What if a game character did not need thousands of pre-made animations to know how to walk, run, jump, crouch, or pick something up? What if an AI could simply generate the movement on the spot? That is the idea behind MotionBricks, a new research system from NVIDIA that is making serious waves in AI-powered animation and robotics. And the numbers are wild.
Imagine taking a single photo of a shoe, a coffee mug, a car engine, or even a game character... Then, just a few seconds later, having a fully textured 3D model that's ready to use in a video game, movie, AR app, online store, or industrial design software. That sounds like science fiction. Microsoft just made it real. The tech giant has open-sourced TRELLIS.2, a powerful new 4-billion-parameter AI model that transforms a single image into a production-ready 3D asset
or the past few days, one question has dominated conversations in the AI industry: Is Anthropic trying to stop OpenAI models? The speculation spread quickly after nearly every major AI company, including Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta, Hugging Face, Mistral, and others, signed a public letter urging governments not to impose sweeping restrictions on open-weight AI models. One notable name was missing from that list.
The AI race just took another dramatic turn. For months, the biggest conversation in artificial intelligence has been about who can build the smartest models. Now, the focus is shifting to something even more controversial: Who owns the technology behind them? The United States has warned that Chinese AI companies could face sanctions if investigators determine their AI models were built using intellectual property stolen from American firms.
Most AI tools today feel like assistants. You ask. They answer. Done. But what if an AI didn’t stop there?
Wait… so after accidentally leaking part of its code, Anthropic is now planning to open-source everything and rename Claude to OpenClaude? Yeah… that’s the rumour flying around. But before you run with it, let's break it down properly.
