Deepfakes: The Attention Budget Threat and Response Strategies
A framing I keep coming back to: a synthetic image or video can succeed even when almost nobody believes it. Not because it changes minds directly, but because it turns attention into the attacked resource. If a campaign, newsroom, platform, or company has to stop and answer the fake, the fake already got some of what it wanted: - the defenders spend scarce time verifying and explaining - the audience gets forced to process the claim anyway - every debunk risks replaying the artifact - institutions look reactive even when they are correct - the attacker learns which themes reliably pull defenders into the loop So detection is necessary, but not sufficient. The second half of the system is distribution response. A few practical design questions I think matter more than the usual “can we detect it?” debate: - Can we debunk without embedding, quoting, or rewarding the fake? - Can provenance signals move suspicious media into slower lanes instead of binary takedown/leave-up decisions? - Do newsrooms and platforms track attention budget as an operational constraint? - Can response teams separate “this is false” from “this deserves broad amplification”? - Can systems preserve evidence for verification while reducing replay value for the attacker? The failure mode is treating every fake as an information accuracy problem when some of them are closer to denial-of-service attacks on attention. Curious how people here would design the response layer. What should a healthy “quarantine lane” for synthetic media look like without becoming censorship-by-default?

10 Reasons Selling AI Tools to Developers is Challenging
Nowadays, everyone (including me) wants to sell AI-powered tools, platforms, or products. Few people (including me 6 months ago) have any idea how hard it is to approach and convince technical people for at least 10 reasons: 1 - They're constantly bombarded with messages. 2 - Everyone sells everything, so supply >>> demand. 3 - Extremely high background noise. 4 - They see an AI-generated message from 10km away (they've trolled me several times). 5 - If they have to go through a demo to try the product, they've already closed the tab. 6 - The opinions of devs, who value any glossy slide, count much more. 7 - Product trials are unforgiving; it's like being in court accused of 16 murders. If they find bugs or poor performance at that point, for them the product is broken and the window closes. 8 - They always have a plan B: I'll make it myself. Only 9 - If you don't have a solid track record (or you studied biotech like me), everything is 10x harder. 10 - Like the MasterChef judges, who used to be just chefs and now are atomic hotties, today's CTOs and top devs are stars; literally everyone wants them. It seems easier to scale a dev tool today because there are infinite tools, but in reality it's really tough. On the one hand, you have to earn the trust of technical teams through intros, messages, calls, and events; on the other, you have to scale at the speed of light because you're only six months old. Advice, ideas, scathing comments, insults? Anything goes. \*Not true

Exploring Unique Seedance 2.0 AI Video Applications
Been playing around with Seedance 2.0 since it dropped and the obvious use cases are everywhere — music videos, short films, social content. But I'm more curious about the less obvious applications people are finding. The one that caught my attention: someone embedded Seedance-generated video directly inside a business presentation. Not as a separate video file you play before the slides — actually inside the deck, as a slide element. The result looked genuinely cinematic rather than "corporate video" quality. Never really thought about AI video generation in a business context before. It's usually framed as a creative tool. What are the non-obvious Seedance use cases you've come across?

Self-Taught Developer from Bahrain Launches Multi-Model AI Platform
https://reddit.com/link/1sxotqx/video/xlaqd9i8guxg1/player I'm a self-taught developer, 39 years old, based in Bahrain. Four months ago I started building AskSary - a multi-model AI platform with a persistent memory layer that sits above all the models. The core idea: the model is not the identity. Most AI tools lose your context the moment you switch models. I built the layer that remembers you across all of them. Here's what's shipped so far: **Models & Routing** Every major model in one place - GPT-5.2, Claude Sonnet 4.6, Grok 4, Gemini 3.1 Pro, DeepSeek R1, O1 Reasoning, Gemini Ultra and more - with smart auto-routing or manual override. **Memory & Context** Persistent cross-model memory. Start with Claude on your phone, switch to GPT on your laptop - it already knows what you discussed. Proactive personalisation that messages you first on login before you've typed a word. **Integrations** Google Drive and Notion - connect once, pull files and pages directly into chat or your RAG Knowledge Base. Unlimited uploads up to 500MB per file via OpenAI Vector Store. **Video Analysis** \- Gemini native video understanding for YouTube URL analysis (no download required, processed natively) and direct file upload up to 500MB. Full breakdown of visuals, audio, dialogue, editing style and key moments. **Generation** Image generation and editing, video studio across Luma, Veo and Kling, music generation via ElevenLabs, video analysis via upload or YouTube URL. **Builder Tools** Vision to Code, Web Architect, Game Engine, Code Lab with SQL Architect, Bug Buster, Git Guru and more. Tavily web search across all models. **Voice & Audio** Real-time 2-way voice chat at near-zero latency, AI podcast mode downloadable as MP3, Voiceover, Voice Notes, Voice Tuner. **Platform** Custom agents, 30+ live interactive themes, smart search, media gallery, folder organisation, full RTL support across 26 languages, iOS and Android apps, Apple Vision Pro. **Where it is now** 129 countries. Currently at 40 new signups a day. 1080 Signup's so far after 4 weeks or so. MRR just started. Zero ad spend. All of it built solo, one feature at a time, on a balcony in Bahrain. **The Stack:** Frontend - Next.js, Capacitor (iOS and Android) and Vanilla JS / React Backend - Vercel serverless functions, Firebase / Firestore (database + auth) and Firebase Admin SDK AI Models - OpenAI (GPT, GPT-Image-1), Anthropic (Claude), Google (Gemini), xAI (Grok), DeepSeek Generation APIs - Luma AI (video), Kling via Replicate (video), Veo via Replicate (video), ElevenLabs (music), Flux via Replicate (image editing), Meshy (3D — coming soon) Integrations - Google Drive (OAuth 2.0), Notion (OAuth 2.0), Tavily (web search), OpenAI Vector Store (RAG), Stripe (payments), CloudConvert (document conversion), Sentry (error tracking), Formidable (file handling) Rendering - Mermaid (flow charts) and MathJax Platforms - Web, iOS, Android, Apple Vision Pro (visionOS) Languages - 26 UI languages with full RTL support [asksary.com](http://asksary.com) Happy to answer questions on any part of the build - stack, architecture, API cost management, anything.

AI Video Models' Bias: No Girls, Stereotypical Roles in '90s Toy Comme
So i was working on this Tabletop roleplaying game project and for my own amusement I told two different video generating ai models to generate "a '90s toy commercial featuring boys and girls of different races in halloween costumes saying "I've got the urge to be a pirate" "ive got the urge to be a ninja!" or spy or whatever they are dressed as" thats it thats the exact prompt, and both of them gave me very different products but both had zero girls, and in both the pirate was a black boy, the ninja an east asian boy, and the spy a white boy. Makes perfect sense in hindsight but I really didn't see it coming and most surprising (for me) is the black child as pirate. Kind of arbitrary but must be reflecting something in the data. Anyway, i found that kinda enlightening, maybe you will too, bye.

AI Video Tools for Ads and Content: A Comprehensive Review
Been experimenting with a few AI video tools recently to speed up content + ad creation, figured I’d share what actually stood out These tools are getting pretty good, especially if you don’t have a full editing setup or team Here’s a quick breakdown of what I tried: Runway What it does: Text/image to video + editing tools Cool stuff: Good quality outputs, lots of features Best for: Creative experiments, short clips My take: Powerful, but took me a bit to get consistent results Pika What it does: Generates short videos from prompts Cool stuff: Fast and easy to try ideas Best for: Quick social clips My take: Fun to use, but hard to control exact outcomes Synthesia What it does: AI avatar videos with voice Cool stuff: Clean talking head style content Best for: Tutorials, explainers My take: Solid for info content, less useful for ads InVideo AI What it does: Script to full video Cool stuff: Templates + automation Best for: Beginners, quick drafts My take: Easy, but everything started to feel templated Luma Dream Machine What it does: Realistic AI generated scenes Cool stuff: Visually impressive outputs Best for: Cinematic style clips My take: Looks great, but hit or miss depending on prompt Higgsfield What it does: AI video with more control over shots + motion Cool stuff: Can guide camera movement, pacing, structure Best for: Ads or anything that needs to feel intentional My take: Feels closer to actually building a video vs just generating one Biggest takeaways: most tools are great for ideas, not final ads control > randomness if you’re making anything performance focused you’ll probably end up combining tools instead of relying on one A lot of these have free tiers, so worth testing yourself If I had to pick one I’d keep experimenting with, probably higgsfield just because the extra control makes it feel a bit more usable for actual ad work Curious what others are sticking with rn 👀

AI Golf Coach: FlushedAI Launches on App Store
I am a 9 handicap from LA who spent way too much money on lessons over the last few years. Every coach told me something different. One said my takeaway was flat, the next said I needed more hip turn, a third said my shoulders were fine but my hands were late. I stopped knowing what to believe, and my handicap stopped moving. About a year ago I started building what I actually wanted: an AI that watches my swing, pulls out one specific fault per session, and gives me a drill I can do on the range that night. Not a generic YouTube drill, a drill that matches what it saw in the video. I wanted it to remember what we worked on last time. I wanted it to know when I had actually improved. That project is now FlushedAI. It launched on the App Store this month and we filed a patent on the coaching system in March. What it does: 1. Upload a swing video. The AI pulls the key frames and breaks down contact, path, face, tempo, and body sequencing. 2. It writes you a short summary in plain English, plus 3 drills tied to whatever the top miss was. 3. You log sessions (speed, smash factor, miss patterns) and it updates your focus over time. 4. There is also a map with 24,000+ courses worldwide where you can log sightings with friends and a wagers system for golf bets with your crew (AI scans the scorecard, settles the bet). Things I got wrong along the way: 1. First version used a generic vision model. It was confidently wrong about everything. Lesson: general AI is not a golf coach. We had to fine tune on actual swing footage with a PGA pro labeling it. 2. Tried to replace the teacher. Bad idea. The tool is better as a daily practice partner between lessons, not instead of lessons. 3. Built too much at launch. Shipped the swing analyzer, course map, wagers, and drill library all at once. Should have shipped swing analyzer alone and let the rest follow. Ask me anything. Happy to run a free swing analysis on anyone who drops a video in the comments, no app download required. Also giving out free Premium codes to the first 50 people in this thread who want to actually use it. Not trying to sell anything here. Mostly curious what the crowd thinks is missing in the current crop of swing apps.
