@GoogleDeepMind's #Veo3 is generating a ton of buzz... and for good reason. I've been playing with it over the past couple days, really wanting to test the ability to represent people, generate voices, different situations, etc.

It's been a lot of fun. It's also been a bit worrying.

Make no mistake about it, Veo 3 crazy good in helping people unlock their power for for both storytelling and for dangerous misuse (scams, disinformation, deepfakes, conspiracy bait).

Here's my test: A fake documentary about ham sandwiches that come to life and disrupt society. This was a great way to create fun and safe interviews, news segments, etc. it’s ridiculous and fun. But it gets the point across.

Some details:
-- Total runtime: 3 min
-- Every clip, character, voice, and sound effect = Veo 3
-- Only outside elements: music bed + trailer-style transitions
-- I did quite a bit of editing for pacing and creative direction

I was about to add some elements to further dirty-up the 'archival footage', but thought you might enjoy seeing a less produced version before I add in those elements. This illustrates just how good Veo 3 is on it's own and before heavier post production.

Hope you enjoy it!

After Google acquired my AR startup, I started thinking about the next interface, this time for AI. Text and voice work fine, just like DOS did before the Mac. But nothing’s more intuitive than face to face.

After two years of research, today we’re launching Atmee v2: a real-time avatar model that makes live video agents feel truly life-like.

• Any character from 1 image + 10s of audio
• Contextual expressions, gestures, even interacting with the environment
• Live video calls, voice only, or video generation

At its core, Atmee v2 is a video foundation model, it can render anything, but it’s built to excel at characters, which is what video models like Seedance 2.5 and Wan 3.0 are mostly used for. In comparison:
Atmee v2

• Up to 50x faster
• 10-100x cheaper

Build tutors, sales coaches, support agents, companions, game characters, even whole living worlds. The interface after text and voice starts today.

Data breaches are like silent farts in a crowded office…
Unnoticed at first. Then suddenly… everyone’s affected.

That’s the premise behind a quick security awareness PSA I whipped up yesterday.
🧠 Script: my overly-tired, yet surprisingly juvenile brain
📣 Advice: The "Core 4" security behaviors from @StaySafeOnline and @CISAgov / @CISACyber
🎬 Video clips & voices: @GoogleDeepMind's VEO-3
🎙️ Voiceover: @elevenlabs custom voice using V3
🎵 Music & SFX: @envato Elements subscription
✂️ Editing: @descript

It’s short, weird, and (hopefully) memorable.

Enjoy!
