Today we are releasing Gen-4 References to all paid plans. Now anyone can generate consistent characters, locations and more. With References, you can use photos, generated images, 3D models or selfies to place yourself or others into any scene you can imagine.
More examples below.

Most mRNA design sucks.
Disappointed by expression levels? Frustrated by immunogenicity? It’s not bad luck—it’s sequence design.
Those “codon optimized” sequences from established vendors? They’re built for manufacturing convenience, not your therapeutic success.
Today we're introducing Gen-4, our new series of state-of-the-art AI models for media generation and world consistency. Gen-4 is a significant step forward for fidelity, dynamic motion and controllability in generative media.
Gen-4 Image-to-Video is rolling out today to all paid plans and Enterprise customers.

2024 has been an incredible year for Antares! Since Jan of 2024, we've 5x'd our headcount, contract value, and total capital raised.
Come join us in 2025 as we >20x our manufacturing footprint and hit major hardware milestones!
There's a shocking fact about AI that nobody tells you: You can catch up to the public AI research frontier in just 2 weeks. Yes, really.
I've built a $150M annual revenue startup over the last 8 years and If I were to start a company today, I’d drop everything and go all-in on AI.
But like many busy software builders, I felt lost—overwhelmed by the noisy, crowded and fast-moving modern AI landscape. And I wasn’t alone.
So I spent my entire holiday diving deep into AI research—reading 30+ papers, watching hours of lectures, analyzing trends, and catching up to the research frontier.
✨ Here’s what I learned:
- You don’t need months (or years) to catch up.
- You don’t need a PhD or decades of ML experience.
- You need fewer than 20 papers and 2 weeks to understand the major breakthroughs shaping AI today.
It's because the technology is extremely nascent and most techniques that came before are no longer relevant:
- ChatGPT is barely 2 years old and Transformers are only 7 years old.
- Most game-changing discoveries happened within the last 4 years, driven by a few breakthrough ideas, scaling laws, and efficient matrix multiplication.
The biggest secret?
Many groundbreaking AI papers with thousands of citations are surprisingly simple and applied, like adding "let's think step by step" to the prompt, or simply asking the LLM over and over again to improve its answer (Self-Refine).
I realized there are tons of founders and builders in the same boat—wanting to dive deeper into AI but unsure where to start.
I've created an essential AI Guide that helped me catch up, in just 2 weeks, to the frontier of public AI research to figure out where the next opportunities and gaps were:
- Curated list of only the most important papers
- Simple explanations of key concepts
- Clear pathway to understanding the frontier of modern AI
It’s perfect for:
- Founders expanding into AI
- Builders wanting to innovate at the frontier of AI
- Investors looking to separate the signal from the noise

(ps, I’m also teaming up with @VishalVasishth, co-founder of @obviousvc with @ev (focused on large-scale societal impact companies like Twitter, Medium, Beyond Meat), to host a small meetup to discuss what's working and needs to be solved in the AI stack in SF. Message me if you're interested)
Act-One now allows you to transpose your performances directly onto characters inside of existing videos. This update brings a new level of expressiveness and control, unlocking new use cases for professional video pipelines across both live action and animation.

We are thrilled to announce our $30M Series A fundraise, led by AltCap @jaltma and @caffenaitedcap!
Antares is building microreactors to power defense, space and industrial critical infrastructure and we’re excited to accelerate the development of our first reactor.
Nuclear energy does not need to be <$0.04/kWh to deploy. Why spend so much capital just to sell a commodity? At @AntaresNuclear, we're building kilowatt-class reactors to enable mission capabilities that would otherwise be impossible.
We are beyond proud to be named among the fastest growing and most innovative technology companies in North America by @Deloitte#Fast500 https://t.co/1l7Mco2wFj
Which is scarier: school romance or corrupted dungeons? 😨
