@nurastudios is all about great storytelling. Not about AI. AI is just a tool. Creators are the key.

Great pitches shouldn't die waiting on budget or crew. Showcraft closes the gap on time and quality so you can make the film you dreamed of.

Stop waiting on resources. Do it now.

Don't be a meat proxy. Be a meat filter.

Okay, models can do it even better. If not now, then soon.

What's the next step?

We’re premiering #Showcraft at #Annecy so we're sharing more about why we built our storytelling platform. You can start with an idea, an image, a character and Showcraft helps fill the gaps in your process. Enabling anyone with a story is our passion.

If you’re at #Annecy, come see us at booth A.54.

It started as an idea in @byarlooo's head.

Today, Pequena Máquina premieres.

Japan meets Brazil. Favela culture meets yakuza codes.
Two teenagers searching for where they belong.

We're proud Nura helped bring it to life.

Episodes 1 & 2 are out now. ↓

I think I’ve found a way out of the philosophical hellhole I’ve found myself in.

The argument I was entertaining in this video is that maybe intelligence is a function humans run, which is a sort of approximation on reality. And maybe AI can also find a similar, or even better, approximation.

Autopoiesis could provide an interesting counterview.

In a sense, humans are not hosts that run the intelligence algorithm. They *are* the intelligence algorithm.

And the solution was found through the most hardcore search process in the known universe. Life runs natively on chemistry and physics and has spent 4 billion years building up to us, starting with simple autopoietic systems and compounding endlessly.

The alternative we’ve built today, AI, is a third-person model of that intelligence. It’s “what do these intelligences tend to say?” and hoping you can reverse engineer their world from their speech. It’s not the real thing, and it has no short-term way of becoming even close to the real thing.

The part I was missing was basically: the reason it can’t be the real thing is not because humans do something extradimensional or immaterial that is definitionally out of reach for AIs. It’s that if you want to build human intelligence, you’ll need to repeat the work done through billions of years and build the same loops from the bottom up.

I’m not necessarily a carbon maximalist. But I suspect the process that found intelligence was pretty thorough. We’re trying now to do something similar in the silicon virtualized realm. And I have no doubt that building on this substrate over the next billion years will yield something interesting. I’m just not so sure why we think it will result in the same thing.

Disclaimer: I’m not a philosopher or physicist. Just trying to find useful mental models to wade through reality.

What does it really feel like to raise an autistic child with sensory sensitivities? Filmmaker @misslaidlaw made a short film about it, and it's unlike anything we've seen. Watch the story behind Quiet Please 🎬

[Nura Studios @nurastudios]

Quiet Please is an intimate animated short inspired by @misslaidlaw personal experience raising an autistic child with sensory sensitivities.

A story about noise, empathy, and the relief of being understood.

Created with Showcraft. Watch the full story in the replies below.

Machines have no talent. Humans do.
We’re building Nura for storytellers, not to replace them, but to extend what they’ve already created.
Turn existing worlds into episodic stories.

Big news! Today INP (Interaction to Next Paint) officially became a Core Web Vital, replacing FID (First Input Delay). It's a much better input responsiveness metric.

@elonmusk Maybe one is 100 times more important than the other ?
