I love how @midjourney lets you build almost anything you can picture. Music by @suno, little fixes with @NanoBanana, and @Magnific_AI for the upscale magic in some sequences.
Amazing! And the fact Adobe wasn't the first to ship this is just unbelievable. They should be leading the creative revolution and yet they are slow and waiting to be disrupted.
Testing Reve 2.0.
One thing I really like is how granular you can get with the edits - literally all elements inside the image are editable, thanks to the way that Reve's tech builds the image.
I was able to seamlessly change the subject's hair, lipstick colour, and skin tone.

I think hyperinsulinaemia is very damaging. Not only because insulin is not just a blood sugar hormone but also because it's one of the body’s main anabolic storage signals.
Excessive carbohydrate intake disrupts the balance between anabolic and catabolic forces. The body compensates lowering other anabolic hormones (deregulating growth, sexual hormones, tissue regeneration).
In T2D, the problem is often a chronically saturated cellular environment with too much glucose, too much fuel, too much liver and pancreatic fat, too much inflammatory signalling.
The cell becomes “deaf” to insulin partly as a homeostatic brake as it is already overloaded. T2diabetes is a desperate call for lower carbohydrate intake not for more insulin (generally) or for medication.
So if the pancreas is still producing insulin, adding more insulin may lower blood sugar, and that can be necessary for a while. But without radically changing diet and reducing the overload, the logic is broken and the majority of professionals go exactly against the homeostatic response of the body.
We're forcing glucose into a system that is already resisting the signal for a very logical reason.
That is to me a clear indication that our current medical paradigm completely broke and highly interventionist (when it comes to chronic diseases) and doesn't understand or respect our bodies wisdom and homeostatic mechanisms.
The real goal should be metabolic recovery: lower insulin demand, lower inflammation, restored insulin sensitivity and normal blood glucose levels naturally.
Instead we see everywhere diabetic people being recommended grains, fruit juices, cereal bars by healthcare professionals.
@loofymectin@garrytan I'm not against using technology, if safe, to recover a damaged body but I honestly don't think that most scientists are aligned with the basic principles of health to properly investigate the long-term effects and safety of biotech.
Yes but that's the consequence of a highly inflamed body. Which is caused by bad nutrition. Which is caused by terrible nutritional advice from experts, which is caused by a broken medical and nutritional system, which is caused by a wrong health paradigm, which was corrupted in the beginning of the last century and from that point on created inconceivable amount of suffering world wide.
All of that subsidised by the corrupted food and pharmaceutical industries, and propagated by a rotten media, political and advertising ecosystem. ☠️
So you're not wrong that oxidised cholesterol is a problem. But the cause is high insulin (highly refined carbohydrates as the base of our diet), oxidised PUFAs, extreme toxic load, fatty liver disease etc.
And the fix for that isn't high tech but simply following the pillars of good health, physiology, and making them the core of modern medicine.
Social media, post-feed era:
1) you build your information library: visuals, insights, project cases, raw material, everything that resonates with you.
2) you build your creativity layer: the skills and styles for how you want to express it.
The platform assembles it in real time, on demand, for whoever resonates with that identity (source + expression).
The algorithm stops gatekeeping and becomes pure infrastructure: an assembly and distribution layer.
A real-time orchestrator and curator of the output.
You bring the identity.
The platform handles the rest.
Nothing will shape your worldview as much as simply reading how humans from the past thought.
You realize very quickly that our time is a radical anomaly in human history.
This was my favorite moment from Elon, Franz, and Lars yesterday.
Elon: "I’ll tell you something, maybe at a fundamental level why the Model S/X succeeded, which is that, those cars were designed with love."
Lars: "Absolutely."
Elon: "That would be my advice for people out there who are making products or providing services, is do something that you truly love. Your customers will feel that love."
Anyone who owns a Tesla knows exactly what he means.
Introducing Ponder: the agentic video editor.
It’s a new paradigm for filmmaking, where powerful creative agents and humans collaborate to tell world-class stories.
