All reportsClaude Code Is Overheating: Cost and Skills Creators Should Check
How the coding agent works across terminal, IDE, web and Slack, what it really costs, and whether skills pay off, mapped to design, video and 3D workflows.
Pika H3 Flex Explained: A 6-Step Video Model That Makes Sound Too
Per Pika's own materials, H3 Flex is an open-weight model post-trained from MiniMax H3 that generates video and stereo audio together in just 6 denoising steps.
Blender 5.3 Beta, Gaussian Splatting and AI 3D Workflows
Free, open-source Blender leads its 5.3 beta with DLSS denoising and Gaussian splatting. We look at simulation and its growing role as a runtime for AI agents.
Why Midjourney Is Trending: Workflows and Alternatives Compared
Mentions of Midjourney are climbing as a web redesign and V8.2 API talk overlap. Here is what is confirmed, what is not, and how to work with it.
