We Tested Infinite AI Video... And We're Zombies Now
Episode 192
Wednesday, 2 September, 2026
AI news this week: MiniMax H3 Max on Fal is generating video faster than you can watch it, powering never-ending real-time channels (Fal Live, Levels.io's Infinite Slop, Reactor) and we're already breaking it.. On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell go hands-on with what real-time video actually makes possible. Gavin took an open-source interactive game demo, some Fal credits, and a POV dating sim and turned it into something very weird, and we'll show you what worked, what broke, and what it cost. Plus Runway's new Solaris model generates entire interfaces on the fly, and someone built a chatbot running at 14,000 tokens a second. Also: Sam Altman is out preaching about OpenAI's new Astra model, which may drop this week, and the leaks are leakin'. Plus: Gavin handed his personal data to three different AI agents, including hot new startup Instinct, which found him a weird concert and a list of podcast bookings (and we may have a few invite codes to give away). Codex mass-edits a Google Calendar and Kevin finally plays the custom-trained MiniMax Music LoRA you asked for (all three of you). And an AI See What You Did There with The Office in Claudish, famous people falling on each other, and Jenny Krakovsky's feature film finished in 50 days. THE SLOP-AGGEDON IS UPON US. TURN YOUR AIRPODS UP TO 11. // Show Links // MiniMax H3 MAX Free Gen Page https://fal.ai/tools/minimax-h3-max Gavin's MiniMax H3 Max real-time test (it's very fast) https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2093098167906758734?s=20 Gavin's follow-up: the toms https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2093746610849403017?s=20 Fal Live, two never-ending channels https://fal.live/chaos Levels.io's Infinite Slop http://levels.io/infinite-slop Glitch platform https://x.com/thefirst_ad/status/2094442316086039004?s=20 Reactor https://live.reactor.inc/ H3 Max now supports video references https://x.com/fal/status/2094527664040124764?s=20 Interactive games with H3 Max (the GitHub Gavin started from) https://x.com/BlendiByl/status/2094337649859523015 Gorgeous website mockup made with H3 (prompt included) https://x.com/ShamsAmin56/status/2093710509858328605?s=20 Runway Solaris, a model for generated interfaces https://runway.com/news/research/introducing-solaris OpenAI Astra samples (supposedly) https://x.com/chetaslua/status/2094472807908569356?s=20 https://x.com/lyraxana/status/2094600793789694346?s=20 https://x.com/GaricaRosen6779/status/2094727306766111126?s=20 https://x.com/pankajkumar_dev/status/2094399865971450286?s=20 Astra makes Terraria https://x.com/alexgetmancom/status/2094762443310272735?s=20 Omarchy AI Operating System https://omarchy.org/ Instinct: The AI Agent Messaging System https://app.instinct.co/login PRE-ORDER KIM PURCELL'S BOOK FOR YOU OR YOUR LOVED ONES https://kimpurcell.com/books/write-a-novel-in-100-days The concert Instinct found for Gavin https://tabularasa.itm.studio/m/tabula-rasa-presents-ramonpang The Office but everyone speaks Claudish https://x.com/venturetwins/status/2094536157686387114?s=20 Famous people punch each other and fall down https://x.com/sadlemonjuice/status/2094017087484092810?s=20 Jenny Krakovsky finished her feature film in 50 days https://x.com/jennykrakovsky/status/2094394793451200630?s=20 // Join the AI For Humans community // Join the AI For Humans Discord https://discord.gg/muD2TYgC8f Support AI For Humans on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/AIForHumansShow Subscribe to the AI For Humans newsletter https://aiforhumans.beehiiv.com/ Follow AI For Humans on X: @AIForHumansShow https://x.com/AIForHumansShow Follow AI For Humans on TikTok: @aiforhumansshow https://www.tiktok.com/@aiforhumansshow Speaking and booking https://www.aiforhumans.show/
