“A vertical video showing a photorealistic, AI-generated woman with bright red hair tied in a high ponytail. She wears a sleek black sleeveless dress and walks confidently toward the camera down a dimly lit, elegant hallway lined with large gold-framed mirrors. As she walks, she smiles and speaks to the viewer. A small "Veo" watermark is visible in the bottom right corner.“

Ever wondered how to turn a concept into a moving video? 🎥✨

I'm experimenting with the latest generative AI tools (Google Veo) to bring characters to life. This clip shows just how fluid the movement and facial expressions are becoming.
At "AI with the Blind," I'm breaking down how these tools work and how they are opening up visual creation for blind and low-vision creators.

@altbot If you use Gemini three, you’ll be able to process it just fine. It will produce a detailed frame by frame description of any video.

Crypto currency is unimportant, right?
Er no. Here's the why .... Thread

Christopher Harbone, who recently gave £9m to Reform, had previously given £10m to Brexit Party and £1m to #Johnson after he left office but Harbone himself is a major shareholder of Tether a crypto currency firm one that issues the world's largest 'stable coin' Tether claim each token they hold is backed by real world assets ------>

-------> yet it has never produced a full, independent audit of its reserves and has been fined by regulators for misleading statements about its backing. It has also faced allegations that its tokens have been used to facilitate money laundering, Russian sanctions evasion, and other illicit activity.

So why does this matter?

It has come to light that during the 2024 Presidental Elections Tether donated $270m to Trump and whilst Reform have been exposed how many other recipients are there?

Been working on an important series of follow-up stories about the evolution of the Aisuru botnet, an Internet-of-Things (IoT) botnet that's been blamed for successive record-smashing DDoS attacks in recent months. Meanwhile, the people who have controlled Aisuru for some time recently insisted up and down that they were not responsible for the massive Aisuru attacks of late.

Hats off to Xlab for this incredible report, which explains (to a degree) how Aisuru gave rise to a distinct botnet called Kimwolf, which has an estimated 2-3 million infected hosts and is growing rapidly. I don't have to tell anyone that if 800k bots from Aisuru can down the largest sites on the internet, Kimwolf can take down entire countries.
