Most image benchmarks test whether models can place objects and attributes. I wanted to know which ones offer photographic control. So I built the Filmmaker’s Benchmark to evaluate how film stock, lighting, and scan-treatment prompts change color, contrast, and texture.

Currently in my senior year for neurobiology & econ. When I was applying to college, I would've never anticipated what the world would look like by the time I graduated

Have been evaluating a bunch of image editing tools, and guys... Ideogram 4.5 is SOTA I've been testing it on increasingly complex images, and it just never fails. I really hope @ideogram_ai open sources it soon

We built the most physically accurate film emulation available. We’re releasing it for free. 126 stocks modeled on real film. Runs directly in your browser, @osmo_studio, DaVinci Resolve, and Premiere. Supports ARRI, Sony, Canon, RED, and more. Here’s what it looks like:

Something needs to be done about the Arena leaderboards. I can't believe they rank the image models in that order, and then people share the graphs like it's gospel

Introducing Ideogram 4.5, the most precise edit model. With each edit, leading models add artifacts, pixel shifts, and color changes. Ideogram 4.5 eliminates artifact buildup, making multi-turn editing possible. Live in Ideogram, the API, and launch partners. Open weights soon.

Introducing Emulate-1 A new undetectable AI model trained on how humans naturally write, removing AI slop and producing more authentic, human-sounding text. I ran Emulate's outputs through Pangram, one of the stricter AI detectors. They came back as human nearly every time

Emulate is trained directly on how humans naturally write to move beyond that default. Try a demo here! (Model is still in very early alpha and still improving!) tryemulate.ai

Emulate

Undetectable AI that sounds like you. Paste any AI draft and get it back in your own voice, or start from one sentence.

How well does it understand context? I’ve tried another writing API (Deft) and it can do a good job when there’s straightforward instructions, but I can’t use it for website copy because it can’t understand what my website even does

It’s crazy how many young Americans are so desperate for radical change but dismissive of the One Likely Shot We Have Right Now at facilitating it.

The vast majority of programmers see it as a massive productivity unlock. There are few stragglers who will be converted over time, and a few who are just crazy people.

Yeah, but most people have never touched a line of code. They don't have a frame of reference
