FCP reporter: so John, as the incoming CEO of Apple what things will you be implementing to make sure Final Cut Pro remains competitive?
John Ternus: Final Cut Pro? What's that?

We do it for ages in zerocam
Also we handcrafted it instead of vibecode.
keep an eye, we preparing very cool update very soon
So I recently badgered my cinematographer @steveyedlin into making my ideal iPhone still camera app. It shoots RAW, bypasses the iPhone's look processing and instead uses the same image processing we use on our movies. apps.apple.com/app/apple-sto…
i looked at my NLE of choice and sighed.
DaVinci Resolve 21.1.2! Adds up to 14x faster IntelliSearch analysis on Apple M6, improved timeline editing, up to 4x faster OGraf playback, Linux graphics support and expanded scripting APIs for automating photo and editing tasks. Download now from bmd.link/yoLPtr
search and rescue. sure.
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks.
By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time.
Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.
fun fact, i know billy evans (elizabeth holmes' husband) quite well
we were friends in college. he even filled in for a last minute cancellation and went on my bachelor party ski trip
we don't chat much these days, have hung out at a few mutual friends' weddings in the past couple of years
yes he has always had the shock-factor / self-involved / attention seeking personality, even in college. he'd acknowledge this
but he also had a genuinely kind and good natured side that we don't hear much about. trite to say, and i understand why you might not hear me, but he is a good person. he just is
the trial changed him. the cruel, brutal, harsh reality of his life predicament changed him. his edges are sharper and he come across as unhinged
but imo it's all a defense mechanism developed to protect himself and especially his family
the human mind, when cornered, behaves in unpredictable ways
the world is curb-stomping him over and over and over and over again, and he has two vulnerable little kids at home and a wife in prison.
if you were in his shoes, i promise you you'd behave in ways people would judge you for. i would.
i haven't said anything until now but the effect the whole ordeal has had on him gives me sadness. he didn't / doesn't deserve it, despite what you hear
i see many ppl taking sick pleasure in watching the trainwreck, schadenfreuding while his wife's choices and prison time cleaves a gash in the family
overanalyzing every possible detail that gets revealed with each new story
if you've ever been in a deeply difficult personal situation, or had a loved one who has, please just take a beat to empathize with their situation on some level
will probably delete this but just had to cathartically put this out in the world

#FCP Final Cut Pro + Claude or Codex is all you need- link in comments
the kind of video that interrupts my brainrot sesh which i expressly swipe up on after 0.1 seconds.
This video was made entirely by Claude. I just gave it the screen recording of my app and a really good script.

Companies swear they want to get closer to the customer, and then automate every path that leads to them.

ok genuine question and i’m not being obtuse — what is the whole discourse around “taste” right now?
i’ve only ever worked in the creative industry so taste is literally a prerequisite, never really discussed bc you would otherwise not be in the room
so is this “taste” conversation happening bc the world is now run by engineers who are trying to “solve” creativity?
also what the fuck is a moat?
i’m sorry
RIP video editors indeed
hate to say this but video editors are cooked
we paid an agency a lot of money to create our launch video, they worked on it for almost 2 weeks, and the cut still wasn’t what we wanted 2 days before the launch.
so even though i have zero video editing experience, I decided I'd do it with AI.
I gave Claude Opus 5.5 our raw footage and used the free version of DaVinci Resolve.
I prompted the cuts, animations and music, everything agentic without touching the clip manually once.
one crazy part is that Claude can't listen to the audio, but it was able analyze spikes in the sound data and reduced specific moments.
eventually I finished it right before the launch.
if anyone curious ping me in the comments and I'll share the agency version in private so you can see the differences.
i was talking 4 days with Claude
i was talking 4 days with Claude for this song
Berlin rave meets opera.
Human-made Slopcore.
