You will never be as cool as Festus singing about raindrops in 1971, live on TV

Three years since the first flight of Starship, the next generation is here. New ship. New booster. New engines. New pad and new test site. SpaceX engineers are working to solve one of the most difficult engineering challenges in history: developing a fully, rapidly reusable rocket

Morgan (FlyDuoDiscus) landed a model rocket on his launch tower! "More than a year of work succeeds in just a few seconds of flight." Amazing.

This is crazy good.
Introducing, Act-One. A new way to generate expressive character performances inside Gen-3 Alpha using a single driving video and character image. No motion capture or rigging required. Learn more about Act-One below. (1/7)

Once again science fiction made real! #starship
Starship flip maneuver and landing burn on its fifth flight test. Vehicle improvements ensured flaps were protected from high heating, resulting in a controlled entry and high accuracy splashdown at the targeted area in the Indian Ocean

Amazing part II. Congratulations again to SpaceX and Elon, what a morning!
Splashdown confirmed! Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team on an exciting fifth flight test of Starship!

Congratulations SpaceX team and the @PolarisProgram crew!!
There are launches and then there are LAUNCHES!!! Hard to describe the blood, sweat and tears that got the @PolarisProgram crew to orbit today. Pictured below are just a few of the @SpaceX team members who made the mission happen with @elonmusk, shortly after launch All focus is now on safely completing the mission objectives, including the first ever commercial spacewalk, before bringing the astronauts home. Go Falcon! Go Dragon! Go @SpaceX!!!

An experiment using the wonderful voices of @elevenlabs to transform a short story into something else. Speech to Speech is really amazing.

Biggest takeaway from today's OpenAI announcement, @Scobleizer identified the elephant in the room. With this new release, will you open your desktop, phone, world to OpenAI? xitter.gq/Scobleizer/status/1789…
Based on previous shifts in my life, millions will protest that they never will use a personal AI assistant after tomorrow’s announcements by @OpenAI. Many said the same about Facebook. And everything that you own. Including the iPhone. I saw the resistance express itself so frequently that I have come to the belief that resistance against new ideas is necessary for that idea to gain widespread acceptance. Many don’t like being told what to use by others so will try it BECAUSE of the backlash. @garyvee and I loved when audiences told us they would never do something. It told us something big was about to happen. In my home the OpenAI personal assistant will be a trusted member of the family. This will disturb many.
