"Okay, are you ready? Let's go!" 🚀 This week we've got world-famous director & AI filmmaker @MetaPuppet, Head of Genre at @promise_ai, one of the biggest studios in AI-hybrid production and with top backing from Hollywood and Silicon Valley. If you haven't heard of them yet, Promise was one of the first doing it and has been all over social media and the news recently, including their CEO's interview at Bloomberg Screentime with friend of @CyberFilmAI and Saga, @EdLudlow. In this episode, Meta takes us BTS on Hardcore 94, a @Diesol original he's directing, and shows how the premise, characters, and distinctive visual style came together. Hear how the characters were conceived and brought to life, and what it takes to maintain that look across a full-length AI hybrid production in Hollywood. Watch the full episode on YouTube and our XCast below 👇

My friend Ken Ruckle took what could be one of the more insane sunset videos I’ve ever seen. This is over the bay behind Longport NJ tonight. 9/25/26 as our Nor’Easter closes in. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

We provided funding for a documentary series titled Bucks County, USA, that follows several families navigating the tensions that have come to define our politics. At the center of the story are two teenage girls whose parents have become bitterly divided over their kids’ education. The adults disagree about nearly everything, but the kids have figured out something many of us seem to have forgotten: you can disagree profoundly with someone and still care about them, listen to them, and remain friends. We can and must learn from our children. It starts streaming tomorrow, Sept 20th, on PBS.org and then on public television stations across the country. Join the conversation @BucksCountyUSA #BucksCountyUSA Don’t miss it.

STOP SCROLLING and WATCH THIS! Imagine if Steve Jobs woke up in 2026, what might it be like to walk around and see everyone out in public absorbed in their devices, disconnected from real life and each other, what would Steve think about it all from his perspective ? Steve Jobs, one of the most influential people of the modern era, his ideas changed our world, but was it for the better ? This is why AI filmmaking is such a powerful medium, to explore an idea that would be impossible to create before. Genmagnetic Presents : THE INFLUENCER
