Here are 5 AI tools/guides I found to be really useful to share with you this week:


Nvidia’s Cosmos: A New Generative Art Platform


I just got back from vacation when Nvidia announced Cosmos, their new generative art platform! It looks incredibly promising, especially based on initial tests. Cosmos can predict accurate physics and real-world simulations, making it a powerful tool for developers. While it’s currently geared toward developers, it could soon become a game-changer for AI enthusiasts like us.

Trellis: Generate 3D Models with AI for Free


I was blown away when I first explored Trellis! This large 3D asset generation model, developed by Microsoft, lets you create stunning 3D models for free. You can access it via Hugging Face or install it locally to use with ComfyUI.


Exciting news: My next video, where I’ll use Trellis to create a 3D animation short, is launching soon—stay tuned!


In the meantime, you can try it yourself:

ComfyUI: Your Guide for 2025


One of my personal goals for 2025 is to master ComfyUI for my upcoming projects. If you’re looking to dive in too, I highly recommend the beginner’s guide from RunComfy. It’s an incredibly detailed walkthrough of every node and feature in ComfyUI.

Magnific AI is leveling up their game again! Known for their amazing upscaler, they’ve now released a new state-of-the-art image generation model called Super Real.
