GPT-6 ASTRA turned a FLOOR PLAN into a 3D House in Blender
GPT-6 ASTRA turned a FLOOR PLAN into a 3D House in Blender Sep 24, 2026 01:40:24 Claude Opus 5.5 just dropped, so we put it against GPT-6 Astra on our own benchmark. It modelled, textured, rigged and animated an octopus in Blender from scratch in about two hours, then tried to rebuild the same Vancouver building Astra nailed two weeks ago. Then the big one: we spent three days turning a Zillow listing into a walkable 3D house in Unreal Engine with a floor-plan dashboard hooked
You can now make your own Higgsfield? 👀😮
You can now make your own Higgsfield? 👀😮 Sep 19, 2026 00:57:49 Higgsfield says it open-sourced its 5.4 billion dollar app. It's fake. We went into the GitHub and all you get is a thin UI that calls their paid API. No weights, no training, no way to build anything without paying them. We break down what they actually released and how creator networks make a launch like this look organic. Then a miracle: Neuralink restored speech for a man who lost it to AL
Create UNLIMITED Camera Angles with AI 🤯
Create UNLIMITED Camera Angles with AI 🤯 Sep 16, 2026 00:53:15 You can now shoot one angle and generate the rest. AI multicam turns a single talking-head recording into side shots, close-ups, overheads and drone moves with Seedance 2.5, and we break down how creators are doing it, the two-camera trick that stops close-ups from morphing, and how much AI footage you can blend in before people notice. Then the letter that had Sam Altman and Elon Musk agreeing wi
We used GPT-6 + Blender & Unreal Engine to recreate a HOUSE Listing in 3D 🚀
We used GPT-6 + Blender & Unreal Engine to recreate a HOUSE Listing in 3D 🚀 Sep 9, 2026 01:09:14 We spent 48 hours training GPT-6 Astra to make motion graphics in After Effects, and then had it recreate Higgsfield and Iman Gadzi style animations from scratch, with pre-training and post-training versions side by side so you can see what it took. Then we took a real Zillow listing and had Astra read the floor plan and rebuild the house in Blender and Unreal Engine. We show three community proje
GPT-6 Astra just stole my job? 🤯
GPT-6 Astra just stole my job? 🤯 Sep 5, 2026 00:38:31 GPT-6 Astra is out, and it is the first frontier model to put 3D front and centre. We got access two hours before the show, so we photographed a building across the street on an iPhone, gave Astra one short prompt, and watched it take over the computer and rebuild the whole block in Blender, ornaments, street signs and all, with zero iterations. Then it edited the screen recording too. The second
NVDIA DLSS 5: Game Changer or SLOP?
NVDIA DLSS 5: Game Changer or SLOP? Sep 2, 2026 01:10:46 Matt Workman, creative technologist at fal, joins us to break down H3 Max, the model that makes 15 second AI videos in 5 seconds, and fal.live, a livestream where viewers prompt what happens next in real time. We get into how DLSS 5 actually works before its release with NBA 2K27, why the leaked GTA footage looked wrong, and the new wave of world models from Runway and World Labs that turn a photo
This is the FASTEST AI Video model [MINMAX H3 MAX]
This is the FASTEST AI Video model [MINMAX H3 MAX] Aug 29, 2026 00:49:33 AI video had a speed problem. The best paid models take a minute or two per clip, and running one free on our own machine took us 20 minutes. Now there is a version that makes a 15 second clip in about five seconds, and we tested it against real Seedance shots using their exact prompts. Then ZAI released a model that autonomously built a full 3D kitchen inside Blender over 16 hours, though we have
Seedance 2.5 vs FREE Local AI Video model 🤯
Seedance 2.5 vs FREE Local AI Video model 🤯 Aug 14, 2026 01:12:21 OpenAI announced an ultra fast mode for GPT Sol 5.6 running at 14 times the speed, and the benchmark numbers are hard to believe. Then the main event: Higgsfield open-sourced the prompts and references behind their two million dollar AI feature film, so we took those exact shots and recreated them on a free model running locally on our own computer, using a platform we built ourselves. The results
NEW AI + 3D Model RESULTS are Unreal 🤯
NEW AI + 3D Model RESULTS are Unreal 🤯 Aug 11, 2026 00:59:49 For years the objection to AI 3D was that it could not make clean, production-ready topology. That objection is falling fast, and we show the wireframes to prove it. In a surprise move, Kitbash and Greyscale Gorilla just bought Sketchfab and ArtStation from Epic Games. We tested Grok Imagine 2.0's precise image editing live and asked whether Photoshop is still necessary. And Meta dropped Muse
Can this SOLVE control in AI VIDEOS?
Can this SOLVE control in AI VIDEOS? Aug 7, 2026 00:48:57 Autodesk Flow Studio just released 3D Editor and Canvas which is a world generation, character creation, motion capture, and camera animation tool brought into one web-based editor, and we rebuilt a full previs from a single Red Dead Redemption image to test it. Seedance 2.5 is finally on all platforms after launching only on CapCut, with 30-second generation and up to 50 references. And Minimax H
3D Artists React to Ramayana 🤯
3D Artists React to Ramayana 🤯 Aug 5, 2026 01:12:38 ConnectedClaude to Unreal Engine, and everyone asked the same thing: how much did it cost? So this time we tried a free local model running on our own machines, no subscription and no data leaving the computer. The result taught us exactly what you are really paying for with Claude and ChatGPT. Then we tested invideo Agent 2, an AI creative director that storyboards a whole commercial from a singl
We Tested Seedance 2.5 (Honest Review)
We Tested Seedance 2.5 (Honest Review) Jul 31, 2026 00:54:20 Seedance 2.5 launched exclusively through CapCut, so we bought an account and pushed it through real editing tests, swapping a can, changing a body, and moving the camera, and we show the wins and the failures. Flux 3.0 Preview got the exact same prompt through the Hermes agent, and the results were very different. And we finally connected Claude to Unreal Engine through MCP and had it rebuild the
