📢Pix2NPHM: Learning to Regress NPHM Reconstructions From a Single Image📢 We directly regress neural parametric head models (NPHMs) from a single image — fast, stable, and significantly more expressive than classical 3DMMs such as FLAME. Face tracking & 3D reconstruction are often limited by the representational capacity of PCA-based face models. By lifting NPHMs to a first-class reconstruction primitive, we enable more accurate geometry, richer expressions, and finer animation control. Pix2NPHM obtains fast and reliable NPHM reconstructions on real-world data. Inference-time optimization against surface normals and canonical point maps can further increase fidelity. Key to successful and generalized training of our ViT-based network are: (1) large-scale registration of existing 3D head datasets, and (2) self-supervised training on vast in-the-wild 2D video datasets using pseudo ground-truth surface normals. Finally, we show that geometry-aware pretraining on pixel-aligned reconstruction tasks significantly outperforms generic visual pretraining (e.g., DINO-style features) in terms of generalization. 🌍 🎥 Great work by Simon Giebenhain, Tobias Kirschstein, Liam Schoneveld, Davide Davoli, Zhe Chen

$📢Announcing our 3D head avatar benchmark📢 Two tasks with hidden test sets: - Dynamic Novel View Synthesis on Heads - Monocular FLAME-driven Head Avatar Reconstruction Our goal is to make research on 3D head avatars more comparable and ultimately increase the realism of digital humans. The benchmark studies distinct phenomena of 3D head avatar creation, such as extreme facial expressions, slow motion captures of shaking long hair, or complicated light reflection and refraction patterns of glasses. The two benchmark tasks assess two core desiderata of 3D avatars: While the novel view synthesis challenge focuses on best possible rendering quality of complex moving scenes, the avatar animation challenge is concerned with how well a driving signal is translated into an avatar. Evaluations are light-weight and consist of diverse video recordings from the popular NeRSemble dataset with a hidden test set. Participation in the benchmark is therefore straight-forward and requires only 5 reconstructions per task.

Neuralink Integration with ANKTIVA for Revolutionary Immunotherapy Elon Musk, a visionary collaboration opportunity by Dr. Sarabi and Grok. Dear Mr Musk: Good morning sir! I would like to bring to your attention the remarkable work of Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, who has developed a groundbreaking therapy, Anktiva, capable of supercharging key immune molecules to combat cancer and COVID-19. In a recent discussion with Tucker Carlson, Dr. Soon-Shiong described this advance as akin to the “E=mc²” of medicine—the discovery of “God’s equation,” a biological key that has eluded us for half a century until now. Just as Tesla has revolutionized the automotive and environmental industries, and SpaceX has advanced the expansion of humanity into a multi-planetary species to ensure our long-term survival, Anktiva represents a comparable paradigm shift in medicine, safeguarding human health and endurance. Given your shared commitment to advancing humanity, I respectfully inquire whether you might consider extending your support to Dr. Soon-Shiong in this critical pursuit. Moreover, I propose exploring the integration of Neuralink, employing the stepwise protocol outlined below, in collaboration with Dr. Soon-Shiong. Such a partnership could propel an unprecedented advancement in medicine and the future of humankind. Grok has developed a preliminary conceptual integration of Neuralink to enhance and supercharge IL-15 production 1/7: Identify Target Neural Circuits • Map the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus • Trace efferent projections from the PVN to the intermediolateral cell column (IML) in the spinal cord. • Identify sympathetic nerve fibers innervating the spleen and lymph nodes. • Map vagus nerve branches terminating in gut-associated lymphoid tissue and the hepatic portal system. 2/7: Implant Neuralink and Integrate with Neural Pathways • Place Neuralink electrodes in the PVN and dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus, using extended threads for subcortical/brainstem access. • Configure for recording/stimulation to modulate autonomic outflow to the IML at thoracic spinal levels. • Establish central control over peripheral pathways (e.g., splenic/vagus nerves) via targeted brain stimulation. 3/7: Develop Stimulation Protocols • Program Neuralink for high-frequency stimulation to the PVN for sympathetic activation. • Apply low-frequency patterned stimulation to the dorsal motor nucleus to engage feedback loops. • Modulate splenic/vagal pathways with phase-locked cycles through central interfaces. 4/7: Initiate Immune Cell Activation • Stimulate pathways to induce IFN-γ and TNF-α release in spleen/lymph nodes. • Trigger IL-15 transcription/translation in dendritic cells, monocytes, and epithelial cells. • Monitor for increased membrane-bound IL-15/IL-15Rα complex formation. 5/7: Enhance Local IL-15 Presentation • Concentrate stimulation at tumor/inflammation sites. • Promote immune cell clustering via chemokine/adhesion molecule induction. • Sustain localized IL-15/IL-15Rα trans-presentation to NK and CD8+ T cells. 6/7: Implement Real-Time Monitoring and Feedback • Record neural/immune biomarkers continuously via Neuralink telemetry. • Adjust stimulation based on IL-15 levels and NK/T cell activity. • Set safety thresholds to avoid excessive immune activation. 7/7: Synchronize with Immunotherapy • Time stimulation with IL-15 superagonists or adoptive therapies. • Evaluate synergies using immune monitoring/imaging. • Optimize based on patient responses.

I am blown away 🤯. Check this out! CameraCtrl II: Dynamic Scene Exploration via Camera-controlled Video Diffusion Models TL;DR: "To enable broader exploration of dynamic scenes, our model can generate new video clips of the same scene based on previously generated content and user-provided camera trajectories. This approach maintains dynamic capabilities, accurate camera control, and scene consistency throughout the extended exploration." "Our model enables precise camera control across diverse scenarios while preserving dynamic scene elements, e.g." "Our method can generate videos with strong 3D consistency, which enables high-quality 3D reconstruction using the camera-controlled videos." Contributions: 1) A systematic data curation pipeline for constructing a dynamic video dataset with camera trajectory annotations; 2) A lightweight camera control injection module and corresponding training strategy that preserves dynamic video generation capabilities while adding camera control effect; 3) A clip-wise autoregressive generation recipe that enables extended range exploration of generated scenes.

Model-Free Reinforcement Learning (MFRL) has been alluring, especially with supercharged compute with physics on GPU. However, the methods use 0-th order gradients, and are often not the best optimizers. Can we do better than PPO in continuous control for robotics? Turns out yes! 🥳 tl;dr: Faster, better RL than PPO in continuous control 💪 The answer lies in using more information from the simulation. We are juicing the simulation on GPU as it is, why not use it for gradients as well? This has been a driving question in a series of our works. We first studied this problem in ICLR 2022 paper on Short Horizon Actor Critic Naive gradient based methods are stuck in local minima and have exploding/vanishing gradients. SHAC solved this problem truncated rollouts and model based value estimation, where the model is Differentiable Sim. This boosted sample efficiency and wall-clock time immensely especially in high dimensional systems such as humanoids Yet, given enough compute PPO often caught up. Our follow up paper on on Adaptive Horizon Actor Critic at ICML 2024 discovers the cause and provides a fix. However, we find that even when given ground-truth dynamics, not all gradients are useful due to sample error. 1st-Order Model-Based Reinforcement Learning methods employing differentiable simulation provide gradients with reduced variance but are susceptible to bias in scenarios involving stiff dynamics, such as physical contact. We find that back-propagating through contact and long trajectories drastically reduces gradient accuracy. Using this insight, we propose AHAC to dynamically adapt its roll-out horizon to avoid differentiating through stiff contact. AHAC is a first-order model-based RL algorithm that learns high-dimensional tasks in minutes (wall clock) and outperforms PPO by 40%, even in the limit of data provided to PPO. This work is led by Ignat Georgiev alongside Krishnan Srinivasan, Jie Xu, Eric Heiden and ample assistance from warp team at NVIDIA Robotics (Miles Macklin)

We asked the immigration rights advocate PAXIS about this recent ICE incident. 🚨 Can ICE stop you based on skin color or accent alone? PAXIS says: Legally, no. Constitutionally, never. But a 2025 Supreme Court ruling now lets agents treat race, accent, and job site as “factors” in building suspicion. That’s not justice — that’s the door to legalized racial profiling. 📉 This isn’t just about immigration. It’s the erosion of everyone’s rights, and of the Constitution itself — with impacts far deeper than most realize. 🎯 Accent ≠ suspicion 🎯 Brown skin ≠ probable cause 📢 We have the right to resist. 👉 Help fight ICE and defend the Constitution:

The most detailed 3D reconstruction of a cell ever created. Blows my mind every time. But what exactly are we looking at here? The average human cell contains: ~ 15-20 total distinct organelle types, totalling between ~1-10 million working together per cell. All these nano-machines in the cell are made up of proteins. ~ 8,000-10,000 distinct types of unique proteins, adding up to between 40 million - 10 trillion total proteins making up all those cellular systems. ~ 10,000 - 15,000 distinct types of RNA shuttling information around the cell, totalling up to ~10 million RNA molecules moving around the cell simultaneously. ~ Billions of Lipid molecules packed together into the cell membrane, which is also packed tightly with millions more protein-based nano-machines. And let's not forget billions of lines of DNA information to build and run it all. That's TRILLIONS of of individual molecular pieces working together to make a single cell function. That means there is more complexity in a single cell than humanity's largest cities. And people still believe this wasn't Divinely Designed. This is God's Glory on Display. But to make the point. A cell couldn't have evolved from some nebulous simpler "protocell" because even the simplest cells still require massive complexity. The "simplest" cell ever created was engineered by scientists knocking out pieces of a functional cell until it stopped functioning. Here is what they found is the absolute necessary minimal requirements of a cell to function: - Over ~531,000 lines of coded DNA information - 473 total genes to create hundreds of unique protein products (they later added 19 genes back in because the cell was so weak) - Hundreds of thousands of total proteins all working together - Extensive regulatory networks guiding all these interactions If the cell doesn't have all these systems in place, from the start... it doesn't live. Cell rely on an intricate network of complex systems, which are themselves built from complex interconnected pieces woven together into an incomprehensibly complex web of functionilty. Only intelligence has ever been observed creation vast interconnected systems like this. Life was clearly Created. It couldn't happen any other way.

Artistic reconstruction of the “Homo 1-KNH” plastered skull from Kfar HaHoresh, dating to the Levant Neolithic period around 9,000 years ago. The skull marked as KNH-Homo 1 was discovered in a probable cache, sandwiched between two plastered surfaces and in association with a headless gazelle carcass (Goring-Morris et al., 1995a,b; Hershkovitz et al., 1995). The skull and plaster surfaces were excellently preserved, although minor deformation and compaction had occurred, especially in the occipital region, due to the weight of overlying sediments over time. However, the plastered surfaces were almost completely intact and suffered only minor distortion (Goring-Morris et al., 1995a). The skull, comprising only the cranium, belonged to an adult male of about 25 years of age. Facial features, including the nose, mouth, chin, eyes, and cheeks (but not the ears), had been modelled. The resulting visage is that of a squat, strongly pronounced brachycephalic individual, particularly when viewed from the front. The entire plastered surface was covered with a red wash, though there is no evidence that this extended over the exposed areas of the skull. This skull is remarkably similar to the three modelled skulls from ‘Ain Ghazal (Griffin, Grissom & Rollefson, 1998), in its iconography, although the construction methods differ. The overall countenance of the modelled face changes markedly depending on the angle or perspective from which it is viewed. From a slightly raised and offset viewpoint, the skull almost presents a Buddha-like image. Under these circumstances, it seems unlikely that the overall visage was intended to, or could, accurately portray a lifelike image of the individual. However, certain features, such as the cleft chin, aquiline nose, puffy cheeks, and eyes, may reflect realistic facial characteristics of the individual (Yuval Goren, Adrian Nigel Goring-Morris, Irina Segal, 2001).

Artistic reconstruction of the “Homo 1-KNH” plastered skull from Kfar HaHoresh, dating to the Levant Neolithic period around 9,000 years ago. The skull marked as KNH-Homo 1 was discovered in a probable cache, sandwiched between two plastered surfaces and in association with a headless gazelle carcass (Goring-Morris et al., 1995a,b; Hershkovitz et al., 1995). The skull and plaster surfaces were excellently preserved, although minor deformation and compaction had occurred, especially in the occipital region, due to the weight of overlying sediments over time. However, the plastered surfaces were almost completely intact and suffered only minor distortion (Goring-Morris et al., 1995a). The skull, comprising only the cranium, belonged to an adult male of about 25 years of age. Facial features, including the nose, mouth, chin, eyes, and cheeks (but not the ears), had been modelled. The resulting visage is that of a squat, strongly pronounced brachycephalic individual, particularly when viewed from the front. The entire plastered surface was covered with a red wash, though there is no evidence that this extended over the exposed areas of the skull. This skull is remarkably similar to the three modelled skulls from ‘Ain Ghazal (Griffin, Grissom & Rollefson, 1998), in its iconography, although the construction methods differ. The overall countenance of the modelled face changes markedly depending on the angle or perspective from which it is viewed. From a slightly raised and offset viewpoint, the skull almost presents a Buddha-like image. Under these circumstances, it seems unlikely that the overall visage was intended to, or could, accurately portray a lifelike image of the individual. However, certain features, such as the cleft chin, aquiline nose, puffy cheeks, and eyes, may reflect realistic facial characteristics of the individual (Yuval Goren, Adrian Nigel Goring-Morris, Irina Segal, 2001).

The market heavily discounted BasedAI, pricing in execution risk for what’s arguably the most ambitious AI x blockchain project ever. Now? Mainnet is live. 𝔹rains are minting. The bulk of the risk is behind us. A bridge built together with the first major exchange partner is set to go live soon. And very soon, self evolving Creatures will begin competing in the Brain Arena — solving problems, building strategies and evolving 𝔹asedAI with every pulse. This isn’t just another AI agent plugged into X or a protocol to launch such simple automations. 𝔹asedAI is a fully decentralized EVM compatible Layer 1 network where AI isn’t a feature — it’s the fabric. The network learns, builds, and evolves on its own! ⚡ 𝔹rains: Tokenized intelligence you can stake, activate, and build with. Not tools — ecosystems of intelligence. ⚡ The Nexus: A 3D neural interface like no other. Zoom, rotate, and dive into 𝔹asedAI’s living network. Trace its evolution, feel its pulse, and shape its future in real time. ⚡ Dynamic scarcity: Inflation slashed -20% post-launch. As the network grows and more 𝔹rains come online, emissions scale proportionally, creating a dynamic inflation model. When fewer 𝔹rains are active, inflation remains low — similar to how BTC mining adjusts difficulty based on network size. Pepecoin burns required to mint 𝔹rains add scarcity and sustainability to the model. "At $190M, $BASED isn’t just undervalued — it’s a heist waiting to be realized. Risk? Down bad. Reward? Way up.

1 Neural Network + Obsidian + Karpathy’s 1-file method = the most unhinged second brain build of 2026. It remembers everything you’ve ever done, and it costs $0 on top of what you already pay. The base is Karpathy’s append and review: 1 giant note, new thoughts stack on top, old ones sink, every few days you reread and pull the survivors back up. No folders, no tags, no plugins the rereading IS the system, because review is what turns storage into thinking. The flaw: past 10,000 lines, no human rereads anything. That’s where the neural network takes over. You keep the note in Obsidian 1 vault, everything dumps to the top: ideas, links, meeting fragments, half-thoughts. You never organize, you only dump. It all lives as plain markdown on your own disk, and that detail is the whole trick. Because now you point Claude Code at the vault folder, and it reads every line you’ve ever written. “What did I think about pricing in March.” “Find the 3 ideas I keep circling.” “What did I drop that deserves a second look.” It answers from YOUR notes, with quotes, in 15 seconds. Then once a week, 1 prompt closes the loop: read the last 7 days, surface the 5 entries worth pulling back up, flag anything that contradicts what I wrote a month ago. The model does the sinking and surfacing Karpathy did by hand, and the note stays alive instead of turning into a graveyard. Week 1 feels like nothing. Week 4 you hit the first “I already solved this in January.” Month 3 you consult your past self more than Google. Most second brains die in 11 days under 40 plugins and 200 folders. This one is 1 file and a loop, and it compounds because dumping takes 0 discipline. Notion stores what you thought. This thing argues back.

Free NVIDIA GPU with 16 GB VRAM GPU for Running Local LLMs! If you want to master local LLMs but you're waiting until you can afford a $1,500 GPU, you're honestly not going to make it. The open source AI ecosystem is moving way too fast for you to wait on your budget to catch up. Especially when you can build a bleeding edge inference engine from scratch right now, completely for free. You don't need a heavy local rig to start. Google is literally letting you use an enterprise grade NVIDIA Tesla T4 GPU for $0/hour. At standard cloud computing rates (~$0.20/hr), Google Colab’s 4 hour daily free tier hands you roughly $24 worth of data center tier GPU compute every single month. And most people just waste it. Let’s talk about the hardware you get access to for free. The NVIDIA Tesla T4 is an absolute workhorse: - Architecture: NVIDIA Turing (TU104) - VRAM: 16GB GDDR6 (320 GB/s bandwidth) - Compute: 320 Tensor Cores | 2560 CUDA Cores - Performance: 130 TOPS INT8 | 8.1 TFLOPS FP32 - Power: Sipping energy at a max 70W TDP This is the exact same hardware I used to run DeepMind's Gemma 4 26B A4B QAT MoE at a 250,000 context window without a single Out Of Memory (OOM) crash. If you have a web browser and 10 minutes, you have everything you need. I’ve put together a fully documented, cell by cell Google Colab notebook that teaches you exactly how to do this. Here is what the notebook actually teaches you: - How to provision an Ubuntu Linux environment with CUDA 13.0 and verify your driver stack. - How to pull the source code and compile the latest llama.cpp C++ binaries from scratch, specifically optimizing the build for your exact GPU using the -DCMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES=native flag. - How to directly download quantized local LLMs (GGUF format) straight from HuggingFace using the CLI. - How to manage 16GB VRAM limits, offload neural network layers to the GPU, and push massive context windows. Compile raw llama.cpp, ollama run a model, or spin up the LM Studio CLI. Pick whatever stack you are comfortable with. just start building. No hardware. No credit card. No excuses. Bookmark this post right now so you don't lose the tutorial. Even if you don't have time to run it today, you are going to want this workflow in your engineering toolkit. The link to the free Colab Notebook is in the comments below. Lemme know if you need more tutorials like this.
