Wait... these were masked dancers in red jumpsuits a minute ago.
Pollo Recast replaced the whole crew and kept every step of the choreography. Same timing, same warehouse, same camera.

These developers will change the world.
In 2015, I built an AI that detects early cancer.
It’s still running across hundreds of hospitals in the US today.
It was the most fulfilling work of my life, and I was building in AI years before everyone called it “AI”.
Building in AI then was a dream.
Now It feels like we’ve taken a turn for the worse.
It started when i was in undergrad.
I built my first company: AI models that made the political data transparent to voters.
At 21, I was offered six figures for it, but the buyers wanted to use it for reasons I couldn't ethically support.
So we turned down the offer and shut down the company instead.
In 2014, I moved into deep learning research on language models, for the Intelligence Community and Goldman Sachs.
Then HCA Healthcare came to us.
They put me in a competition against 10 people from IBM Watson. It was just me and the tools I’d built.
Our job was to build an AI model that can catch the cancer that slips through the cracks in hospitals.
It was the most intense 30 days of my life. Multiple all nighters.
My models won. That turned into a $5M deal, and later its own company, Azra AI.
Then the world caught on.
ChatGPT and Claude arrived, and AI costs exploded.
Building in AI in 2015 felt novel.
We were using it to find cancer tumours and save lives.
Now the biggest tech companies have turned AI into a money extraction machine.
That’s when I decided to make a change.
We raised $8.5M to build a better future for AI.
On Wednesday, we’re launching Rayline.
AI shouldn’t be locked inside a few labs’ models, prices and clouds. It should be open, transparent and decentralized.
More on Wednesday.

Two ballgowns just fought in a real boxing ring 😭
Made with Pollo Recast by @itsPolloAI. I took a real boxing clip and swapped both fighters for new characters. Every punch, dodge, and camera cut stayed exactly the same.

Wait... that was a grown man on that swing 5 minutes ago
Pollo Recast replaced him with a grandma and kept every frame of the fall.
Same timing, same landing, same reaction from the kid running over.

🚨 someone just built architecture & design — a Steam early access tool that turns floor plans into real-time 3D buildings
A trained architect spent years on a side project so people could design buildings without fighting CAD.
Draw accurate 2D plans. Instantly see the full 3D building. Walk through it in first person or VR. Add stairs, multi-storey layouts, custom roofs, doors, windows, furniture, kitchens, materials, terrain, landscaping, ponds, time of day, and weather.
The newest update adds real growing ivy that climbs windows, corners, and curved walls.
→ 2D floor plans that stay accurate in 3D
→ first-person walkthrough + full VR mode
→ multi-storey buildings, stairs, and custom roofs
→ kitchen configurator, furniture catalog, and materials
→ terrain sculpting, landscaping, ponds, time of day, and weather
→ export clean PDF vector plans
→ import your own 3D models + Steam Workshop support
→ live now on Steam in early access as architecture & design
Built so architecture feels more like designing in a game than drafting in traditional software.
Who’s sketching a house in this next? 🔥

we just speedran your inbox.
you know what you want to say. typing it, deleting it, and making it sound professional is where the time goes.
with Tonebird, click the voice button right in your reply box and say the rough version. ramble if you need to.
it uses your intent and the conversation context to give you three polished reply options. pick one, insert it, and hit send yourself.
35 seconds in this demo: reply ready, two commitments captured as to-dos.
“quick reply” can finally stop being a lie.
Echo retweeted
we just made your calendar call your bullshit.
you said “I’ll do it.”
Tonebird made a task out of it.
commitments in your replies become To Dos. add them straight to your calendar or track them inside Tonebird.
Relationship Cards help you read the situation. voice input gives you three polished ways to reply.
and the promises you make along the way?
those now have somewhere to live besides your imagination.
Echo retweeted
we just approved talking shit at work.
to Tonebird.
please do not skip that part.
our new voice intent button sits right in your reply box. click it and say what you actually want to say, swear words and all.
Tonebird figures out the point you’re making and turns it into a polished reply your client can understand, with three different tones to choose from.
pick one, insert it, and hit send.
your client gets the professional version.
the bird gets the uncensored director’s cut.

we just fired Sherlock Holmes.
he was still scrolling up.
one “just following up” shouldn’t require reconstructing your entire relationship with a client.
what did we agree on? what have they delivered? what’s still missing? how friendly is this reminder, exactly?
Tonebird’s Relationship Cards use the context it can see across Gmail, Slack, Teams, and wherever you’re chatting to piece that together.
your relationship. previous commitments. what’s been delivered. what the other person might mean and expect next.
then that understanding helps shape a reply that addresses the situation and still sounds like you.
Sherlock can keep the coat.
the bird has the context.
Authenticity and professionalism are complementary at the senior level. The discipline lies in selecting the expression of intent that is appropriate to the context, audience, and objective

I’ve spent years losing track of client follow-ups and promises buried in threads. Something that actually remembers the context and drafts replies in my own voice would be a genuine relief. Curious to test it.
we just fired you, again.
your replacement is a bird. it knows who Sofia is.
apparently she’s your client, you owe her a quarterly review invite, and “I’ll remember” was not a functioning task management system.
Tonebird remembers the people you talk to, tracks the promises buried in your conversations, and uses that context to help you reply in your own voice.
so when someone follows up, you can answer without conducting a full investigation into what past-you agreed to.
you keep the job.
the bird gets custody of your unfinished business.

The real upgrade isn’t just longer videos. It’s having a clear workflow: character sheet → first frame → motion → final clip. Once that loop is solid, you can keep the same influencer and just change the routine.

3 weeks of living on X as someone doing growth for a consumer AI startup.
Honest notes from a newcomer, and a question for people who know this space better than I do.
First, X is the best place to learn about AI. News breaks here first, the people building the products are in the replies. Nowhere else feels quite like this.
But I’ve learned something else: product-market fit doesn’t automatically mean product-channel fit.
Our Halloween campaign got engagement, but not much interest in the product behind it.
Meanwhile, model labs and AI marketplaces run hackathons and competitions here that seem to take off. People use the models, build something, and share what they made.
The product itself creates the content.
And the biggest players have a second advantage: built-in distribution. @bot has X. Meta’s @Muse shows up across every Meta platform.
Small consumer AI startups don’t have that luxury. And even when we get attention, turning it into actual product usage is a different problem.
I’m starting to think distribution isn’t something you build around the product. It’s something you design into it.
So i got a question:
For consumer AI products whose aha moment isn’t naturally shareable, how do you build a growth loop that turns attention into actual usage?
Would love to hear how you’d think about this! @gregisenberg @MattSwulinski @nikitabier @andrewchen
