Watch Claude control my phone and successfully look up stats in my Sports app.

I even got it to play a game in the Chess app against another AI - pretty crazy.

Introducing 1stAI Machine, the first physical device for video editing generated by AI.

"we anticipate that the quality of videos will soon match that of photos. At that point, anyone will be able to create movies without the need for a camera, lights, or actors; they will simply interact with the AIs. A tool like 1stAI Machine anticipates that moment by exploring tangible interfaces that enhance creativity."
