With the Autodesk Fusion connector, designers and engineers can create and modify 3D models through conversation.

[Autodesk Flow Studio @adskflowstudio]

Introducing AI Rigging and Neural Layer in Flow Studio.

From idea to performance to final shot – now it’s easier to create animation-ready 3D characters and cinematic shots.

Rig your 3D characters in a few clicks with AI Rigging. Then refine your shots with better lighting, materials, and detail using Neural Layer. All without extra steps or setup. And you stay in control. Export to your DCC tool for animation and final polish or stay in Flow Studio to finish your shots faster with Neural Layer.

Time to create some serious buzz. 🐝

[Autodesk Fusion @adskFusion]

We have partnered with @AnthropicAI to launch the Claude connector for Fusion.

With the Fusion MCP, you can now tap into Claude’s desktop capabilities—speech, vision, web search, and cross-service workflows—right inside your design flow.

Combined with #AutodeskAssistant, this opens up more flexible, customizable agentic workflows for how you build with Fusion + Claude.

We are now witnessing the dismantling of independent scientific oversight.

The President has terminated, without reason, multiple members of the National Science Board, the independent body that guides NSF and advises Congress and the President on U.S. science policy.

[Jettelly Inc. @jettelly]

Matin FalahManesh made "Profile Mover," a Maya C++ plugin that uses splines to drive character deformation instead of traditional weight painting. 🧩

So, @joerogan probably won’t see this post that’s going viral on Facebook. It’s too long to copy & paste, & it took way more than 4 screenshots

But I think it’s essential reading for everyone, because ALL of the lying MAGA Influencers need to face legal consequences /1

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (Ps 115:4–8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee. Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace
