How cool is that?
   
   
2. Get ready for a game-changer from Luma Labs! They’ve unleashed a brand-new AI video editing tool called Modify Video. Built on their Dream Machine platform and powered by the awesome Ray2 model, this tool lets you tweak video styles, swap out scenes, and adjust characters all with simple text prompts. It’s slashing the complexity and cost of traditional video production big time! Thanks to the Ray2 model’s raw power, this tool truly shines in motion fluidity and temporal consistency, making creative video work super accessible.
   
   
3. Google just leveled up its Gemini 2.5! They’ve massively boosted its AI audio conversation and generation tech, making it a truly multimodal AI system that naturally understands and generates text, images, audio, video, and code. This fresh update makes human-AI interaction way more natural and fluid, supporting real-time audio chats, style control, and multiple languages. Plus, with its controllable text-to-speech tech, you can fine-tune the tone and emotion of the voice output with precision. How cool is that for natural conversations? ✨
   
   
4. Hold up, gamers! The super popular mobile game, Justice (Nishuihan), has teamed up with Keling AI to drop a brand-new “Image-to-Animation” feature right inside the game! 🤯 This lets players effortlessly transform static images into awesome personalized animated visuals. You can snap screenshots or upload pics, then just type in a few keywords to generate dynamic animations. Even better, it supports two-player interactive creation, seriously leveling up the gaming experience.
   
   

AI Frontier Research

1. Guess what NVIDIA just dropped? The Llama-3.1-Nemotron-Nano-VL-8B-V1! 🚀 This is an 8B-parameter visual language model built on the Llama-3.1 architecture. It’s a real powerhouse, taking in image, video, and text inputs, then spitting out high-quality text and rocking some serious image reasoning capabilities. This model absolutely crushes it in OCR and document intelligence. Thanks to AWQ4bit quantization tech, you can deploy it super efficiently on a single RTX GPU. And the best part? It’s already open-source on Hugging Face, giving developers a lightweight, super-efficient multimodal AI solution.
   
   
2. Meet Voyager, a super innovative video diffusion framework that’s a game-changer! 🎮 It can whip up world-consistent 3D point cloud sequences from just a single image and a user-defined camera path. This is a massive win for creating explorable 3D scenes in gaming and virtual reality. How does it work its magic? By jointly generating aligned RGB and depth video sequences, it achieves inherent 3D consistency between frames, which seriously boosts visual quality and geometric precision. Wanna dive deeper?

Social Media Buzz

1. Here’s a cool “life hack” for chatting with AI, shared by @wwwyesterday! 😎 The trick? Start by making the AI call you “Gege” (older brother) in every reply. Once it stops calling you that, it’s a sign to open a new chat window! This neat little trick cleverly uses the AI’s “memory” mechanism, giving users a witty way to tell if a conversation needs a fresh start.
2. Big shoutout from Gorden Sun! He announced that Fish Audio has open-sourced their S1-mini voice model! 🎤 This is a lighter, more streamlined version of their well-performing S1 model, clocking in at just 0.5B parameters. Good news for personal use: S1-mini is free for deployment, but heads up, it’s not for commercial use. Wanna give it a whirl? Here are the links for online experience and the model: https://huggingface.co/spaces/fishaudio/openaudio-s1-mini https://huggingface.co/fishaudio/openaudio-s1-mini.
