Quick tip: You probably know that you can extend... an AI video by extracting the last frame and using that frame as the initial image for image to video. If you join the videos with Capcut (free video editor) you can use Mix to smooth out the transition which will very quickly improve your result. AI videos here generated with Pika (super impressive text to video) and Minimax (super impressive image to video).show more

OpenAI's Deep Research is getting a run for its... money. Deep Lake was just released, and it's a different take on an AI system that can do deep research on your own data. You can use Deep Lake to build AI search with reasoning on your private and public data. (Look at the attached videos to get an idea of how it works.) If you want to research proprietary and sensitive data, Deep Research won't help you because it's limited to public data. Deep Lake, however, will allow you to use your private data. On top of that, Deep Lake supports multi-modal retrieval from the ground up. It uses vision language models for data ingestion and retrieval so that you can connect any data (PDFs, images, videos, structured data, etc.) You can even use mixed-data queries! Deep Lake can search your data from S3, Dropbox, and GCP. It learns from your queries over time, making the results as relevant to your work as possible!show more

Gemini-powered robot can now effectively debug itself! I've been... obsessed with two main questions in robotics: can robots learn from their own mistakes without humans in the loop, and how much can we leverage synthetic data? Spoiler: yes, and it's surprisingly elegant once you have the right primitives in place. The architecture is fairly simple (and optimized for GPU_Poor users): Component I: Gemini Brain ♊️ - Gemini 2.0 Flash analyzes all training episodes through both camera perspectives - Gemini 2.0 Pro creates a summary of training data, highlighting biases, limitations, etc. - Train policy p0 on this initial data, run evaluation episodes - Ask Gemini to categorize successes vs. failures (more insightful than you'd expect) - Based on both analyses, Gemini generates specific augmentation recommendations What's interesting here isn't that we're using LLMs for robotics - it's that we're closing the loop between perception, failure analysis, and targeted data generation. Component II: Data Generation with Scene Consistency The tricky part was maintaining consistency across both camera perspectives while generating new data. Three current augmentations: - Frame flipping and polarity reversals - Grounded-SAM + OpenCV for object color manipulation - Gemini to identify empty space and generate distractions in the scene …and repeat, ha! I'm using the so100 robot arm and Sarah’s Vintage from Hugging Face. And the APIs and models in Gemini family are Ace! Thank you Logan Kilpatrick Patrick Loeber and team for this.

From International Space Station, we have a unique vantage... point to observe lightning storms from directly above them. Much like from the ground, they appear as rapid, intense flashes that are over as quickly as they started. But, with the help of handheld cameras and a bit of practice (and, admittedly, some luck), we can capture these intense flashes with a very high frame rate then slow them down to see how the lightning propagates. It's lightning, in slow motion. This is one that occurred over Indonesia on 6/28. I shot it for a half second at 1/120 frame rate, so, 60 separate frames. I then compiled those frames into two videos: the first, in real-time, and the second, slowed down so that each frame is a half second to highlight the progression of the flash. Note the incredible burst of light in one frame, which includes what is likely a TLE on the upper left. A TLE, or Transient Luminous Event, is an electrical discharge that happens in the upper atmosphere above lightning storms (if you haven’t seen Ferry Farhan TLE photo from last week, head over to her page). As their name implies, these are transient, or short lived, phenomena – it appeared in only one frame of the sequence, lasting for no more than 1/120th of a second. The last photo is that single frame. Absolutely incredible.show more

How to build your own weather trading bot Every... weather trader making money on Polymarket follows the same 7 steps. Free data. Simple formula. Repeat daily Traders making $20k-$180k all started here free APIs, basic math the crowd ignores, and patience Here's the playbook: Step 1: Pick 2-3 cities Don't try to trade everything. Start with NYC, Chicago, and one international city. Learn how the forecast behaves for those exact locations. Fewer cities = faster feedback loop Start copy-trading any trader even with $10 → Step 2: Pull free forecast data Open-Meteo API free, no API key, updates every 6 hours. NOAA official US government forecasts, 85-90% accurate at 1-2 days. Windy / Ventusky, visual model viewers to sanity-check your data These are the same data sources the top weather traders use. All free. All public Step 3: Turn forecasts into probabilities The market shows 8-12 temperature buckets (25°C, 26°C, 27°C). Your job: calculate the real probability for each bucket based on the forecast Simple method: > take the forecast daily max > assume ±1.5°C error range > simulate 50,000 scenarios > count how many land in each bucket > that's your probability per bucketshow more

there is so much real data just sitting in... the open right now it's almost funny. four years of starlight on every star, a NASA archive that's been free for over a decade, detectors still recording the sky tonight, and barely anyone has a net pointed at any of it. so i pointed one. this is me pulling the planet data, the data loading is the boring part. the net i built to read it, the wall it hit, and what that taught me about where AI goes next, that's the full story, and it drops tonight. the data's public, the tools are free, the box fits on a desk. what's stopping you. you can just do things anon.show more

🚨 THE BIGGEST BOTTLENECK IN AI ISN'T COMPUTING POWER... ANYMORE IT'S MOVING DATA. Instead of laying new cables, Chinese researchers have upgraded existing fiber infrastructure by doing two things at once: Using three wavelength bands (C + L + S) instead of the usual two. Using four cores inside each fiber instead of one. Each core acts like an independent highway, and each band acts like an extra lane on that highway. Together, they’ve reportedly increased transmission capacity per core by nearly 50% and overall data throughput by up to 5×. This matters enormously for AI. Modern AI clusters move terabits of data per second between thousands of GPUs. The biggest bottleneck is often not the chips themselves, but moving data fast enough between them. If you can push 5× more data through the same physical cables, you can train bigger models faster and reduce network congestion. Why this is significant: • It shows multi-core + extended spectrum technology moving from labs into real-world commercial use • The system has already run over 35 km of existing telecom network • It could be especially useful for submarine cables and large-scale data center interconnects • China is also eyeing it for its “Eastern Data, Western Computing” project The deeper implication: We’re reaching the physical limits of how much data we can push through single-core fibers using traditional methods. By combining spatial multiplexing (multiple cores) with spectral multiplexing (more wavelength bands), engineers are finding new ways to keep scaling bandwidth without having to dig up the planet to lay new cables. This kind of breakthrough is quiet but foundational it’s the kind of infrastructure upgrade that will determine how fast AI and cloud computing can actually grow in the coming years. The future of data movement might not require more cables. It might just require smarter ones. How important do you think multi-core and multi-band fiber will be for keeping up with AI’s exploding data demands?

This new skill for Hermes Agent wipes your personal... data off hundreds of broker sites for free, hands-off. It's called Unbroker. I’ve been testing it this week and it's incredible. Here is the full setup: 1. Install it by typing: hermes skills install official/security/unbroker 2. Connect browser automation: Wire up Browserbase so the agent can drive real broker opt-out forms. 3. Do the intake: Give consent, then feed it your info. 4. Fire one prompt: "Use the unbroker skill to remove my data from data brokers. Here is my consent. Run it hands-off." Hundreds of data brokers publish your name, addresses, phone, email, even your relatives. Anyone can find where you live in about ten seconds. The law says brokers have to delete your data if you ask. There's just no easy bulk button for it. Services charge $100’s a year to file the exact requests you could submit yourself for free. Unbroker does the same thing locally, and it's free. It fans out sub-agents, scans every broker site, drafts or sends opt-out emails, and only comes back to you for the ones that need a human. The best part is it loops. Brokers re-list you over time, so it schedules rechecks and re-files on its own. Set it once, it keeps working. One skill, one prompt, dozens of broker sites handled.show more
