Holy moly, TTS is becoming indistinguishable from human voices Cartesia 3 is insane

How did a 20-year-old beat Grok. And ChatGPT. And Perplexity. And Gemini? In part one @blevlabs laid out how: he built a very different architecture to take AI to a new human level. Cognitive architectures, he calls them. I call them AI's with consciousness. Ones that learn, evolve, build themselves, and do so like we do. Part I is here: x.com/Scobleizer/status/1983… In this part two, he goes more into the technology. And this was recorded more than a week ago in my home. Since then his system has gotten way better. An exponentially learning system. It is how we are going to get to AGI.

I was today years old when I discovered stacks on MacOS 🤦‍♂️🍏👨‍💻

My @OpenXR plugin for Unreal Engine is here! Starting 5.7 it helps you unleash XR dev in Unreal without the need of 3rd party vendor plugins! No more wait for Meta, you can use AppSW, Passthrough, Dynamic FFR, Dynamic Res, right now! And there is NO telemetry #ue5 #vr

This is the JPEG moment for AI. Optical compression doesn't just make context cheaper. It makes AI memory architectures viable. Training data bottlenecks? Solved. - 200k pages/day on ONE GPU - 33M pages/day on 20 nodes - Every multimodal model is data-constrained. Not anymore. Agent memory problem? Solved. - The #1 blocker: agents forget - Progressive compression = natural forgetting curve - Agents can now run indefinitely without context collapse RAG might be obsolete. - Why chunk and retrieve if you can compress entire libraries into context? - A 10,000-page corpus = 10M text tokens OR 1M vision tokens - You just fit the whole thing in context Multimodal training data generation: 10x more efficient - If you're OpenAI/Anthropic/Google and you DON'T integrate this, you're 10x slower - This is a Pareto improvement: better AND faster Real-time AI becomes economically viable - Live document analysis - Streaming OCR for accessibility - Real-time translation with visual context - All were too expensive. Not anymore.

Human3R: Everyone Everywhere All at Once Note: I recorded the video from the interactive demo on their project page (linked in the comment below). Abstract (excerpt): Human3R jointly recovers global multi-person SMPL-X bodies ("everyone"), dense 3D scenes ("everywhere"), and camera trajectories in a single forward pass ("all-at-once"). Our method builds upon the 4D online reconstruction model CUT3R and uses parameter-efficient visual prompt tuning to preserve CUT3R's rich spatiotemporal priors while enabling direct readout of multiple SMPL-X bodies. Human3R is a unified model that eliminates heavy dependencies and iterative refinement. After being trained on the relatively small-scale synthetic dataset BEDLAM for just one day on one GPU, it achieves superior performance with remarkable efficiency: it reconstructs multiple humans in a one-shot manner, along with 3D scenes, in one stage, at real-time speed (15 FPS) with a low memory footprint (8 GB).

Real time online 3D reconstruction of 3D scene and humans represented with SMPL. fanegg.github.io/Human3R/ I don't get tired of looking at these results

A former Meta engineer has built a head-tracked system that uses just your front-facing camera to turn any screen into a 3D window. No glasses, no headset – just real-time motion parallax that makes flat displays feel alive. Learn how it works: 80.lv/articles/former-meta-e…

this might be the coolest blogpost I ever written I dove deep into: - player detection with RF-DETR - player tracking with SAM2 - team clustering with SigLIP and K-means - number recognition with SmolVLM2 and ResNet I hope you'll like it link: blog.roboflow.com/identify-b…

I finally think this platform has died 💀

I reimagined my living room with World Labs. Gemini helped design it, World Labs generated the 3D environment, and VPS localized it to my space 1:1 scale. I can now step into a persistent redesign in mixed reality and explore it as though it exists physically. How it was built:

Ai glasses with HUD and EMG, now we are getting somewhere! #inclusive #tech

Surface EMG is magical. Meta managed to squeeze this tech into a svelte wristband to pair with their Ray-Ban AR glasses. Here’s how it works. Imagine walking around your home controlling any display / device with Vision Pro like touch gestures.

Can VR illusions affect our physiology? Researchers shifted participants' perceived body midline by replacing their right hand with a virtual left hand. This caused significant left-hand temperature decreases and altered skin conductance responses. doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.202…

A software package called Deep-Live-Cam has gone viral. This tool can take a person's face from a single photo and seamlessly apply it to a live webcam feed, accurately mirroring the pose, lighting, and expressions of the person in the video.

Excited to share that I’ve joined @cvssp_research @UniOfSurrey as Research Fellow in Advanced Audio Systems, working across immersive audio R&D in the in CVSSP and the CoSTAR National Lab @PinewoodStudios exploring #SpatialAudio, #VirtualProduction & #Realtime #audio futures with some brilliant minds. Let’s build 👇

Had the pleasure of attending Miguel’s lecture in person @SociodigFutures really eye opening as an engineer in this field of AgeTech #inclusion
