We Tested The Mystery AI That Showed Up Out Of Nowhere

AI news this week: a mystery AI called 0x Alpha appeared out of nowhere. It's completely free (for now), it's really good at coding, nobody will say who made it. So obviously we tested it. On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into where 0x Alpha might have come from, the continual learning conspiracy theories, and exactly how you can try it yourself right now for free. Then Gavin spends fifty hard earned Patreon dollars testing MiniMax H3 Max, the supposedly super fast new AI video model from Fal, and... look, we'll just tell you what happened. Also: the World Humanoid Robot Games happened in Beijing, and it was the greatest event in AI For Humans history. A robot sprinter beat Usain Bolt's 100m time, robots set high jump and long jump records, and a whole lot of other robots fell down in ways that will make you feel much better about the future. Plus: Mr. Beast quietly goes back to AI thumbnails, Dr. Dre has thoughts about AI and creativity, Delta wants AI to set your ticket price, someone seeded a fake product to the top of ChatGPT's recommendations, and Apple Messages may be blocking ChatGPT. And an AI See What You Did There with week four of the fishing game built entirely with AI and all of San Francisco as a playable video game. NOBODY MADE IT. EVERYBODY'S TESTING IT. WE'D LIKE TO EAT SOME WORMS.   // Show Links // 0x Alpha, the mystery model free on OpenRouter https://openrouter.ai/stealth/ox-alpha https://x.com/opencode/status/2090544355824038300?s=20 Rumors 0x Alpha is "continually learning" (and the doubters) https://x.com/Bhavani_00007/status/2091936998730940699?s=20 The continual learning "conspiracy" https://x.com/Hesamation/status/2092157700608053751?s=20 https://x.com/TimJayas/status/2091779605921460563?s=20 Gavin's Claude Code called 0x Alpha cocky https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2092106801638760591?s=20 MiniMax H3 Max, post-trained by Fal https://x.com/gorkem/status/2091945568411255288?s=20 The H3 Max promise https://x.com/gokayfem/status/2091991790219841875?s=20 Magnific's MiniMax H3 Max promo https://x.com/magnific/status/2091922612989706432?s=20 Free two weeks of MiniMax H3 https://x.com/MiniMax_AI/status/2091948930124947941?s=20 Ink/smoke graphic prompt to try https://x.com/techhalla/status/2091483350934397091?s=20 Convert 16x9 to 9x16 prompts https://x.com/Framer_X/status/2091964772656799810?s=20 Create sprites & animations for games https://x.com/andrew_n_carr/status/2091560238558429560?s=20 A robot sprinter beat Usain Bolt's 100m time https://www.cbsnews.com/news/china-robot-usain-bolt-sprint-run-record-faster/ https://x.com/EHuanglu/status/2091213372717179143?s=20 Did robots discover a new running method? https://x.com/ErenChenAI/status/2091714982572409241?s=20 https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202608/1368875.shtml?ref=explainx Standing high jump record https://x.com/RT_com/status/2091204407954178459 Long jump record https://x.com/ViralRushX/status/2091811768364605512?s=20 Weightlifting fails https://x.com/WHRGFUN/status/2091897948787372368?s=20 Obstacle course fails https://x.com/WHRGFUN/status/2092011943594737838?s=20 https://x.com/clankrmedia/status/2091862394146312291?s=20 Faceplant off the box https://x.com/takumi_k_jpn/status/2091796599924220077?s=20 Robot dance fail https://x.com/pianhangx/status/2091934123019637157?s=20 Gavin's robot tennis fail video https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2091366474984390872?s=20 Mr. Beast back to AI thumbnails (sorta) https://x.com/mws/status/2091631742411022670?s=20 Dr. Dre on AI https://x.com/Variety/status/2091515812087480538?s=20 Delta to use AI for dynamic pricing https://x.com/HedgieMarkets/status/2090855841050120512?s=20 Week 4 of the fishing game made entirely with AI https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1vxdnw6/week_4_of_making_my_fishing_game_entirely_with_ai/ All of San Francisco as a video game https://x.com/cdngdev/status/2091909073038082139?s=2
