概要

 Hey guys, Alex here 👋 This week was so dense, that even my personal AI assistant Wolfred was struggling to help me keep up! Not to mention that we finally got to try one incredible piece of AI tech I’ve been waiting to get to try for a while! Clawdbot we told you about last week exploded in popularity and had to rebrand to Molt...bot after Anthropic threatened the creators, Google is shipping like crazy, first adding Agentic features into Chrome (used by nearly 4B people daily!) then shipping a glimpse of a future where everything we see will be generated with Genie 3, a first real time, consistent world model you can walk around in! Meanwhile in Open Source, Moonshot followed up with a .5 update to their excellent Kimi, our friends at Arcee launched Trinity Large (400B) and AI artists got the full Z-image. oh and Grok Imagine (their video model) now has an API, audio support and supposedly match Veo and Sora on quality while beating them on speed/price. Tons to cover, let’s dive in, and of course, all the links and show notes are at the end of the newsletter. Hey, if you’re in SF this weekend (Jan 31-Feb1), I’m hosting a self improving agents hackathon at W&B office, limited seats are left, Cursor is the surprise sponsor with $50/hacker credits + over $15K in cash prizes. lu.ma/weavehacks3 - Join us. Play any reality - Google Genie3 launches to Ultra Subscribers We got our collective minds blown by the videos of Genie-3 back in August (our initial coverage) and now, Genie is available to the public (Those who can pay for the Ultra tier, more on this later, I have 3 codes to give out!). You can jump and generate any world and any character you can imagine here! We generated a blue hacker lobster draped in a yellow bomber jacket swimming with mermaids and honestly all of us were kind of shocked at how well this worked. The shadows on the rocks, the swimming mechanics, and poof, it was all over in 60 seconds, and we needed to create another world. Thanks to the DeepMind team, I had a bit of an early access to this tech and had a chance to interview folks behind the model (look out for that episode soon) and the use-cases for this span from entertaining your kids all the way to “this may be the path to AGI, generating full simulated worlds to agents for them to learn”. The visual fidelity, reaction speed and general feel of this far outruns the previous world models we showed you (WorldLabs, Mirage) as this model seems to have memory of every previous action (eg. if your character makes a trail, you turn around and the trail is still there!). Is it worth the upgrade to Ultra Gemini Plan? Probably not, it’s an incredible demo, but the 1 minute length is very short, and the novelty wears off fairly quick. If you’d like to try, folks at Deepmind gave us 3 Ultra subscriptions to give out! Just tweet out the link to this episode and add #GenieThursdai and tag @altryne and I’ll raffle the ultra subscriptions between those who do Chrome steps into Agentic Browsing with Auto BrowseThis wasn’t the only mind blowing release from Gemini this week, the Chrome team upgraded the Gemini inside chrome to be actual helpful and agentic. And yes, we’ve seen this before, with Atlas from OpenAI, Comet from perplexity, but Google’s Chrome has a 70% hold on the browser market, and giving everyone with a Pro/Ultra subscription to “Auto Browse” is a huge huge deal. We’ve tested the Auto Browse feature live on the show, and Chrome completed 77 steps! I asked it to open up each of my bookmarks in a separate folder and summarize all of them, and it did a great job! Honestly, the biggest deal about this is not the capability itself, it’s the nearly 4B people this is now very close to, and the economic impact of this ability. IMO this may be the more impactful news out of Google this week! Other news in big labs: * Anthropic launches in chat applications based on the MCP Apps protocol. We interviewed the two folks behind this protocol back in November if you’d like to hear more about it. With connectors like Figma, Slack, Asana that can now show rich experiences* Anthropic’s CEO Dario Amodei also published an essay called ‘The Adolescence of Technology” - warning of AI risks to national security* Anthropic forced the creator of the popular open source AI Assistant Clawdbot to rename, they chose Moltbot as the name (apparently because crypto scammers stole a better name) Open Source AIKimi K2.5: Moonshot AI’s 1 Trillion Parameter Agentic MonsterWolfram’s favorite release of the week, and for good reason. Moonshot AI just dropped Kimi K2.5, and this thing is an absolute beast for open source. We’re talking about a 1 trillion parameter Mixture-of-Experts model with 32B active parameters, 384 experts (8 selected per token), and 256K context length.But here’s what makes this special — it’s now multimodal. The previous Kimi was already known for great writing vibes and creative ...
