| The Rundown: Design startup Recraft just announced its new V3 AI model, which features precise graphic design skills, text generation, and vector capabilities — and also revealed it was the mysterious 'Red_Panda' AI that surged to the top of the image generation leaderboards in testing earlier this week. | The details: | The model achieved a 72% win rate and 1172 ELO score on the Artificial Analysis leaderboard, outperforming established players like Midjourney and FLUX. Recraft V3 introduces state-of-the-art text generation abilities, allowing designers to create images with accurate text of any size and length. The model also shows improved human anatomy realism, positioning and spacing within a scene, and prompt adherence. The platform emphasizes designer control with features like custom brand colors, positioning tools, and collaborative workflows.
| Why it matters: This Red Panda reveal is a bit of a shocker, with the company ascending to the top tier of image generators seemingly out of nowhere. But with an emphasis on designer control alongside a top-tier model, Recraft may unlock new creative precision that marks the next leap in AI-assisted design. |

| The Rundown: Boston Dynamics just unveiled new footage of its electric Atlas humanoid robot sorting automotive parts, showing off new autonomous and real-time adaption capabilities. | The details: | The all-electric Atlas showcases fully autonomous navigation and manipulation, moving engine covers between bins without human input or pre-programming. Atlas uses machine learning and an array of sensors to adapt to the environment in real-time, including detecting bin locations and adjusting to failed insertions. The demo arrived shortly after Boston Dynamics' partnership announcement with Toyota Research Institute earlier this month. Boston Dynamics previously showed off Atlas' strength in a demo video of the humanoid robot performing pushups.
| Why it matters: Robotics and auto manufacturing seem to be a perfect match, with deployments from industry leaders in factories nationwide. Elon Musk just predicted that there will be 10B humanoids by 2040 — and with Boston Dynamics, Figure, Optimus, and others, the race for commercial humanoids is accelerating fast. |

| | OSMO AI | |  | Image source: Ideogram |
| The Rundown: Osmo just announced the successful achievement of 'scent teleportation,' showcasing a demo in which an AI analyzes, digitizes, and reproduces the smell of a plum. | The details: | The company demonstrated full scent digitization using a plum as a test subject, creating an exact replica of its smell without human intervention. The process combines gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, and AI-driven analysis to create a digital 'scent fingerprint.' Osmo's proprietary AI system uses the world's largest scent database to map and recreate molecular compositions. The company is planning public demos of the tech and is considering releasing a limited-edition fragrance of their first teleported scent.
| Why it matters: While photos, videos, and audio have been digital for decades, smell has never joined in on the fun — until now. Osmo's breakthrough could transform everything from entertainment and communication to remote experiences and illustrates that seemingly anything can be digitized with the right combination of AI and engineering. |
