Today, Box is announcing major new AI agent capabilities to let customers tap into the full value of their unstructured data. First, we’re announcing all new updates to the Box AI Studio to make it even easier to build AI agents that tap into your enterprise content for any job function, business process, or industry specific use case. We are also expanding our set of foundational agents that customers will be able to use to work with their enterprise content, including new features like search and research on unstructured data. Next, we’re announcing Box Extract to enable customers to use AI agents seamlessly for complex data extraction from any type of document or content. This makes it easier than ever to pull out data from contracts, invoices, research data, marketing assets, medical charts, and more. Finally, we’re introducing Box Automate, a new workflow automation solution within Box that lets you deploy AI agents across enterprise content-centric workflows. With Box Automate, you can design your business process in a simple drag and drop builder and then drop in AI agents at any step in the process. This ensures agents execute tasks at the right steps in a workflow every time. Best of all, our AI agents and workflow tools are designed to work across any system our customers work within, whether it’s leveraging pre-built integrations, Box APIs, or the new Box MCP Server. Ultimately, all of these capabilities come together to transform how companies can work with their enterprise content. Software has historically only been good at automating work that deals with structured data, which is why ERP, CRM, and HR systems have been mainstays of enterprise software for so long. The data in these systems fits neatly into a database, and the workflows are very ripe for automation. But it turns out most of the work in the world deals with unstructured data. It’s ideating through research documents, working with a client on contracts, reviewing details for a new product launch, looking at a patient’s healthcare record to make a diagnosis, working through due diligence documents for an M&A deal, and so on. For the first time ever, we can begin to bring all new insights and automation to this work with AI agents. At Box, we’re incredibly excited to be on this journey to help customers transform how they work with their most important data.

Here's a demo on a project I've been developing and working on for the past 9 months. Called NightBeacon. Using it now in production, getting released fully this week. Our own internally trained models on our own infrastructure (no third party). Trained on our analysts knowledge and behavior (TP/FPs retrain model to be smarter with context). Handles emails (including tonality), attachments, various malicious filetypes (DLL/exe/svg/lnk/etc). Can send it full evtx exports, packet dumps, zip files, whatever. Universal log handler can parse any log from any source, EDR, SIEM, etc. Deep-Scan / sandbox detonation + shellcode emulation with IOC extraction automatically. Automatic playbook generation, full AI-based recommendations custom to the attack. Synthetic training data layer - meaning when it trains on a specific attack at a customer, generates training data based on the customers data but never has any of the actual data or information about the customer in it. No customer information. For areas its weak at, bubbles up and automatically kicks off research to become smarter on a specific topic. Supports GenAI based rulesets (to improve confidence), over 900+ YARA rules, full MITRE ATT&CK integration. Integrated into our SOAR - enriches data, creates playbooks for analysts, MTTR reduces substantially, false positives reduced, true positive escalations. Not using our MDR service? Can integrate into your EDR or SIEM for automatic enrichment and escalation of attacks. Built to help respond faster. More accurately. Be intelligent based on our analysts intelligence. Stop attackers much much faster. Coming soon.. #BinaryDefense

Claude Code cannot read 300 files at once. So someone built a system that lets it control NotebookLM from the terminal instead. The results are wild. Here is the full workflow nobody is talking about: The Setup → Claude Code connects to NotebookLM via a command line interface → Claude searches YouTube, finds relevant videos, uploads them as sources automatically → NotebookLM processes up to 300 sources simultaneously and returns cited, grounded answers → Everything syncs back into your Obsidian vault with passage-level citations you can click to verify Why This Changes Research Forever → No more 20 browser tabs you never close → No more copy-pasting outputs into random notes → No more hallucinated answers with no sources to back them up → 60% of citations verified as strong matches in accuracy audits - answers are grounded in real data What Claude Can Do From the Terminal → Search YouTube for relevant videos on any topic and rank by relevance → Create a new NotebookLM notebook and add 20 sources in parallel automatically → Ask questions and export cited answers directly into Obsidian with wikilinks → Set custom personas per notebook - concise, no filler, no preamble → Generate audio overviews and save them as MP3 files into your vault → Build mind maps, flashcard decks, and research dashboards from your sources → Search arXiv for academic papers and feed them directly into NotebookLM → Upload competitor blog posts, podcast episodes, PDFs, and your own vault notes The Obsidian Output → Every answer arrives with clickable citations that link to the exact passage in the source video or article → Graph view shows connections between all 20 sources and the topics they share → Q&A log tracks every question asked and the grounded response received → Source dashboard shows citation frequency, topics extracted, and which questions each source answered Use Cases Worth Building Today → Academic research with arXiv papers, full citation traceability → Competitor analysis from their YouTube channels and blog posts → Company knowledge base for onboarding, new employees ask NotebookLM instead of interrupting teammates → Podcast research, feed 4-hour Lex Fridman episodes and ask what's new in AI this week → Personal second brain, 300 daily notes uploaded and queryable in one notebook Before this system existed you needed 20 tabs, hours of manual reading, and no guarantee the answers were real. Now you type one prompt in the terminal and Claude does all of it for you. The research stack of 2026 is not a browser. It is a terminal connected to everything

We are excited to share our latest work, "Learning on the Fly: Rapid Policy Adaptation via Differentiable Simulation", where a policy learns to adapt in the real world to unknown disturbances within 5 seconds, both with and without explicit state estimation, directly from visual features. Code released! PDF: Project Page: Starting from a simple analytical dynamics model, the system continuously learns residual dynamics from real-world data and embeds the refined model into a differentiable simulator. This enables fast, gradient-based policy updates that are far more sample-efficient than classical #ReinforcementLearning. We demonstrate rapid adaptation in <5 seconds in agile quadrotor control under challenging conditions, including added payloads, wind disturbances, and large sim-to-real gaps. In real-world experiments, our method reduces hovering error by up to 81% compared to L1-MPC and 55% compared to PPO-based adaptive methods. It also operates directly from visual features without explicit state estimation.

What It's Like Building a Proprietary Power Trading Firm with Cory Paddock Cory Paddock (Cory Paddock) has been trading the physical power grid since the early 2000s. He built his own firm from scratch in 2014 — trading his own capital — and has navigated every major paradigm shift in U.S. energy markets since coal dominated the grid. "It's the perfect amount of darkness. The information is public — but it's in the dark." We cover: - How Cory built a point of view on paradigm shifts before the market caught up - Why power trading sits at the intersection of economics & physics — and why that matters for edge - Why backtesting more than a few years of power data is basically useless — the grid isn't the same grid - LMP & locational marginal pricing: how physical grid constraints turn into alpha if you know where to look - The 5–10 trades that make your year — and why forcing setups in the lean periods kills you - How GBE stripped pay uncertainty out of trader comp so people can just focus on trading well - What it actually feels like watching your own money swing in real-time — and when it stops feeling that way Thanks so much Cory for coming on Odds on Open!

At WAIC 2025, Shanghai Electric also unveiled a new joint venture with Johnson Electric for next-gen humanoid robotics and showcased its “LINGKE” dual-arm robot. Recently, Hangzhou-based Unitree Robotics launched the R1 humanoid with 26 joints for $5,900, showcasing athletic feats like cartwheels, running, and quick recovery. Smart factory assistant Shanghai Electric claims SUYUAN, equipped with 38 degrees of freedom (DoF) and a powerful 275 TOPS on-device computing processor, delivers fluid, human-like movements and high-precision operations across various industrial scenarios. Its advanced articulation and real-time processing capabilities make it highly adaptable, enabling smooth execution of complex tasks in dynamic work environments. SUYUAN, who weighs 110 pounds (50 kilograms) and is 5 feet 6 inches (167 cm) tall, was designed to have human-like proportions. Its 38-DoF articulation offers dexterity, allowing for both wide-range motion and sensitive manipulation. With a single arm, the robot can lift objects up to 4.4 pounds (2 kilograms) in weight and carry a total payload of up to 22 pounds (10 kilograms). With a walking pace of 3.1 miles per hour (5 km/h), SUYUAN is ideal for environments including assembly lines, warehousing, and logistics, according to a statement. To navigate complex industrial settings, SUYUAN combines LiDAR and binocular vision for self-guided mobility. Its 275-TOPS AI processor enables rapid data analysis and integration with large language models, allowing it to understand tasks in natural language and handle objects adaptively, reports Fox 44 News. In pilot demonstrations, the robot successfully identified, picked, and relocated crates of varying sizes using advanced computer vision and coordinated joint control—delivering measurable gains in warehouse efficiency. The company claims that SUYUAN’s launch represents a major turning point in Shanghai Electric’s foray into humanoid robotics and strengthens its vertically integrated approach to industrial automation solutions. Intelligent task handling Shanghai Electric also demonstrated its most recent developments in intelligent manufacturing at WAIC 2025, introducing a new joint venture with Johnson Electric centered on next-generation humanoid robotics and showcasing the “LINGKE” dual-arm robot. With its high-precision operations, adaptive teamwork, and closed-loop data capabilities, the LINGKE robot demonstrated live talents in handling complicated production jobs. LINGKE is made to do more than just replace human labor; it uses compliant force control and bimanual coordination to relieve workers of high-intensity, repetitive jobs. According to the company, the robot enhances operational efficiency by up to five times. Its core strength lies in a Data-Model-Deployment closed-loop system that starts with operational data, followed by data cleansing, model training, live deployment, and feedback-driven optimization—enabling autonomous learning and workflow improvement. Also at the event, Shanghai Electric and Johnson Electric introduced advanced hardware modules for humanoid robots, including rotary joints, linear joints, and dexterous finger joints.

For the thousands of Meiteis who risked everything to make it to relief camps, they did it because they had no other choice. The fact is, many Meiteis will not be safe in districts like churachandpur , Chandel, Thoubal, Bishnupur and kangpokpi area near Senapati, while Chinkuki militants remains in power. There are no Meiteis left in Churachandpur and Moreh, 2 areas from where Meiteis have been completely ethnically cleansed. In the remaining areas mentioned above, innocent Meitei civilians face being kidnapped, ambushed, detained, tortured, executed. To force them to stay in relief camps or temporary houses for a long and indefinite time is a slow death sentence and to make them return before driving out the Chinkuki militants is signing their death warrants. Enough of bandaid 🩹 solutions, we need surgical intervention! ‼️ BIG QUESTION ‼️ Why are Chinkuki militants and their supporters roaming freely with advanced weapons in Churachandpur. Why is the lawlessness in Churachandpur not controlled after almost 4 months! They proudly walk around brandishing automatic weapons yet nothing has been done! The images below show the complete demolition of Meitei houses in Churachandpur thenga leirak. Houses looted, gutted and bulldozed to the ground.

🚨 SHOCKING EXPOSURE: For those who have been following Q and the Q programs, you’ve been on the right path all along. But here’s the truth of how it works: there will be no automatic transition into the Quantum Financial System (QFS). Every patriot must set up their own unique QFS account manually. If you’re not already positioned within the QFS, you will not be able to access the system once the shift takes place. This is not something you want to miss when everything goes live, only those already inside will be able to move forward. The first step is simple: acquire XRP and XLM and stake them directly on the QFS system. Secure your position now you’ll thank me later. Be aware: most major exchanges have already been compromised. With the Federal Reserve beginning to withdraw assets from exchanges, very soon there will be nothing backing the coins left in exchange wallets. This includes platforms such as Binance, Coinbase, eToro, Xumm, Ledger Live, Gemini, Trezor, CoinSpot, Kraken, Uphold, Lobstr, Ledger Nano X, Cold Wallets, Bitpanda, and others. XRP and XLM - digital assets are here to stay whether you like it or not. The XRP XLM QFS Manual is intended for the new user who knows nothing about Nesara - Gesara, XRP, XLM and digital assets.

Micron is going to $4,000 and once you understand what inference actually is, the number stops sounding crazy (Save this). Dylan Patel just said that by 2030, OpenAI and Anthropic alone will need over 100 gigawatts of compute combined and by 2040, we may not even be measuring AI infrastructure in gigawatts anymore. We may be talking about terawatts. Every single one of those gigawatts needs memory to function. Without it, the compute is worthless. Most people heard that and thought about Nvidia but they should be thinking about Micron. Every AI model generating a response has two phases. The first is prefill, processing your prompt which is compute-heavy and the second is decode generating each word one token at a time and that phase is almost entirely memory-bound, not compute-bound. During decode, the GPU's processing units sit idle more than 95% of the time, waiting for data to arrive from memory. Google confirmed it in a research paper that decode-phase bottlenecks are dominated by memory bandwidth and capacity not raw compute. The GPU is not the bottleneck but the memory feeding the GPU is. This matters because inference is now where all the money lives. Training a model happens once, Inference happens billions of times a day every ChatGPT response, every Claude output, every agentic workflow running in the background and every one of those token streams is a billing event tied directly to memory performance. Adding more GPUs does not fix this because GPUs are already underutilized in inference because they are sitting idle waiting on memory. Adding more memory bandwidth and capacity is what directly reduces token cost, reduces latency, and allows the same cluster to serve dramatically more users simultaneously. Longer context windows compound the problem further, a model running a 1 million token context window requires dramatically more memory per session than a 10,000 token window, and every new model generation pushes context longer. The market treats memory as a downstream beneficiary of Nvidia orders. The correct framework is the opposite, Micron is the upstream constraint on how much value every Nvidia GPU can actually generate at inference scale. Micron guided Q4 to $50 billion in revenue, has HBM4 ramping at twice the pace of the prior generation, and CEO Sanjay Mehrotra has said supply will not catch demand before the end of 2027. At 8x forward earnings on $112 projected FY2027 EPS, Micron is the most undervalued infrastructure company in the entire AI stack. Inference is memory. Memory is Micron and the inference ramp has barely started. Milk Road Pro members are already up massively on this position and we're just getting started.

IBM’s Selectric typewriter (introduced in 1961) fundamentally reshaped office culture by combining a radical mechanical redesign with strong industrial design, higher productivity, and a bridge toward modern word processing and computer keyboards. Core technical shift that changed daily work Traditional typewriters used a basket of individual type bars that swung up to strike the ribbon and paper. Fast typing frequently caused bars to collide and jam. The Selectric replaced that entire system with a single interchangeable spherical “golf-ball” typing element that rotated and tilted to the correct character, then struck the page. Because the element moved instead of the carriage, there was no heavy carriage return, less vibration, fewer jams, more consistent impression quality, and noticeably higher sustainable speed. Typists could work longer with less physical strain. Documents looked cleaner and more professional. The machine also allowed rapid font changes simply by swapping the type element (different typefaces, italics, scientific symbols, foreign-language characters). This flexibility was previously cumbersome or impossible on standard machines. Aesthetic and status transformation of the office Eliot Noyes’s industrial design gave the Selectric a smooth, modern, almost sculptural form that broke from the black/gray utilitarian look of earlier office machines. It came in multiple colors (companies could even order custom finishes), and its shape was meant to be viewed from all sides—suited to the emerging open-plan office rather than machines tucked against walls or built into desks. The Selectric became a visible status object. Having one on a desk signaled modernity and organizational seriousness. Its presence in popular culture (notably Mad Men) reinforced the image of the polished mid-century office. Office equipment was no longer purely functional hardware; it could carry design prestige similar to furniture or automobiles. Impact on people and workflow Typing pools (predominantly staffed by women) became more productive and less mechanically frustrating. The machine reduced the physical and mental friction of producing clean correspondence, reports, and forms. Electric power already lowered the force needed per keystroke; the Selectric’s consistency and reliability amplified that advantage. Over time this contributed to a cultural shift: typing moved from a specialized trade toward a more general office skill. Later Selectric variants (especially the Magnetic Tape Selectric Typewriter / MT/ST of 1964 and subsequent correcting models) introduced early forms of stored text, automatic playback, and error correction without full retyping. These were direct precursors to dedicated word processors and, ultimately, the computer keyboard as the primary human-computer interface. Market dominance and lasting cultural footprint IBM sold more than 13 million Selectrics. For roughly a quarter-century it was the dominant electric typewriter in American (and many international) offices—so ubiquitous that for many people “typewriter” simply meant Selectric. Its mechanical principles and keyboard layout also influenced later IBM terminal and PC keyboards. By the mid-1980s personal computers and daisy-wheel/laser printers displaced it, but the Selectric had already altered expectations: offices expected clean, fast, flexible document production; equipment could be designed rather than merely engineered; and the path from mechanical typing to electronic text manipulation had been opened. The Selectric did not invent the office or the typewriter, but it removed major friction points, elevated the visual and status environment of clerical work, boosted throughput in typing-intensive departments, and served as a practical stepping-stone toward word processing and keyboard-driven computing. That combination permanently changed how offices looked, felt, and operated.

The Selectric became a visible status object. Having one on a desk signaled modernity and organizational seriousness. Its presence in popular culture (notably Mad Men) reinforced the image of the polished mid-century office. Office equipment was no longer purely functional hardware; it could carry design prestige similar to furniture or automobiles. Impact on people and workflow Typing pools (predominantly staffed by women) became more productive and less mechanically frustrating. The machine reduced the physical and mental friction of producing clean correspondence, reports, and forms. Electric power already lowered the force needed per keystroke; the Selectric’s consistency and reliability amplified that advantage. Over time this contributed to a cultural shift: typing moved from a specialized trade toward a more general office skill. Later Selectric variants (especially the Magnetic Tape Selectric Typewriter / MT/ST of 1964 and subsequent correcting models) introduced early forms of stored text, automatic playback, and error correction without full retyping. These were direct precursors to dedicated word processors and, ultimately, the computer keyboard as the primary human-computer interface. Market dominance and lasting cultural footprint IBM sold more than 13 million Selectrics. For roughly a quarter-century it was the dominant electric typewriter in American (and many international) offices—so ubiquitous that for many people “typewriter” simply meant Selectric. Its mechanical principles and keyboard layout also influenced later IBM terminal and PC keyboards. By the mid-1980s personal computers and daisy-wheel/laser printers displaced it, but the Selectric had already altered expectations: offices expected clean, fast, flexible document production; equipment could be designed rather than merely engineered; and the path from mechanical typing to electronic text manipulation had been opened. The Selectric did not invent the office or the typewriter, but it removed major friction points, elevated the visual and status environment of clerical work, boosted throughput in typing-intensive departments, and served as a practical stepping-stone toward word processing and keyboard-driven computing. That combination permanently changed how offices looked, felt, and operated.

What are Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) are neural nets trained to satisfy a differential equation. The trick is simple. You bake the PDE residual straight into the loss. They came out of a very practical pain point. Classical PDE pipelines can be amazing, but they often demand a lot of setup work. Meshes. Stencils. Stability tuning. And once you build a solver, it’s usually tied to one geometry and one discretization choice. A PINN flips the workflow. You represent the solution itself as a smooth function uᵩ(x,t) and you enforce the physics wherever you choose to sample the domain. Most people first meet PINNs in the least helpful way. A pretty solution surface, almost no clarity on what was enforced to make it appear. In this series we keep the enforcement visible. We pick a PDE, represent the unknown solution as a flexible function, measure how badly that function violates the equation across the domain, and train it to reduce that mismatch at the points we sample. A normal neural net learns from labels. You give it inputs and target outputs. A PINN learns from an equation. You give it inputs (x,t), and it gets penalized whenever its output fails the PDE. Smaller mismatch means smaller loss. Bigger mismatch means bigger loss. That’s all “punish” and “reward” mean here. The network isn’t replacing physics. It’s just a flexible function that we force to obey the same calculus you’d demand from any candidate solution. The math breakdown: We start with a PDE on a domain Ω. Write it as uₜ(x,t) + N(u(x,t), uₓ(x,t), uₓₓ(x,t), …) = 0 for (x,t) in Ω A PINN replaces the unknown u with a neural network output uᵩ(x,t) Now define the physics residual by plugging uᵩ into the PDE rᵩ(x,t) = ∂uᵩ/∂t + N(uᵩ, ∂uᵩ/∂x, ∂²uᵩ/∂x², …) If uᵩ were an exact solution, we’d have rᵩ(x,t) = 0 everywhere. We may also have data points (xᵢ,tᵢ,uᵢ) from measurements or from an initial condition. The training objective is a weighted sum of squared errors L(ᵩ) = L_data(ᵩ) + λ L_phys(ᵩ) + L_bc/ic(ᵩ) with L_data(ᵩ) = meanᵢ |uᵩ(xᵢ,tᵢ) − uᵢ|² L_phys(ᵩ) = meanⱼ |rᵩ(xⱼ,tⱼ)|² where (xⱼ,tⱼ) are collocation points in Ω L_bc/ic(ᵩ) = penalties enforcing boundary conditions and initial conditions The key technical step is how we get the derivatives inside rᵩ. We don’t approximate them with finite differences. We compute them with automatic differentiation: ∂uᵩ/∂t, ∂uᵩ/∂x, ∂²uᵩ/∂x², … Then we differentiate the total loss L(ᵩ) with respect to ᵩ and train with gradient descent. That’s the whole idea. Learn a function, but make the PDE part of the loss, so the network is trained to be a solution, not just a curve-fitter. In the render, the main 3D surface is the network’s current guess uᵩ(x,t), drawn as a living sheet over the (x,t) plane. Hovering above is the neural scaffold, a visible graph of feature nodes and connections. The bright tension threads are the physics residual rᵩ(x,t). Each thread tethers a collocation bead on the sheet up to the scaffold, and it thickens and brightens exactly where |rᵩ| is large, with color showing the sign. As training runs, those threads go slack across the domain, not because we hid the error, but because the network has actually been pushed toward rᵩ(x,t) ≈ 0. #PINNs #ScientificMachineLearning #PDE #DifferentialEquations #Optimization #MachineLearning #AppliedMath #ComputationalPhysics

“He (Oscar) missed out in the end, but only his 3rd season in Formula 1 and and his rate of development in between each season as well has been so notable. How have you looked on Oscar Piastri's first three years with McLaren, this fight, and do you expect him to bounce back quite strong next year?” Andrea Stella: “Oscar will be definitely stronger next year. Oscar will win championships at McLaren in the future. He has all it takes. I've always said that the rate of development tells me why he won championship at the first year in the junior categories. His capacity to adapt, his capacity to analyze what is needed, got it, I'll go out and do it and he does it. He’s no short than exceptional. And I think this year Oscar for two third of the season has been the most consistent. We then went to tracks that challenged Oscar from a technical point of view. The low grip circuits required a driving style that came so natural for Lando and so much to think for Oscar like ‘ah, that's what the car needs, it doesn't come natural to me. I have to think how I do it in an automatic way.’ And with the level of drivers we have at the moment, as soon as you have to think too much in the way you drive, you lose several positions. But I think really the only event in which Oscar had some hesitations this year is just Baku. I think all the rest in my view, it has some technical explanations. It has to do with the level overall of drivers that we have there for the impact of not being perfect, not being to the last 1%. And also Oscar showed maturity once again in the way he withstood the difficulties we had as a team. Which once again are quite impressive for somebody who is at the third season in Formula 1 and gives me the chance to thank Oscar and Lando for how they stayed supportive of the team. And like I say, if we made it, I think we made it not in the events in which we gained the points but in the way we dealt with the events in which we lost the points. And ultimately we did it. We were discussing this morning with the team by less than alpha percent, two points over more than 400. This shows that how marginal this game, how competitive this game is, which is obviously also a message to - at least for us, we said it's a message for us to do better because we would like to be slightly more comfortable in the future.”

$Great question! 🤔 How do you simulate *multiple* layers of glass/refraction in video games? In the last breakdown, I discussed how to create a glass shader in Unity URP. In essence, we were taking the render of the scene from the camera without any transparent objects. This is available in URP as the global _CameraOpaqueTexture. This is good enough for most use-cases, and more or less the classic way of doing it. 🔍 What is _CameraOpaqueTexture? As the name implies, there are no transparent objects rendered into this texture, so it's not possible by default to have something like a transparent-type ocean material/shader rendered through a refractive glass shader (which samples and distorts this texture to render on its surface, as if it's transparent). ⚠️ Why it’s tricky: It's much easier to sort without much further setup if you don't have refraction, and only a transparent material, because in that case you're not simulating the transparency yourself via sampling the rendered scene texture. But for refraction, it's required-- unless you want to go down the ray/path tracing route. You could simulate accurate, real dispersion... and that's about as expensive as it sounds, and it requires a rework of your entire rendering. --> 🚫 It's not a viable suggestion to offer. 📚 There are well-known terms regarding transparency sorting you can search up, but as you've specifically asked for refractive boxes, I'll discuss briefly about that. 🧱 Simulating layers of refraction: For this kind of rendering, you need some way to render the backfaces before rendering the front. And the backfaces that are rendered may contain whatever data you'd like for additional processing in the layer front-facing mesh render. 🧪 Examples: You could render the back face as a glass shader of its own, as an intermediate step after _CameraOpaqueTexture. Then you sample this texture instead and you end up with multi-layered refraction, "just like that". You can also render the back normals only, via a fully opaque shader, and use that to manually account for that during the front render. You could even bake in data needed for thickness in realtime. 🛠️ Without making it complicated for yourself, the most straightforward method is via render textures, and you can easily set some fractional resolution. Cameras in Unity have an open slot for target textures to render to. You can use custom render textures to process _SelfTexture2D. ⏱️ It's great to do low-resolution processing for more complex tasks, like blurring and caustics. You can get massive performance boosts, considering the square law and number of pixels/fragments that need calculations (quadratic scaling). 🚧 I've not fully exploited the possibilities myself, but research/development with PRISM is ongoing!$

🚨 I think I just found one of the smartest AI Agents for real-world investing. No prompt engineering. No complicated workflows. Just pick an expert and start chatting. I tested it on one of the hottest AI semiconductor stocks right now: Micron ($MU). Here’s all I did: → Opened EasyClaw → Added the Stock Master Agent → Installed the Serenity skill → Typed ONE sentence: “Use Serenity’s framework to research $MU and give me an investment recommendation.” A few minutes later, I had a research report that looked like something from a professional analyst. It automatically covered: ✅ Market outlook ✅ Supply chain trends ✅ Fundamental analysis ✅ Technical analysis ✅ Valuation ✅ Risk assessment ✅ Clear investment recommendation The result? Surprisingly… it said DON’T chase $MU at current prices. Why? • AI-driven HBM demand is still exploding 📈 • Micron’s fundamentals remain incredibly strong 📈 • Memory market sentiment is bullish 📈 But… The stock has run much faster than the business has improved. Its recommendations were refreshingly practical: 📌 Already holding? → Consider scaling out gradually and protect gains with trailing stops. 📌 Waiting to buy? → Stay patient. Let the market come to you. 📌 Risk-averse investor? → Skip the volatility until a better setup appears. What impressed me most wasn’t the conclusion… It was how the AI reached it. It highlighted the 3 metrics that actually matter going forward: 1️⃣ DRAM & HBM pricing trends 2️⃣ HBM4 production ramp for next-gen AI chips 3️⃣ CapEx plans from major memory manufacturers That’s the kind of analysis that separates signal from noise. The entire workflow felt like watching a veteran analyst think in real time: Hot trend → Data → Industry insights → Risk analysis → Decision. No prompts. No setup. No building AI agents from scratch. Just choose an expert. Ask your question. Get a structured investment report in minutes. If you’re into AI, semiconductors, or US stocks, this is absolutely worth trying.
