      In a system that ask you to hate, look down on, oppress “the bad guys”, we are not letting others shine. Its like showing up to a waste plant looking to find shiny stuff. Our governing system is legislated to make waste.
      Don’t believe me?
      -Largest Prison population on the planet. We beat counties with 3-4x our population. Per Capita we far exceed any other country.
      -Are jails and prisons are NOT a “correctional facility”. Yes, is the worlds BEST networking system. One is put in the same place with all forms of others undesired behavior…and you get to KNOW them for months/years. WE LITERALLY manufacture crime in our system.

      I can go on, but if you are receptive and considerate you already know. Everyone else just makes excuses.
      Making other shine, if done wrong in a system of oppression/lies/excuses, feels like someone is blowing smoke up your rear end.
      No Im not being negative, to shine you also need to know the streets are intentionally made into mud.

      The NBA has the best players so it makes sense. and every basketball player around the world wants to make it in the NBA. Plus there are a lot of international players in the NBA.

AI-generated video has gone from novelty to creative tool in AI-generated video has gone from novelty to creative tool almost overnight, and Runway has a front-row seat to the shift. The New York-based company has raised close to $860 million at a $5.3 billion valuation, and its models are going toe-to-toe with the most well-funded labs in the world, including Google and OpenAI.

And the technology goes way beyond making videos: it’s now pushing into general world models with applications in gaming, robotics, and maybe something closer to general intelligence.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, host Rebecca Bellan sits down with co-founder and CEO Cristobal Valenzuela to talk about where video generation goes from here, and why Runway’s ambitions now reach well beyond Hollywood.
