Today, we cover ByteDance's new AI video model Seedance 2.0, which is going viral for its cinematic quality and synced audio. We also break down the OpenClaw (MoltBot) security controversy, Apple's confirmed entry into AI hardware, and a Harvard study that finds AI is actually increasing employee workloads.

Strategic Pillars & Key Topics:

🎥 Generative AI Video

• Seedance 2.0: ByteDance's new model stuns with 2K resolution, 15-second clips, and native audio. It's surpassing rivals like Kling 3.0 and moving the frontier of AI video.
• Waymo World Model: Waymo uses Google's Genie 3 to simulate rare driving scenarios (like tornadoes) to train its self-driving fleet.

🛡️ Security & Open Source

• The OpenClaw Paradox: The viral open-source agent (MoltBot) has racked up massive security incidents. While vendors panic, defenders say it's exposing flaws that proprietary tools hide.
• Claude Desktop Exploit: A zero-click vulnerability in Claude Desktop extensions could expose over 10,000 users via a malicious calendar invite.

🍎 Hardware & Big Tech

• Apple's AI Devices: Tim Cook confirms Apple is entering the AI hardware race. Rumors point to smart glasses or AI earbuds (potentially with cameras) developed with OpenAI and Jony Ive.
• OpenAI Hardware Delayed: The Jony Ive-designed device (codenamed "Dime") is pushed to 2027 due to a trademark lawsuit from startup iyO.

📉 Business & Policy

• Harvard Workload Study: A new study finds AI tools increased employee workloads, leading to broader roles and blurred work-life boundaries.
• Digital Casinos: Meta and Google face a trial in LA over whether their apps are designed to be addictive "digital casinos" for children.
