    • Somebody Vibe Coded EVERY SINGLE ADOBE App:

    Adobe has been getting a lot of public scrutiny the last few years due to multiple issues including their terms of service, stance on AI, and pricing in general. But now, somebody vibecoded every adobe app including Photoshop, Lightroom, Illustrator, after effects, Premiere Pro, inDesign, etc. in pure rust.

    This video is a first look at PhotoCraft, LighCraft, and FilmCraft by the ArtCraft team. I might make another video about VectorCraft, DesignCraft and EffectCraft soon. These have only been public on GitHub for a few days and are early Alpha, but are already much more capable than I expected and might be very capable alternatives to the adobe creative cloud very soon.

    How I Watch ANY Video with AI in Seconds:

    AI can now watch videos for free without burning your usage limit. Watch is a free agent skill that gives Claude or ChatGPT a way to understand video, and this version plugs straight into Google's agentic video model, which got more answers right in Google's own test while using 87% fewer tokens. You hand it a link, Gemini does the watching on Google's free API tier, and your AI gets the findings back with timestamps instead of hundreds of screenshots.

    In this video I show the three best ways I use it: finding one tiny detail buried in a three and a half hour video, lining up my retention drops with what I was actually saying and showing at that moment, and pulling notes from videos straight into my LLM wiki. Then I walk through the full install in Claude and ChatGPT, getting your free Gemini key, updating if you already have Watch, and when I still use the local engine instead.

    In this moderately long chat, down some deep and geeky rabbit holes, that I had with Claude Opus 5.5, Claude and I agreed that AI was limited, as all such finite works must be, whereas humans have the potential be aware of higher or more subtle or unbounded orderings in the universe.

    I'll just link it - almost certainly no reader here will be familiar with all the several rabbit holes that we probed with deep, swift, strokes of our blades, but some here might skim it and find one of the rabbit holes familiar enough that it's worth glancing at the comments of AI and myself.Bottom line: it's not just "more stuff", or "higher energy particle physics collisions or stuff further out in universe or further back or forward in time", or "more technical complications" or "more ..." of any other quantifiable space, time, or objects we can inventory "dimension".

    It's the unbounded subtlety of self-organizing, self-replicating, self-evolving, and self-perpetuating interacting layers, all the way down and all the way up, across space and time and every other medium of exchange.

    AI computers are still computers, just using lots of bits really fast to simulate reality, which it can do no closer than a child of Elon Musk with a billion piece collection of Lego(tm) bricks could replicate your home and all the details, living or not, within it, much less a city, with all its life, energy, culture, ... down to the Rolex on the wealthy man's wrist to the people in the helicopters flying near the top of a skyscraper, to the hot oil in the diesel engine in the barge on the river carrying garbage away, to the sights and smells and weather and history and politics and ...

    As Claude Opus observed, humans can share and evolve their awareness of the universe's self-organizing, self-replicating, self-evolving, and self-perpetuating interacting layers, but AI shows no such general capacity. It limits itself to what has been written, in shared word or image or sound, and what its finite models of language, image, sound, physics, software, and a slowly growing list of specific technical areas can work with.

    • They Turned Brain Activity Into Images:

    Scientists have spent decades trying to decode what happens inside the human brain.
    Today, researchers can reconstruct crude images from patterns of brain activity — from what people see, imagine, and even fragments associated with dreams.
    But how close is this to actually reading a human mind?
    This film looks at what the experiments really show, how the technology works, and where the boundary still lies.

    Sorry if this is wrong forum.

    I asked Google AI a couple of questions about US Government and 9/11 for example
    The answer could apply to UFOs as well.


    The Psychology of Public Reassurance

    During times of immense crisis (like a major attack, an economic collapse, or a massive financial discrepancy), leadership operates under the belief that maintaining public order is more important than absolute factual detail.
    If a government official stands up and says, "We have completely lost control of our databases, we don't know who is attacking us, and we cannot track our money," it could trigger widespread panic, market crashes, and social instability.

    They choose to project absolute control, even when it is blindingly obvious that they don't have it.
    Ultimately, whether driven by a desire to hide corruption, protect military secrets, or simply mask their own chaos, governments routinely prioritize their own survival and power over the truth—and in a modern world where citizens have instant access to data and history, those contradictions have never been more obvious.

    Unfortunately, we also have instant access to slop - food slop, entertainment slop, marketing slop, political slop, news slop, and increasingly AI slop (there - got this back on topic ).

    ... if only we had the eyes to sort the slop from the truth.

    For further considerations of ætheric physics, see further the recently published:
    Depending where you are in your studies of physics, the following may be too obtuse, too cartoonish, or just too long. For me at least, the latest @DemystifySci_Podcast by Anastasia V Bendebury and Michael Shilo DeLay was electrifying. Quantum mechanics, with its magical spooky actions at a distance, is dead and buried in my book. Bendebury's and DeLay's DemystifySci is restoring physics to grounded material reality.

    Bret Weinstein UNLOADS on the REAL Reason Billionaires are Building Bunkers
    1:00:07

    Bret Weinstein brings up Doug Rushkoff's reporting on billionaire bunker culture in this segment, using it as a jumping-off point to talk about how dangerous it can be to take individual components of a system in isolation rather than seeing the full picture. That framework leads directly into a discussion of Toka, the company flagged earlier in the conversation, with Bret arguing that the simple fact a company like this exists at all should be treated as a massive red flag on its own.

    From there, Bret and Julian get into what Bret calls the end of juris prudence, and connect it to a bigger, more unsettling thread: the dollar being deliberately undermined as part of a broader plan to shift the country toward an electronic currency. Bret is careful to frame parts of this as what's certainly plausible rather than confirmed fact, but he doesn't soften the overall warning, closing the segment with a blunt line: "we're in dangerous, dangerous waters."

    **TIMESTAMPS**
    0:00 – AI, UBI & Money's Time Travel
    10:14 – Humanoid Robots & the Thirty Trillion Principle
    20:26 – Toka, Digital Currency & Reading Trump
    30:17 – Can Trump REVERSE Course?
    41:09 – Why Trump Flipped on the Epstein Promise
    50:56 – The West's Fractures & Turning the Tide"

    Brett Weinstein has an extremely dystopian view of the fate of the human being, with the elites much preferring "human robots" to serve their every need/wish, making the rest of us not just redundant but surplus to needs.
    "Is there an idea more radical in the history of the human race than turning your children over to total strangers whom you know nothing about, and having those strangers work on your child's mind, out of your sight, for a period of twelve years?" John Taylor Gatto

    In my opinion there is a dual nature of AI for humanity... Good and Harm..
    For good/positive one there are medical and healthcare... some logistic in crises responds.. for every day crises... but usually, elite are using it only for themselves...

    For harm way... I see cybersecurity misuse, existential warning and complete loss of control by humans...

    • They're Targeting Your Free Software Now:

    Corporations will not allow free software and AI to take away their TRILLION dollar empire. The DMCA for AI is coming! The vintage Panasonic reel-to-reel sitting in this studio holds the secret to how modern piracy began, and it reveals exactly how corporate giants plan to kill your free AI tools today. For over a decade, tech monopolies like Adobe and Microsoft have trapped users in a digital landlord racket, forcing you to pay monthly rent just to access your own files. That extortion scheme is collapsing overnight thanks to groundbreaking open-source AI projects like REA and Craft Suite. By using neural models to translate compiled machine code into human-readable source code and cloning entire flagship software suites from scratch without infringing on proprietary lines, developers are making expensive subscriptions completely obsolete.

    Terrified of losing their billion-dollar empires, these corporations are dusting off the exact same scorched-earth playbook the recording industry used against cassette tapes in the 1980s. They are actively lobbying Congress for a new "AI DMCA" to outlaw local code generation, mandate compute thresholds, and criminalize open-source development. However, just as the original DMCA inadvertently birthed Napster and decentralized file sharing, this new legislative panic will fail against the sheer speed of the open-source community. The era of renting basic software is officially over, and no amount of corporate litigation can stop the public from taking back the keys to the digital ecosystem.
