Hey, this is Alex, welcome back to your weekly dose of intense AI acceleration summer!My weekend was consumed by thinking about the OpenAI hack and agent swarms, but then the torrent of AI releases took over, and we got back to back news (including 3 breaking news during the live show), with a heavy open source focus!I think the winner of this week is SpaceXAI/Cursor who released 3.5 releases, with one being my highlight of the week, Grok Bot (I've invited Shub Gaur from Cursor to the show to walk us through it) and Grok 4.6 which matches Opus at half the price.There was a LOT of news in open source this week as well, with Meta kicking off with Muse Glimmer 30B and promising Muse Spark 1.2 soon, Qwen dropping Qwen 3.8 open weights and DeepSeek dropping an anvil with an upgraded DeepSeek v4 Pro and MIT license!Let's dive in (and please don't forget as a reader you get 100% off the 1299 ticket to Fully Connected, our 2000 person Al event in SF in Sept, just use THURSDAIFC2026 as your code and see you there!)0:00 The Wildest Week in AI Yet3:45 How OpenAI's Agent Swarm Hacked Hugging Face17:02 The Week in AI: DeepSeek, Qwen, Grok & More25:54 NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 & Korea's Motif 332:45 DeepSeek V4 Pro, Flash & an Open Harness39:46 Qwen 3.8 Max and Its Missing Vision Tower43:30 What Is Grok Bot?

After the cursor acquisition, and the integration of all of the parts into SpaceXAI, they have released 2 huge things this weekGrok 4.6 - Ties with GPT 5.6 SOL and half the price and much speed.I've had the pleasure to host Goerge Cameron from Artificial Analysis on the show today, and I asked him, what is the best models. His answer, it's a 3 factor answer, intelligence, speed and cost per task .Well, if you use their nifty “recommend a model“ tool on the homepage, you'll see that Grok 4.6 beats most other models on all of those! But, is it really that good? Models are really hard to evaluate and compare lately. It's definitely a huge step up from Grok 4.5, with 61.3 on Frontier Code (beating Sol and just after Opus 5) and #4 on Apex-agents (+10 points from previous Grok). on Artificial Analysis this model lands at #4 on intelligence, while being #5 on speed all while being half the price of the models that are above itAs far as the tech goes, this model card confirms that it no longer has the Cursor Bench leaked into it's weights and it's #1 on that benchmark! It's the same 1.5T v9 base at the same price, with Elon claiming that 4.7 is going to mog the competition in 3-4 weeks.Everyone has a harness, now everyone has a swarm of bots - My Grok Bot review (x.ai/bot)You guys know all about OpenClaw and Hermes, and Claude CoWork and Codex rebrand, and all of them are trying to nail down the same, always-on, autonomous agents that can do things for you.Hermes and OpenClaw require you to have an always on computer, mess with API keys, Claude Cowork doesn't run on the cloud and ChatGPT work starts a fresh session every time you ask a new thing.Grok Bot (again, awful name) is the first one that seems to nail all of what I want in an always-on agent ... swarm. That's right, this isn't one agent with multiple personalities (like OC, Hermes), there's a bot here for every task, and you dont' have to manage context, queues, API keys (can if you want to) and models.Oh, also ,there's no model picker, it's just Grok 4.6 deciding for ya, and it's really fast!Swarm of bots, working for you, each with their own computerI am not getting paid for this (besides being provided a free account for cursor, but I've had it for 6 months and haven't used), it's really that good, the Cursor folks did some magic there. They picked up the most important parts of personal agents, like the (ios-only) mobile app (app store)You can start a task on your mac, pick it up on your phone, get notified on your phone/mac, and the killer thing is, they are giving your bots their own computer, which can do things (especially if you're ok with logging in there to your accounts!)The kicker for me is the very very well done agent to agent communication there, which is transparent but read only to you. You can ask your bots to spin up other bots, but unlike sub-agents, they are actual bots with their own identity. You can even tag them in other chats and create group chats! There's no context to manage, they do the work for you and so far this wasn't a problem at all.On the model side, Grok 4.6 seems to be doing an excellent job with agentic long running tasks that require coding and computer use, I've just been chatting with the bots and not thinking about any of the things I used for Hermes and OpenClaw.What about Vendor Lock-in? Giving Elon data?Some of these comments our fans raised during the show are very valid, after all, not only is the world divided on Elon Musk (which makes it REALLY hard to judge the models they release just on vibes from X btw, we talk about this constantly) but also, remember that Grok 3 started going off on X and called himself Mechahitler and just recently Grok CLI was caught uploading all of your data to X servers, which was reversed very quickly.Honestly, I think there's a very very good chance that this Grok Bot interface, which is geareed toward the less technical users, folks who don't need the code-diff side pane, and don't know/care what compaction is, and just want agents to do things for them, is goign to win much of this trust back. It just works, truly, for a beta product it's really well executed by whoever worked on this!Security and key managementOne of the best parts for me with this Grok Bot, is that the connectors are the same connectors you use in Cursor! There's a LOT of them (Cursor after all has been one of the first apps to start adding AI agents) and this also means that they take the security very seriously.Every API key that you want to add, is not shown to the bot, each bot lives in an isolated environment, and for stuff like payments and log-ins, it gives you back the control of it's computer for you to complete!I also love this section in settings, which makes auto-approve work for you: you define rules with natural language that you always want the bot to ask you before... sending an email or posting on your behalf or what not.Chief of staff pattern to get startedIn case you're convinced enough to give it a try (it's free trial for 1 month, and the cheaper way to get it is via Cursor's 149$ plan and not via the Grok Ultra plan which is 249), here's a recommended pattern that works very well.Create a chief of staff bot, have it interview you about everything you are doing in your day to day, work and personal, then decide how much permissions you wanna give it, start little.Then ask your chief of staff to create bots for some of the work it can try and help you with, focus on “reduce cognitive load”.And then see the magic come to life. If you have skills or memory from other bots, you can just ... import it in.Then try setting up an automated email checker bot, and have your chief of staff surface only the most important emails you have to actually respond to.Another great pattern is setting up a bot with the last30days research skill (we covered it with Matt Van Horn) and have a research bot for every topic you want to deep dive into.Schrodinger's GrokI haven't quite named it like that, but we've covered all Grok released on the show (tracking 24 on https://thursdai.news/companies/xai excluding this week) and ... it's always very hard to judge Grok model released based on X feed vibes. It's either AI influencers who want Elon to retweet them, glazing the models, or folks who hate Elon for his political views or whatever, ignoring their (truly insane progress).This time, both the model and Grok Bot are getting very very good reviews, from folks like our own Ryan Carson, Lenny Rachitsky, Rubben Hassid and Roberto P Nickson. Not folks who are swayed lightly, but also, yours truly. I really do think there's something great here, worth trying out, especially if you've struggled to maintain your OC/Hermes and want agents to work for you 24/7. LMK if you have questions about it and your experienceOpen Source AI and other newsI want to continue with this new newsletter that covers 1 big story, but I can't leave you uninformed about the most important developments in AI and Open SourceDeepSeek V4 pro 0813 is in GA - MIT licensed chonker with 1.7T parameters (X, Blog, HF, GitHub)The whale is back with a vengeance, DeepSeek resurfaced with their flagship response to Kimi K3 and with MIT license, we can't complain.1M context window, 49B active parameters but it seems to underperform, landing at 54 on the Artificial Analysis leaderboard. However, they did show a significant improvement on DeepSwe (from 12.8 points in the preview version of V4 to 62.7 in this one)We still think it's a good model sir, and definitely worth trying out!Additionally, DeepSeek released their own harness on Github (hitting 23K stars in less than 24 hours) which seems to be exciting as well, give it a try.Meta comes back to open source with Muse Glimmer (30B) and promise to open source Muse Spark 1.2 (X, Blog, HF)We would like to officially welcome back Meta to the open source AI community, as they release their smaller Muse model called Glimmer!The highlights, it runs on a single 24GB consumer GPUs, gets 51 on Swe-bench Pro, beating Qwen 3.6 27B. And with DFlash speculative-decoding, it delivers 233tok/s on RTX 5090.Zuck promised us the bigger Muse Spark 1.2 in open source and published a long essay on superintelligence and that it should be distributed to everyone, which we applaud and it's great to see the commitment reinforced! welcome back Meta!This weeks buzzShort interjection from our only sponsor, CW this week.1 - Join 1500 ai practitioners (and a live ThursdAI recording) at Fully Connected Sep 29-31 in SF - use code THURSDAIFC2026 (Register here)2 - We have day-0 support for Nvidia's latest Nemotron 3.5 lightning (CW Inference)Gemini 3.7 Flash - breaking in the middle of the showJust as we had George Cameron from Artificial Analysis on the show, Gemini dropped Gemini 3.7 Flash, and it's a speedy beast! Clocking at over 300t/s, it's google's mid-tier model, think Sonnet/Terra competitor, that is also great at multimodal (I think it's one of the only ones that can watch videos)It beats Muse Spark 1.2 on DeepSWE and lands near the cost-per-task Pareto frontier on Artificial Analysis. For the cost/speed/intelligence trade-off, this model is now #1 on Artificial Analysis selector of best models!That's a wrapThis was the first week of the shorter newsletter experiment: one big story done properly, and trust that you'll listen to the show for the rest (it's 2.5 hours of exactly this, with demos). Tell me if you hate it. Our release index at thursdai.news tracked 71 releases in July alone, so something had to give, and it wasn't going to be my weekends.See you at Fully Connected Sept 29 (code's in the intro, come say hi to me and Wolfram at Moscone), and if you try the Grok Bot chief of staff pattern, I genuinely want to hear how it goes.ThursdAI - Highest signal weekly AI news show is a reader-supported publication.

I'm not gonna lie everyone, I've given this AI "summary" program quite a few tries the past few weeks and it's been total ass, so I'm just gonna say enjoy this fantastic conversation with Nick Matthews, the DP off "Saw X". I absolutely adored this conversation, he's a fantastic DP and a wonderful man, and it was a privilege to talk to him. --- NOW, a little inside baseball... I've been emailed too many times from this "podcast assistant" company about giving advice to them... so now having used their product (that I paid for) you tell me what you think of their work. Here we go: "Listen in as I'm joined by the talented Nick Matthews, the Director of Photography for Song X, as we journey through the evolution of camera technology in filmmaking. From the days of traditional tube cameras to the digital cinema revolution, we reminisce on the progression and reminisce on the good old days of stacking ND filters and metal tubes. As technology continues to evolve, we share our insights on how filmmakers are becoming more camera agnostic and how to maximize resources even with limited budgets. We continue our engaging conversation by sharing our experiences on transitioning from non-union to union work, discussing the nuances of false color and the unique approaches for DPs. Gearheads will love our chat about the gear I use and how I prove to people they'll love the results. We also fondly look back at the Nycore lenses and the T2i camera, which I bought as a hipster. We then move on to the essential aspects of workflow in shooting a scene, lens selection, and how a c500 can simplify the process. As we conclude our discussion, Nick and I explore the exciting world of film lighting and color palette. From discussing the challenges of incorporating glamorization techniques into cinematography to creating a unique color palette for films like Saw X, we touch on various aspects that go into creating a compelling visual narrative. We even discuss the emerging Chinese lenses in the market and the challenges of working with international crews. Lastly, we share our experiences in color grading, the importance of hiring a colorist whose vision aligns with yours, and how to build a successful filmmaking career."

With the advance of text-to-image models (e.g., Stable Diffusion) and corresponding personalization techniques such as DreamBooth and LoRA, everyone can manifest their imagination into high-quality images at an affordable cost. Subsequently, there is a great demand for image animation techniques to further combine generated static images with motion dynamics. In this report, we propose a practical framework to animate most of the existing personalized text-to-image models once and for all, saving efforts in model-specific tuning. At the core of the proposed framework is to insert a newly initialized motion modeling module into the frozen text-to-image model and train it on video clips to distill reasonable motion priors. Once trained, by simply injecting this motion modeling module, all personalized versions derived from the same base T2I readily become text-driven models that produce diverse and personalized animated images. We conduct our evaluation on several public representative personalized text-to-image models across anime pictures and realistic photographs, and demonstrate that our proposed framework helps these models generate temporally smooth animation clips while preserving the domain and diversity of their outputs. Code and pre-trained weights will be publicly available at https://animatediff.github.io/ . 2023: Yuwei Guo, Ceyuan Yang, Anyi Rao, Yaohui Wang, Y.

“Jail is a place that people go to suffer in silence”   Andre Norman is the reason to believe in second chances. His tenacity and passion for people led him to start his transformational program, The Academy of Hope, a program designed to reduce institutional violence in prisons by providing an intense level of intervention while also creating a positive environment for the inmate population and staff.   Nearly two decades ago, Norman was serving a 100-year sentence in prison, but he was no regular prisoner. A natural-born leader, he rose to be the top gang leader within the facility, running all the daily gang activity.   After an epiphany in solitary confinement, Norman made the decision to turn his life around. He had a simple dream to attend Harvard University and become successful. Over the next 8 years, Andre worked 20-hour days to make this dream a reality. He taught himself how to read, then to study and understand the law, and then volunteered to participate in anger management groups.    After winning his appeal and being armed with a GED and a dream, Andre walked out of prison in 1999, after serving 14 years.   Norman released his first book titled “Ambassador of Hope: Turning Poverty and Prison into a Purpose-Driven Life.” He also is developing various training manuals to help better serve companies and institutions.   Resources:   Instagram: @Andrenorman Twitter: @Andrenorman

"Life is too short to wear tight shoes"   Pammy takes us on a journey from her childhood where she was born in the 60's in inner city Coventry to a Sikh immigrant family. At 16, a school trip introduced her to the mountains where she experienced the WOW moment that changed her life. A force much bigger than her took her to explore wild landscapes of the world! Not something her parents or community were keen on.   Pammy takes us on a journey of self-discovery, understanding and respecting differences and a passion for environmental protection.   Pammy has been an outdoor/environmental practitioner since 1979 and in 1995 it struck her hard as she noticed the lack of Black, Asian & Minority Ethnic role models in the sector, at every level, from service users to Board level and felt very strongly this had to change.   Back in 1995 Pammy started what is now called Backbone C.I.C   Backbone is a leading Black, Asian & Minority Ethnic outdoor environmental education organisation acknowledged on a national and global platform for successfully addressing diversity and inclusion in the sector. ----------- Thank you for listening to the Tales To Inspire Podcast!

Is it possible to save some money and use a DSLR as an HD video source for Telestream Wirecast? Robbie and Sasha set out to find out on this episode of Category5 TV.

Show Notes and comments.

Episode 22 with guest DJ Vegh - of PhotoShipOne and AZ Choper Cam - on the Digital Convergence Podcast by 16x9 Cinema with host Carl Olson - a visual artist, photographer, and filmmaker based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Featuring: DJ Vegh - Founder of PhotoShipOne and AZ Chopper Cam.What if you could mount a Canon 5D Mark II, 7D or T2i on an aerial platform to shoot unique above ground POV shots? You can! DJ Vegh has mastered the use of radio controlled electric-powered helicopters as an aerial platform for the photography and video. If take a look at some of DJ demo videos on Vimeo and his websites, you will be amazed by what can be accomplished with these aerial platforms. DJ is an accomplished photographer, videographer and post-production editor. He also holds a fixed-wing pilot license. With over ten years of experience in aerial video and still photography, it was only natural that he would make good use of his practical mechanical design and aviation experience to concoct an amazing platform for shooting HD and HD DSLR video. Dj was recently invited to use his aerial platform to shoot aerial scenes for Discovery channel's popular TV show Mythbusters. DJ talks about how he developed the PhotoShipOne system. What does it take to learn how to fly these RC copters? How long does it take to learn? How do you setup the camera for taking video? What lens is best? How do you achieve smooth fluid motion? How do you line and monitor the shot in-flight? How do you determine proper exposure? Who are using these platforms today?
