ByteDance just dropped Seedance 2.0 over the weekend, and the early takes are wild. One game developer called it "the best video generation model on the planet." The model outputs video with camera movements so smooth it looks shot on a gimbal. Chinese media stocks jumped 7-20% on the news. This dropped days after Kuaishou released Kling 3.0 with similar multimodal capabilities. The AI video race in China is getting exceptionally good.

Today in AI:
→ Meta AI suddenly looks useful by integrating OpenClaw
→ Elon Musk wants to build data centers in orbit
→ How to Setup OpenClaw

Let's dive in..

I've ignored Meta AI for months. That might've been a mistake.

They just leaked a major platform overhaul: browser agents, calendar integrations, a new reasoning model called Avocado. That $2 billion Manus acquisition is shipping. Meta AI is about to actually do things on the web instead of just talking about them.

Here's what caught my eye:

The weird part is Meta's positioning itself as the aggregator layer. Not betting on one model by building a platform where any model plugs in. If OpenClaw works, you'd route queries through Meta to whichever model fits best.

They also added "Fast" vs "Thinking" modes (hello, Claude extended thinking) and scheduled tasks for recurring prompts.

For your team: If you wrote off Meta AI, maybe take another look. Browser automation + calendar + model flexibility is a compelling combo.

I genuinely didn't expect to write this sentence: Elon Musk wants to put data centers in orbit.

He just pulled off the largest merger in history with SpaceX and xAI combined at $1.25 trillion. SpaceX brings $1 trillion. xAI adds $250 billion and the plan is to train AI on satellites circling the planet.

The logic actually holds together. AI training needs insane amounts of power. Space has infinite solar. Satellite networks don't require permits in 50 jurisdictions. Whether they can execute is the question, but the strategy isn't crazy.

For your team: Not something you'll integrate with next quarter, but it’s a cool story to talk about.

🌐 Crypto.com drops $70M on AI.com. Most expensive domain ever paid entirely in crypto. Timed for a Super Bowl ad push. The domain used to redirect to ChatGPT. What they're building though is anyones guess. But they've got the best address in AI.

📈 ChatGPT hits 800M weekly users. Altman told employees growth is "back to exceeding 10% monthly" and Codex alone grew 50% in a week. The $40B SoftBank round would make OpenAI the most heavily capitalized startup ever. Anthropic just ran Super Bowl ads making fun of ChatGPT's new ad placements.

⚡ Claude's Fast Mode: 2.5x speed, 6x price. Same Opus 4.6, same intelligence, just prioritized infrastructure. $30/$150 per million tokens vs standard $5/$25. Great for latency-sensitive apps. Expensive for everything else.
