Everyone is sick of generic AI, including us. Gamma was the first AI presentation platform to reach real scale. But now that AI tools are everywhere, everything looks the same. Earlier this summer, we came to an uncomfortable conclusion: without a step change in visual variety, Gamma’s output would look and feel too similar to all the other AI tools. The entire point of a presentation is to help someone "get" your idea, to see it as unique and do something with it. We started over. Today we're shipping Gamma 5, the biggest product overhaul in our company's history. We rebuilt Gamma to create presentations that actually look like you and your brand. Your teams can design anything they dream up, following your brand's aesthetic or something entirely new, with every frontier and image model under the hood. And the same goes for your docs, social assets, and graphics. We revamped our agent, design tools, editing, import, export, connectors, and more. Get your ideas out there.

Getting the pre-triathlon jitters.

Another great evening geeking out on science and automation with fellow biotech nerds. Thanks for what you do for the community @indbio and @vandontweets!

A preprint of my postdoc work is finally live! 🥳 We push the boundaries of synthetic biology in plants with a huge collection of new tools for constructing/tuning synthetic genetic circuits in plants. We use these circuits to engineer root structure 🌱 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

You can track the location of ships in real-time. It's all public data. vesselfinder.com/ Super cool!

Love how much work they put into the aesthetics of this RL environment!

I was looking forward to this episode with @profplum99 on @ErikSTownsend's new Smarter Markets podcast, and they delivered big time! Some takeaways 👇

If you write fiction, you have to choose names for characters and places even if they are not critical to the story. If you do engineering, you have to choose names for variables, and details like shaft diameters even if specific bindings don’t matter. Therein lies a rhyme.
