Plus, Gavin tells us about the new motion brush update from RunwayML (it's awesome), Kevin gets frustrated trying to make burgers with ChatGPT (not awesome), ActAnywhere is a cool new white paper that will let you place people in videos…anywhere & of course, it's an election year and hoo boy are some people up to some not good stuff.
