpenAI "Mendacious" And Other Things About Trump in Memo https://www.theinformation.com/articles/read-anthropic-ceos-memo-attacking-openais-mendacious-pentagon-announcement?rc=c3oojq&shared=d3dcdfe79bb39c22 Sam Altman Response To Backlash  https://x.com/sama/status/2028640354912923739?s=20 Voice Mode For Claude Code https://x.com/trq212/status/2028628570692890800?s=20 AI for Humans Link Blog https://www.aiforhumans.show/linkblog Kling Motion Control 3.0 https://x.com/Kling_ai/status/2029391461880574136?s=20 Solid Examples https://x.com/maxescu/status/2029223608854434000?s=20 Grok Imagine Extend Video https://x.com/grok/status/2028571874188259337?s=20 Gavin's Grok Extended video: https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2029423165571776587?s=20 Cinematic Overviews for NotebookLM https://x.com/NotebookLM/status/2029240601334436080?s=20 Justine example https://x.com/venturetwins/status/2029592813277683750?s=20 Netflix Buys Ben Affleck's Secretive AI Company https://variety.com/2026/film/news/netflix-acquires-ben-affleck-ai-filmmaking-startup-interpositive-1236679498/ Spectre 1 Stops AI Audio Recordings IRL https://x.com/aidaxbaradari/status/2028864606568067491?s=20 The Shape Store Viral Tiktok/IG https://www.tiktok.com/@a.i.solation/video/7612337372667071774?_r=1&_t=ZT-94RCk4vtqYg Bilawal Sidhu's Operation Fury Visualization With Actual Geolocation Data https://youtu.be/rXvU7bPJ8n4?si=n4aoCsgHLQ6bq432 Infinite Favicons https://www.favicons.art/ Open Source Vibe Coded Music Video Maker https://x.com/blizaine/status/2029330454122242106?s=20 New AI For Humans Website! https://www.aiforhumans.show/

I did work with MIT machine learning for analyzing fMRI of brain lesion patients. Particularly in language aphasia sufferers. So I'm familiar with the vector analysis behind TRIBE and knew eventually it would be possible. Hopefully I see Inception in my lifetime lol but then again there were victims of dream manipulation and coma sooo...but I'm excited about Seedance 2.0, Deepseek v4, and please talk about LTX 2.3! The bandwidth wars have begun

The best part is that we can one shot the first episode then get the combined experience on Friday! It's like reading a book; sometimes you have to hear it multiple times to catch every detail! I also play at 0.7 or 0.8 speed to extend the footprint. Way to make some fairly bland updates very interesting.

Please don't get in the habit of apologizing for opinions! I thought Fruit Island was adorable fun like so many goofy things made for a general audience but technically for younger people. You thought it was bland. No corrections needed on neither side, and no justifications neither. But Gavin gallantly defended our slop brethren and sestren 😂. Wasn't sure if this one was dropping but glad it did. I didn't check youtube though...

If you struggle with facial consistency in clips in Grok, be sure to use the same image reference each time. I haven't seen much of any facial or environmental drift except during unusual physical interactions where the model literally has no reference. Like Mary Jane blowing green aura onto women and giving them green heart eyes and their own auras...yes that was a 5 minute image-video gen random whim. I also made Mary Jane the superhero into a fighter and had her fight herself in fake Tekken
