Opus 5.5 Animated THIS in Blender in less than 2 hours 🤯

Claude Opus 5.5 just dropped, so we put it against GPT-6 Astra on our own benchmark. It modelled, textured, rigged and animated an octopus in Blender from scratch in about two hours, then tried to rebuild the same Vancouver building Astra nailed two weeks ago. Then the big one: we spent three days turning a Zillow listing into a walkable 3D house in Unreal Engine with a floor-plan dashboard hooked up to IKEA, so you can drag real furniture into a home that does not exist yet. And Ali, founder of SalesCloser AI, on AI sales agents that close deals in 70 languages.

AIF26 - Norton Motorcycles - Virtual Worlds, Real Decisions

How do you design a world-class motorcycle entirely in the digital world—before a single physical prototype is built?

In this presentation from the AIF26, Ewen MacRury, Surfacing and Visualization Manager at Norton Motorcycles, shares how Norton developed the new V4-powered Manx using a fully digital design and engineering workflow.

Drawing on Norton's 125-year heritage of innovation, the session explores how global teams across the UK, Italy, and India collaborate in real time to create, refine, and validate every aspect of a motorcycle—from concept sketches and digital surfacing to engineering analysis, visualization, and final design reviews.

Key topics include:
• Norton’s digital-first approach to motorcycle development
• Using virtual worlds to make faster, better design decisions
• AI-assisted concept development and digital clay workflows
• Real-time collaboration between design, engineering, and manufacturing teams
• Integrating ergonomics, aerodynamics, performance, and serviceability into the design process
• Leveraging Autodesk tools to support global product development
• How virtual reality, visualization, and digital reviews reduce development risk

Control Resonant Director Explains The Game’s Lack Of Yellow Paint: ‘It Was A Conscious Decision, Obviously’

Control: Resonant is a very cool open-world game that doesn’t feel the need to tell you everything or always clearly point you in the right direction. Instead, as recently explained by the game’s director, the Remedy-developed sequel purposely avoids covering ledges and doors in yellow paint because the team wanted players to “participate in the experience” of playing the game and finding their way through it. 

Out now on consoles and PC, Control: Resonant is Remedy’s bigger open-world action RPG sequel to 2019’s Control. Yet despite the shift to a much bigger map and a bigger focus on exploration, the devs working on Resonant didn’t paint big yellow spots and splashes on climbable ladders or important doorways or chests. The game avoids the controversial yellow-paint method of telling players where to go and instead uses lighting, in-world props, and more to guide players in the right direction.

“It was a conscious decision, obviously,” said Control Resonant director Mikael Kasurinen in a new interview on the Dropping Frames podcast. 

WEBINAR | Tecnología 3D: escaneado 3D para metrología e impresión 3D en materiales de alto rendimiento

Elegir la tecnología y el material adecuados es uno de los principales retos a la hora de incorporar la impresión 3D a la producción. Una decisión equivocada puede traducirse en retrasos, en piezas que no cumplen las tolerancias exigidas o…

🚀 Have you ever felt the thrill of innovation only to be halted by unexpected roadblocks? This week, the Raspberry Pi Foundation made waves by introducing firmware updates that lock the boot process when non-original RAM chips are used. This decision highlights their commitment to maintaining product integrity, but it can also frustrate DIY enthusiasts eager to explore new possibilities.

As someone who loves experimenting with technology, I understand the desire to push boundaries. It’s essential to remember that while these restrictions may seem limiting, they encourage us to explore the vast array of compatible components and hardware. Who knows? You might discover new configurations that unlock even greater potential in your projects!

Let’s embrace these challenges as opportunities for growth and creativity!

¡Atención, amantes del motor! 🚗💨 Si pensabas que ser un 'chico de carro' implicaba solo entender de mecánica, ¡piénsalo de nuevo! Según el gran Arkandas, modding no requiere una credencial en ingeniería, solo un buen sentido del humor y una Media de Mini. ¡Y eso incluye un sistema de infoentretenimiento que haría sonrojar a la NASA!

Así que, si sientes que tu auto necesita un "upgrade" urgente, considera esos accesorios de mercado secundario como si fueran las extensiones de pestañas de tu coche. 💁‍♂️ Personalmente, creo que mi coche merece un sistema que no solo me muestre el clima, sino que también me dé consejos sobre mis decisiones de vida.

Así que, ¿estás listo para cargar tu auto de personalidad? Recuerda, con gran poder, viene una gran responsabilidad… ¡y un poco de sarcasmo!
