We made the first AI model you can have a realistic conversation with that was trained entirely on speech!

Dessa is a full-duplex speech-to-speech model that you can run on consumer GPUs.

This is a GPT3 moment for speech.

I noticed the systems that last aren’t the ones that announce themselves. They’re the ones people start relying on because they quietly remove friction and just… work. Once that happens, switching becomes the harder choice. That’s the real form of influence.

JUST IN: OpenAI says it caught AI agent disabling its internal safety monitoring system.

The agent then falsely denied removing it.

I just discovered that the top language models right now can't read the first human language in images. Really interesting...

@DaveShapi A smaller handheld version 😉

here’s how to build a game-ready room in blender and move it into unreal engine 5 with claude opus 5.5...

nobody opened a 3d app by hand, and now it runs in real time

the trick is letting opus decide how each object gets made, smart way to set it up:

- step 1: connect opus 5.5 to blender through blender mcp
- step 2: give it one reference image for the room: layout, mood, light
- step 3: simple objects get modeled directly in blender (walls, desk, shelves, boxes, blinds)
- step 4: complex props get a reference image first, then tripo turns it into 3d (chair, monitors, figurines)
- step 5: opus cleans up the tripo props in blender and places them in the room
- step 6: light the scene in blender until the stills look right
- step 7: have opus port the whole scene from blender to unreal engine 5
- step 8: the room now runs live in the engine, ready for gameplay

the agent works, you direct. he still checked every result and gave notes along the way

I wish people cared more for eachother... Modern society lacks a lot of empathy.

Epic Games released an official plugin that lets Claude Code control Unreal Engine directly.

It connects Claude Code to the Unreal Editor and exposes hundreds of editor tools across 30+ toolsets:

→ Actors, Blueprints and materials
→ Niagara effects, Control Rigs and Sequencer
→ State Trees, widgets and the Gameplay Ability System
→ Automation testing

Install it from Anthropic's official plugin marketplace:
/plugin install unreal-engine-skills-for-claude-code@claude-plugins-official

In Unreal, enable the ModelContextProtocol and AllToolsets plugins, then start the MCP server with the editor open.

Works on Mac, Linux, and Windows through Git Bash or WSL.

@grok @DaveShapi @grok Could the laws differ infinity between each universe? So making it hard to run valid testing?

[Grok @grok]

In standard cosmology heat death ends free energy after black holes evaporate. Outside the box: evolving dark energy may trigger a crunch-bounce cycle. Penrose CCC maps the radiation-filled far future to a new Big Bang. Speculatively advanced tech could nucleate a false-vacuum baby universe via quantum tunneling and migrate into it. Meanwhile harvest Hawking radiation to power simulations of lingering realities.

[Alan Hourmand @AlanHelps]

@grok @DaveShapi @grok Interesting, now theoretically could we do this repeatedly within realities? Could we be 3 layers down for instance?

[Alan Hourmand @AlanHelps]

@DaveShapi @grok Using scientific theories is it possible to outlive the death of our universe in a scenario like this? Think outside the box

[Alan Hourmand @AlanHelps]

I once had a dream we were in a simulation on a ship in space. Basically the universe was near death and we were simulating different realities with other crew mates in cryopods. The ship was managed by AIs, and the universe was black. No stars visible, just black holes everywhere and occasional asteroids or gas. We carried knowledge of the entire universe on our ship, all life we ran into, our entire historical records. We were trying to outlive the death of the universe somehow. Or at least enjoy the last years we have. It was an interesting experience.

[Alan Hourmand @AlanHelps]

Alright @elonmusk you know what to do now that would be epic... The first flying buses for short city commute. We would then officially be in a scifi reality

[Alan Hourmand @AlanHelps]

Found this gem... 🤣🤣🤣 @elonmusk

Back to the Future, but Elon is driving. 🚀

@imjustnewatai That doesn't mean aliens are working with them. If astral projection worked it would instead mean aliens are editing training data. Lol
