TODAY IN AI
Runway unveiled Solaris, a model that renders websites and apps as live interactive video instead of running code, a category it calls an Interface World Model. Early access is limited and Runway is open about what it cannot do yet, including reliable text rendering. The platform also added ByteDance's Seedance 2.5, whose launch video pulled 7M+ views for its intense realism.
Clipto raised $15M at a $250M valuation for software that finds files on your computer when you describe them instead of naming them. Processing runs locally so your data stays on the device, with cloud as an option, and it is available on Mac, Windows, iPhone, and Android.
