Adobe has added a generative AI tool to Lightroom on iOS, iPadOS, and Android that can open closed eyes in photos with a single tap. When the app detects closed eyes, it surfaces an Open Eyes Quick Action directly over the image for quick access. Unlike older approaches to the same problem, this feature relies on generative AI rather than borrowing replacement eyes from a separate photo.
Runway has joined Anthropic's Claude Marketplace, giving enterprise users access to Runway's video, image, and audio generation tools directly within the Claude ecosystem. Teams can now apply their committed Anthropic spend toward Runway Creative capabilities.
NVIDIA has released Cosmos3-H-Dreams, a generative simulation model designed to produce realistic video of clinical surgical environments. The model is hosted on Hugging Face and represents a focused application of NVIDIA's Cosmos platform toward medical and procedural training scenarios. By synthesizing plausible surgical footage, the system opens possibilities for training both human practitioners and AI models without requiring access to live operating rooms.
Director Cassandra Brooksbank resurrected a shelved AXE commercial - originally pitched to The Martin Agency in 2021 and killed by budget constraints - using the AI filmmaking platform Absurd. The resulting 60-second spec spot, "For Days That Run Hot," was built using the same production disciplines she applies to live-action work: written treatment, character casting, location scouting, storyboarding, and an editorial pass in Premiere. The project offers a detailed look at how a working commerc
