We've seen several agentic style wrappers built around existing LLMs recently. Let's see if Deep Agent can stand out from the crowd. Midjourney has just released a new user interface that makes it look more like a fully fledged editing tool than a mere image generator.

In an increasingly competitive market, this kind of functionality could really help Midjourney to stay on top. Krea have launched an amazing new 3D scene creation tool called 'Stage'. This new tool allows users to create a scene and then fill it with 3D models entirely from text prompts.

Each model can then be individually manipulated to get everything perfect. You can try it for free right now over at Kreas's site. And finally, a TED video has been published showing a live demo of Google's prototype AI smart glasses. Powered by the Android XR platform, these glasses feature a miniature heads up display and leverage Google's Gemini multimodal AI capabilities to produce some amazing results.

In the video, the system is able to recall where various objects are and overlay a 3D map for directions to a location. If you want to integrate your tech more tightly into your life but aren't quite ready for a brain chip, this might be the answer.
