1. MID Journey version 6 adheres more to prompts.
π₯85 00:23
Version 6 of MID Journey adheres more sensitively to prompts compared to version 5.2.
- Version 5.2 captured the main topic of the prompt but missed out on key relational details.
- Version 6 is an improvement and is getting closer to photo realism.
2. Use Magnific to upscale images for more lifelike results.
π₯92 01:25
Magnific is a web app that can upscale images to achieve more lifelike and photo realistic results.
- Simply drag and drop your image into the app and scroll down to upscale.
- Magnific can transform AI-generated images into something much more realistic.
3. Try using 'style raw' in MID Journey prompts.
π₯88 02:02
Using 'style raw' in MID Journey prompts can enhance the photorealism of the generated images.
- This approach transforms glossy AI-style images into more photorealistic ones.
- It is a useful tip to achieve better results in image generation.
4. Sam Altman invests $180 million in healthy lifespan extension.
π₯91 03:48
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, has personally invested $180 million in the life extension company Retro.
- Retro focuses on adding 10 good years to people's lives, not achieving immortality.
- The company's main bet is on partial cell reprogramming for age reversal.
5. Shift in language towards imminent age reversal.
π₯87 07:22
There is a shift in language in the field of longevity research, with claims of imminent age reversal.
- Researchers believe that cell reprogramming has solved the science behind age reversal.
- The 2030s are being spoken of as a potentially revolutionary decade for healthspan.
6. Big Tech's focus on longevity and healthspan.
π₯86 08:45
Big Tech leaders like Sam Altman and Jeff Bezos are investing in longevity research and healthspan.
- Altos Labs, funded by Bezos, aims to prevent diseases and aging within two decades.
- There is a split in opinions within Big Tech about pursuing longer lifespans.
7. Google's training of Gemini 2 and its compute capabilities.
π₯93 09:16
Google is already training Gemini 2, its next big model, and its compute capabilities far outstrip OpenAI's.
- Google's compute power with TPU V5s exceeds that of OpenAI, Meta, Core Weave, Oracle, and Amazon combined.
- Google's scale and compute capabilities give it a significant advantage in training and influence capacity.
