This time, it is a major success for Higgsfield AI, the Kazakhstani startup founded by Yerzat Dulat, whose team is building what seemed impossible only recently.
On March 31, Higgsfield AI introduced a new model that brings images and videos to life by adding sophisticated camera techniques.
Users immediately began experimenting with the model, animating photos and memes as well as scenes from iconic films and reshooting them in a new style.
The results followed quickly:
Congratulations to Higgsfield and the entire team
We believe this is only the beginning!
If you are finishing school and planning a career in machine learning and AI, consider an undergraduate degree at Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI) in Abu Dhabi. Many members of our community already study there in Master's and PhD programs.
The undergraduate school opens for the first time this year with two programs: a BS in AI for Business and a BS in AI for Engineering.
This is a four-year 3+1 program, with the final year spent in an industry internship. An Exceptional Talent track also offers a scholarship covering living costs and tuition of $45,000 per year.
If you are applying to the Exceptional Talent Track, you can also contact me for a recommendation that may strengthen your application. Send your CV and motivation, and I will be happy to tell you about the university where I am currently pursuing my PhD.
Happy Nauryz!
