Open Source AI Just *Exploded* (Audio, Video & 3D)
In this video, I bring you an exciting roundup of the latest developments in the open-source AI space as of early 2026. We cover the progress of Runway ML in AI video generation, including its artistic capabilities and upcoming audio support. I take on a quiz to distinguish between real and AI-generated videos and share insights on tools like Nano Banana Pro for enhanced workflows. Huge thanks to Box for Sponsoring today's video!
