out of bite dance. They actually are getting some serious heat from Congress, which is calling on them

0:45.6

to shut down over basically a lack of guardrail. So we're getting into all of this on the podcast

0:50.7

today. We're going to do a deep dive on the seed dance story in particular.

0:54.6

Before we get into all of that, I wanted to mention some huge news for my startup, which is AIbox.a.I. We have just launched video on our platform. So in the past, you know that you got access to over 40 of the top AI models all in one place. You could kind of chat with them in a playground. We had image, text, and audio, and we have officially now added video. So we have two models from

1:14.6

BytDamp. all in one place. You could kind of chat with them in a playground. We had image, text, and

1:10.9

audio, and we have officially now added video. So we have two models from bite dance. There's seed

1:15.6

dance. We have the three different models from Google, V02, three fast, and three. We have two

1:21.8

different models from opening eye, including SORA 2 and Sora 2 Pro. And we have Pixiverse V5

1:27.3

from Pixverse. So there's a ton of amazing video models that are now on open or now on AIbox.AI. If you don't have a subscription already, you can get it for $899 a month. Super cheap, way cheaper than any of the other platforms. So you get access to 78 different AI models. Guys, in the past, you've heard me say 40 models a million times. I'm actually kind of stuck in that, but we keep adding new models. And I just counted right now, we're at 78 new models on AI box, everything from text, image, audio, video, more announcements coming, tons of new features. Subscriptions are going crazy. And we actually doubled revenue last month, which is amazing. But if you want to check

2:18.3

They're doing this to all of their US users.

2:20.3

So basically they're pushing Gemini a lot deeper into the Google ecosystem. And I mean, I thought it was pretty embedded in there. I've actually been impressed because I've been calling on them to do this for like over a year now. But basically they're going to let it personalize responses using connected data from your

2:34.7

Gmail, from your Google Photos. I think what's interesting here is it's not just kind of this

2:38.9
