Kimi K3 has received far more love than we expected, and our GPUs are feeling it. Over the past 48 hours, demand has pushed close to the limits of our current capacity. To protect the experience of existing subscribers, we're temporarily pausing new subscriptions and

So disappointing. I admired what this director has done previously, and this 40 second “trailer” is almost unwatchable. Not a single character is there; there is no there there.

NIGHTBORNE is the first full test AI film I have made. It was made using Seedance 2.0. I've been experimenting with AI for a couple of years, and it's now at the point where I want to tackle a full feature in this format. This is a 13-minute test start. It was made with real concept artists, and features the faces and voices of 32 real people. Barley Studios will be my new AI studio for creating my own films, the way Oats Studios was for traditional film and VFX. @Barleystudiosai Full film…

That feeling when you’ve got twice the number of followers on the fediverse as the closed-source VC-funded European social network being peddled by the EU Commission has accounts.

[1 media attachment] Good morning Fedi friends. Is anybody curious about how the #WSocial experiment is going? You know, the private, for profit "European answer to X" endorsed by the European Commission, which is a fork of Bluesky and has quietly gone closed-source before its beta launch (à la #TruthSocial)? I've got numbers for you! Nearly two months in, W Social has almost the same number of accounts as #Eurosky... You know, the European fork of Bluesky that does NOT require government …

Juvenile white sharks are already appearing along the California coastline,
fleeing warmer than usual waters in Mexico during what’s expected to be an incredibly strong El Niño.
But while shark experts say it could be the sharkiest summer in California in a decade,
they also say beachgoers shouldn’t be too alarmed as the apex predators have spent generations learning what’s on the menu.
And humans aren’t their preferred food

California braces for its sharkiest summer in a decade – but experts say don’t panic
Young great white sharks are returning in large numbers, but researchers say humans are not on the menu

Forgive these sleep-deprived rantings - they come from a happy, people-appreciating place! :D
It has become freshly amazing to me, the many ways of framing or encountering music. As a child it almost always provoked narrative experience; travel escapades - personalities arriving, things happening, a world generating itself. This disappeared fairly quickly from around ten onwards, and went to abstraction: sound as sound, music as music. In feeling out metaphors to try and give it langua…

Water systems are ripe for cyberattacks,
experts warn after suspected Iranian hacks
In late 2022, Microsoft detected the hack of a water system in Guam
that U.S. intelligence agencies in the following months determined was orchestrated by China.
The idea wasn’t new.
The spy agencies had long watched as Iran targeted Israeli water systems.

“That another nation state was doing it to us
— that was unsettling,” recalled one former U.S. official,

Water systems are ripe for cyberattacks, experts warn after suspected Iranian hacks
As lawmakers call for protections after incidents in 12 states, an EPA rule that Republicans fought would “remove most of the low-hanging fruit,” a cybersecurity expert said.
