i asked a gundo engineer what drives him to work his 11+ hr sesh… “when you have faith in God, knowing that every worry is taken care of by Him, you have no option but to approach the day with indescribable vigor” its genuine all-american patriotism, faith, and grit 🇺🇸🦅

Whaat! 4D monocular is on track to being solved? Using segmentation and in-painting models, go from a single video to a 4D GSplat of the environment. Will spatial video become the new norm in the near future? Hopefully apple builds this into the next iphone.
