🧠 The U.S. Launches a National AI-for-Science Push
The U.S. Department of Energy announced agreements with 24 organizations to advance the Genesis Mission, a large-scale effort to apply AI to scientific discovery. The initiative aligns with the Trump administration’s AI action plan and focuses on building a national AI infrastructure for research.
The Shift:
1. A 24-Partner AI Coalition - Genesis brings together frontier AI labs, cloud providers, chipmakers, and software firms, including OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, NVIDIA, Microsoft, and AWS to collaborate directly with U.S. national laboratories.
The initiative connects 17 national labs and roughly 40,000 researchers, applying AI to automate experiments, accelerate simulations, and improve predictive modeling across energy, manufacturing, and scientific research.
2. Early Access to Frontier Models - Google DeepMind will grant early access to AlphaEvolve, AlphaGenome, and AI co-scientist tools, while OpenAI models are already running on Los Alamos National Laboratory’s Venado supercomputer.
AWS is committed to up to $50 billion in AI infrastructure, supported by partners like AMD, Intel, Oracle, Cerebras, and CoreWeave, with all Genesis outputs designed to remain architecture-agnostic.
Genesis represents a coordinated national bet on AI as core scientific infrastructure, not just a commercial tool. By aligning frontier models, massive computing, and public research at scale, the U.S. is signaling that AI-driven science is now a strategic priority alongside energy and national security.

🎬 How to Create Cinema-Grade Videos Using Higgsfield Cinema Studio
Higgsfield Cinema Studio brings high-end camera gear and film-level tools into an AI workspace so you can generate professional visuals without a crew or physical equipment.
1. Describe your shot: Tell Higgsfield the scene you want, e.g., “Slow 4K product reveal with cinematic depth and dramatic lighting.” The system understands framing, movement, and lighting.
2. Pick your gear and style: Choose from professional bodies like ARRI, RED, Sony Venice, Panavision, or IMAX and 11+ lenses for different cinematic looks.
3. Add camera movement: Select from 15+ director moves (dolly, crane, push-in, etc.) to shape narrative pacing and mood.
4. Generate & download: Higgsfield renders your scene in 4K with lighting, movement, and composition baked in, ready for ads, reels, or brand films.
✨ Studio-level visuals made accessible to everyone.
🎬 AI Video Tools Shift Toward Control and Verification
Luma and Google released updates that tackle two sides of AI video creation. Luma focused on tighter control over human performance and continuity, while Google expanded Gemini’s AI video verification. Available via Luma Dream Machine’s new model, Ray3 Modify is backed by a $900M funding round, with plans for a 2GW AI compute cluster in Saudi Arabia.
The Shift:
1. Luma Preserves Human Performance - Ray3 Modify lets creators transform existing footage using character reference images while retaining original motion, timing, eye line, and emotional delivery, enabling AI-assisted edits without sacrificing actor authenticity.
Creators can provide start and end frames to guide transitions, movements, and scene continuity, allowing controlled edits across costumes, identities, and performances without physical reshoots.
2. Gemini Expands AI Video Verification - Gemini can now determine whether a video was made or edited with Google AI by scanning for its SynthID watermark. The tool can point to specific timestamps where AI-generated visuals or audio appear.
Verification supports videos up to 90 seconds or 100MB and is available globally, but only applies to Google-generated content.
As AI video tools mature, scrutiny is increasing on both outputs and inputs. Adobe now faces a proposed class-action lawsuit alleging pirated books were used to train its SlimLM model via SlimPajama, derived from RedPajama and Books3, underscoring how provenance and training data transparency are becoming unavoidable issues alongside creative control.
TOGETHER WITH ROKU
Shoppers are adding to cart for the holidays
Over the next year, Roku predicts that 100% of the streaming audience will see ads. For growth marketers in 2026, CTV will remain an important “safe space” as AI creates widespread disruption in the search and social channels.
