Grimes County commissioners voted 4-1 to grant the company a tax increment reinvestment zone and tax breaks for the $55 billion project east of College Station.

Today, we’re launching Reve 2.0, the best 4K image model in the world.
We invented a new way to generate and edit any image using precise layouts. For the first time, it’s possible to create images you can touch.
Today we gave Julius $1,000 on Robinhood to manage a portfolio.
We are going to be checking in daily for portfolio rebalancing and new picks.

Introducing: Walrus Memory. 🦭
A portable memory layer that lets your AI agents carry context across every app you run them in.
No more starting from zero.
No more being locked into one platform.
Portable, verifiable, and fully under your control.
Take your agent's memory anywhere:
Today, we’re excited to introduce Miso One, the most emotive voice model in the world.
Miso One is an 8-billion-parameter text-to-speech model for highly expressive speech generation. It emotes like a human and responds faster than a human, with just 110 milliseconds of latency.
We’ve open-sourced the model weights, with API access coming soon.
Hear how Miso One sounds in the thread below.
Today we’re introducing Gemma 4 12B — our latest open model that brings advanced agentic reasoning, vision and audio directly to your laptop.
It delivers performance nearing our larger Gemma models with a much smaller total memory footprint, while being small enough to run locally with just 16GB of VRAM. It’s open and accessible for everyone to use under a permissive Apache 2.0 license.
This is all made possible by our new, unified architecture that removes separate multimodal encoders. Here’s how we did it 🧵
