Generative AI is actually going to populate the otherwise empty 3d canvas that is the so called metaverse

After the Iran war started the US asked satellite firms to delay (then pause) war zone imagery. Why let adversaries use commercial US assets for targeting? Now Iran has released their own imagery. WaPo geolocated them – exposing the full extent of damage to US military sites.

I love these projects because every city is already publishing itself, often unwittingly. Rodin published every towed car in SF in real time. SF noticed and shut the window in 3.5 hours. So many websites and services we use every day are effectively sensors to read world state.

Love this. Old school matte paintings are a perfectly good way to augment reality. Much larger field of view than holding up your smartphone too.

Open source real-time world models legit feel like puppeteering reality itself. Now @reactorworld is putting it in everyone’s hands at sub 50 ms latency — type a prompt, change the scene, and control what unfolds as it generates.

Synthetic Aperture Radar is cool af — a change detection machine that rips through cloud cover, day or night. And ICEYE knows how to show it.

Using AI is about to feel like screen sharing with a really smart and attentive genius. Maybe this is the year computer use AI starts feeling magical?

Big indoor scan – fully explorable in real-time on a browser. Distribution of 3DGS is pretty much solved. Blocker is still large scale capture – you need an expensive LiDAR + RGB scanner to get results like this. 360 video is still hard to pose indoors.
