Building @vidmuse_ai; Startup-maxi; Opinions are my own

[killua @davidz9999]

A lot of people have asked me recently whether I have left @Gradient_HQ, and some have also been curious about why. I’ve even seen a few unnecessary speculations.

Yes, I have left Gradient, and joined @vidmuse_ai .

There is no dramatic story behind this decision. I left simply because I want to keep challenging myself as much as possible before the AI revolution becomes more settled and consolidated — whether that happens around 2029, 2030, or later.

Video agent is, in my view, still one of the areas with the most uncertainty and possibility. I also believe that video may become one of the most important forms through which world models are built and experienced over the next five years.

Recently, many people have been discussing what world models really are. I have just chosen my answer.

For me, Gradient was a very important chapter in my years of working in startups. I loved it deeply. I contributed almost every resource I could. I introduced my own friends to the project. I paid out of my own pocket for some activities. I poured a huge amount of energy into it. Even during my trip to Japan, where I proposed to my girlfriend, I was still thinking about my responsibilities there.

I am especially proud of the community team we built.

At one point, we had an 8% Discord online rate — a number that could beat 99% of crypto projects, and even many Web2 AI communities. Our community activities were creative, interesting, and full of energy.

Even today, there are still loyal community members patiently explaining and educating others about our distributed inference engine, Parallax; our decentralized reinforcement learning framework, Echo; and our aggregated model API platform, CommonStack.

Every core community member was amazing. We solved many difficult problems together, and I learned so much from them.

I sincerely hope the sky above Gradient remains clear, bright, and pure.

Life is only about 30,000 days long.

So we have to keep moving closer to what we truly want in our hearts and souls. I hope all of you can do the same.

My own journey has always been full of choices — and of being chosen. Games, crypto, AI — each of these fields has shown me beautiful landscapes.

But deep down, I know what I truly want: to build something meaningful, to influence people in a positive way, and to create real value.

At the end, let me share with you what Brad Pitt said.

I don’t know if any of what we do matters in the end.
What I do know that matters is the people we hitch ourselves to, and the indelible mark they leave upon our very being.

Seedream 5.0 Pro genuinely surprised us.

It nails typography, follows prompts well, and produces remarkably clean compositions across a wide range of styles.

I was chatting with a colleague about his career just now and ended up giving him some advice. It suddenly dawned on me that I've reached the stage in life where people come to me for career advice.

It just hit me that I'm already over one-third of the way through this journey called life. Time really does fly.
